For instance, The Second Law of Thermodynamics refers to the universal tendency for things, on their own, to “mix” with their surrounding environment over time, becoming less ordered and eventually reaching a steady-state. A glass of hot water becomes room temperature, buildings decay into rubble, and the stars will eventually burn out leading to the “heat death” of the universe. However, the evolutionary scenario proposes that over time things, on their own, became more ordered and structured.
The “Cambrian Explosion” in the “primordial strata” documents the geologically rapid appearance of most major groups of complex animals. There is no evidence of evolution from simpler forms.
NASA’s Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) has taken the best measurement of the age of the Universe to date. According to highly accurate observations, scientists now have the best estimate yet on the age of the Universe: 13.73 billion years.( How do they know this is the best estimate? How do they know the observations are highly accurate?) Its a guess at best. Just because I can only see 40 miles through my telescope, doesn’t mean theres nothing beyond that.
If Evolutionists really want to be as objective as they claim from a scientific viewpoint, they also have to admit evolutions short comings.
Once we get to that point. Then the ‘Objective’ discussions can really begin.

From Monty Python & the Most Holiest of Grails…

Arthur: Consult the Book of Armaments!
Brother Maynard: Armaments, chapter two, verses nine to twenty-one.
Cleric: And Saint Attila raised the Hand Grenade up on high, saying, ‘O Lord, bless this Thy Hand Grenade that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies into tiny pieces… in Thy mercy.’
And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chu —
Brother Maynard: Skip a bit, Brother.
Cleric: And the Lord spake, saying, ‘First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once at the number three, being the third number be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.’
Brother Maynard: Amen.

This is lovely, really. I’m memorizing this for my speech class. And to use against my dear {but Mormon} friend.

Ok, but doesn’t it go without saying that this article only addresses new earth Creationism? Why would you bother pointing out this distinction if the essay doesn’t make an references to old earth Creationism?
