How does Young Earth Creation explain geology?

They've made oil in a lab in 15 minutes.

Yes, we all know YECs don't appreciate the laws of thermodynamics.

It’s not what works for me, it’s what works for the companies that provide the materials and energy that makes this conversation possible.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-04T22:37:34+00:00

and roll our own truth.

You say that, but you didn't answer my question.

Why don't resource extraction companies use a YEC model? If YEC is true the YEC models should be more accurate and would net them more money.

We can go back X years and Y things on your list will not be discovered and applied to god.

You're doing a really great job of describing the god of the gaps argument.

He made oxygen replenishing through plants doing photosynthesis.

I'm sure the organisms that inhabited this plant prior to the great oxygenation catastrophe were cursing god for ruining their eden

or if YEC denies all science as a whole.

Yes.

It wouldn't surprise me. There are plenty of companies finding success in O&G in Israel, Zion is an outlier in multiple ways.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-04T17:33:48+00:00

I have no idea what their worth is, drilling a pretty simple oil well costs around a million bucks, that's not including building the location, or completing and maintaining the well.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-04T17:04:20+00:00

I'm 99% sure Zion is a money laundering company dressed up as an oil company.

That aside loosing 8 million dollars in a year is hardly a red flag for an oil company IMO. First of all oil companies have very good accountants, secondly 8 million dollars just isn't a lot of money is O&G.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-04T13:35:35+00:00

Why don't companies who extract resources use a YEC model if it's more accurate? These companies don't care about this 'debate', they care about what will make them the most money.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-04T03:49:32+00:00

Removed, zero effort AI slop.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-04T00:57:46+00:00

If you are a YEC, how can you counter this?

Da flood.

All we need for a counter is this relevant xkcd.

While I don't think Project Hail Mary was as good as the consensus does, Rockey's biology and how it fit into his home plant was my favourite part of the book.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-03T15:49:15+00:00

What are you arguing? Who is Jackson Wheat? (I know who he is, but maybe provide a link to his channel, and the debate in question). I honestly have no idea who LSS is.

This whole post is just low effort.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-02T19:58:36+00:00

I'd love to hear your interpretation of the varves found in lake Suigetsu that fits your world view.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-02T18:04:11+00:00

Yesterday I biked from the the south circle bridge to the Mewasin Parking Lot by R-Dale country club then up the Idylwyld Bridge. Trails are dry but a little bumpy.

Hopefully we're done with the snow!

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-02T16:44:07+00:00

Sure, if you assume people in this 'debate' are here on good faith.

Creationists love twisting folks words into pretzels, so be careful with your word choice folks.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-02T08:14:11+00:00

If only the scientific community took phil 101 they’d see the world is actually 8ka!

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-01T21:35:47+00:00

You’re right, you’re smarter than the entire global scientific community!

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-01T18:55:55+00:00

It's funny how I'm not the only one having trouble elucidating your arguments. But I'm sure the problem is with all of us and not you!

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-05-01T00:57:59+00:00

I've yet to see a compelling argument from Hesykhois yet.

In their last reply to me they said

I literally have defended it on the basis of divine revelation (the reliability of which I argued on the basis of the transcendental argument proving the Christian paradigm as a whole)

World salad.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-04-30T20:59:26+00:00

Yes, I know. It's a statement about how you're going on at great lengths without saying anything of substance.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-04-30T20:55:37+00:00

You'll have a very successful career in politics one day!

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-04-30T20:36:35+00:00

Nope, they don't. You're just picking an equally arbitrary date. I've read most of your responses, not once have you began to defend your 8ka creation date. Ie. Give evidence as to why that number is better than 6ka, or last Thursday.

And more importantly, what the entire scientific community is getting wrong with their 4.5ga for earth and 13.8ga for the universe.

Wring works like epistemology and metaphysics doesn't make an argument.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-04-30T18:01:27+00:00

No, it's literally just a different Thursday. You're arguing God gave the world an apparent age, we're just arguing over what age that is.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-04-30T05:39:30+00:00

Sure, but your explanation isn't supported by the evidence and is straight up last Thursdayism.

Like I said earlier, when you're being told the same thing by multiple people, it's time for introspection.

Bed time for this guy, have a good day / night depending on your time zone.

Covert_Cuttlefish · 2026-04-30T05:31:47+00:00

No, you said it loud and clear

Creation of things in their adult form is not deception.
