Thrash! Where's evidence! Mere Assumption.
The evidence that might be disprove by new modern science to come...
Bible never stated that the Earth was 6000yrs, but that Man's lifespan started 6000yrs ago.....
Man was the last thing created... The Creation took a long time....
The days stated by the Bible is not thesame with this 24-hour time... The Bible states, a day in the Eyes of God is thousands of years in the eyes of Man....
I rest my case.

But you do know man has been around longer than 6000 years

It really is a sad one that African leaders of the slavery era never saw dignity in their own kinsmen and this could sell them for money. It's even sadder that today the same thing persists. African leaders of this generation see no worth in their kinsmen and have kept them in perpetual slavery to poor and woeful infrastructural developments, inadequate education and a terrible standard of living. What's wrong with us as a race? What!?
Bro,most times when I wake up in d morning,I keep asking myself dat question.. Its absurd,really.

153. The Spanish national anthem has no words.
Liar.
This is the Spanish national anthem

¡Viva España!
Cantemos todos juntos
con distinta voz
y un solo corazón.
¡Viva España!
Desde los verdes valles
al inmenso mar,
un himno e hermandad.
Ama a la Patria
pues sabe abrazar,
bajo su cielo azul,
pueblos en libertad.
Gloria a los hijos
que a la Historia dan
justicia y grandeza
democracia y paz.

The official anthem has no lyrics http://www.reuters.com/article/2008/01/16/us-anthem-idUSN1610811820080116

Re: Some Interesting Facts About The World. by Nobody: 7:45pm On Apr 17, 2015

Pls explain

A piece of paper is approx 0.1mm thick. If you fold it 42 times, it means adding 0.1mm+0.1mm+2(0.1mm)+4(0.1mm)... continuously 42 times. In math language, that's a+ar+ar^2+ar^3...ar^41. That's a geometric series(not a factorial as I said before sorry lipsrsealed) which has the formula s=a((1-r^n)/(1-r))
s=the thickness of the 42 folds
a=0.1mm(thickness of paper)
r=2(since when we fold it, it doubles)
n=42
So... s=0.1((1-2^42)/(1-2))
s=0.1(1-4.4e+12)/-1)
s=0.1(-4.4e+12/-1)
s=4.4e+11mm
That is 440,000,000,000mm which is 440,000km. The distance from the moon is 380,000km so it's even less. smiley

I guess you mean mercury boils at 430°C and freezes at -180°C which makes it a better choice for thermometers than alcohol. ( Boiling and freezing points )

[quote
author=joeblac07 post=29443424]13. The Earth is 4.56 billion years old
the same
age as the Moon and the Sun.

The holy book of Christians say otherwise. The Bible posits that the
earth is about 6,000 years old.

So are you gonna believe what the Bible says by faith or are you gonna
belief what science has proved so clearly, by evidence. [/quote]


...since recreation sir.

Study the bible well.

I may not be able to tell you the problem of the African leaders as at then, But am sure that the problem of the current black race is RELIGION. The black race is the most religious yet the most impoverished continent on earth.


how on earth can you follow real life issues with faith instead of PRACTICALS.

my one cent!

u'll be shaking it until it falls of. in the begining God created the heavens (and) the earth was without form and void. d word "and" there does not specify how long it took the earth to become formless and void. he made the angels and satan before it was formless. look here's my number 08071129778. call me and get more insight. I'll b glad 2 share mysteries with you

That's what the white man forced our fore fathers to accept. If your fore fathers had colonised the Whiteman you would be giving a different version by now depending in your tribe. One thing is certain, God exists but as for how the earth came to be, well keep knocking yourselves out. No disrespect intended all the same.

am not saying the scientist info abt d earth's age is correct, all am saying is dat, Gen 1:1 is d creation, but 4rm verse 2 is d recreation. take note in d begning God created the Heaven and d earth, and what made the earth 2 bcome formless. twas d battle in heaven btwn micheal and satan and demons.

we arent told how long this could have been. so all am saying is dat d earth is ova 6000yrs old
