    "..Crisis on January 22/23"~Powell?

    He might have referred to the Permanent Oil Crisis Conference, which will be held on exactly these days. Perhaps Powell already knows some of the data which will be discussed/published there, and it isn't good.

    Archeaological evidence for the Bible

    Could you provide references? I know that at least one famous giant skeleton picture is a fake, it was made specifically for an adobe photoshop contest

    Oil and Coal.

    That's the ones i was referring to, perhaps i should have been more precise. The footprints conclusively demonstrate that that coal deposit was not the result of massive uprooting, downlaying and burial of wood during a single deluge; as anything that could have left footprints there would have...

    Oil and Coal.

    I can't post links yet...google "coalprints", the very first link which comes up...the one on talkorigins. True, there are other theories about the formation of oil, but at least the one involving the noachian deluge is out of the window. Even if the deluge had happened, it could not possibly...

    Oil and Coal.

    Actually it doesn't at all...because there is way too much oil and coal on earth to be the result of a single event. There is enough mineral oil to cover the entire earth in a two feet thick layer. The amount of biomass which would have to have be submerged is even way more than that. That...

    Some problems with evolution

    The error margin is there exactly because it is difficult to measure very low quantities of argon. And traces already should have been there, even after ten years. Just the precise amounth is extremely difficult to measure. Of course it's not. There are individual rare cases in which freak...

    Some problems with evolution

    And exactly that can be checked with isochron dating. You've just defeated your own point then - if it wasn't lava, then it quite clearly has been a while since the matter of that rock was molten the last time. MSH merely ejected it to the surface. Furthermore, due to the slow decay of...

    Some problems with evolution

    Yeah. And every child knows Tom Cruise is a scientologist Potassium argon dating doesn't really measure the age of a rock, but when the material was completely molten the last time. If that sample contained xenoliths or wasn't completely molten, then it can contain excess argon and the date is...

    Why no positive mutation?

    [/color]It seems that i was mistaken about the article that i had in mind, it was about the formation of protocells in a test tube, somehow i must have messed this up with RNA. That's the article that i had in mind: http://www.theharbinger.org/articles/rel_sci/fox.html Not RNA, but...

    Why no positive mutation?

    Thanks for the welcome, Michel! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_E._Shannon A mathematician who laid the foundations of one of the flavours of information theory. His information theory is strongly related to telecommunications things, which is the reason why he defined it that the amounth...

    Why no positive mutation?

    @Victor: You seem to use the term "information" pretty much as Shannon defined it. Shannon's works about the transmission of information at Bell Laboratories. In some way the process of copying a strain of DNA can be considered to be such a transmission of information. However...
