110 mil year old dinosaur mummy discovered.

Looks really cool and reminds me of common depictions of an Anklyosaurus.

You can have as open mind as you want but neither of religious books are in sync with science. It is quite opposite - they are as far from science as "A Thousand and one nights" or "Brother Grimm's fairy tales"

As with all religious texts it depends on the interpretation. Were the "days" in Genesis meant to be literal 24-hour days? Or were they epochs of some unknowable time-frame? Was it 1000 years is a day? Or is that used to simply imply that a day is a much longer time than humans reckon it to be? Much like the use of multiples of 7 or 12 in the bible used to colloquially at that time to imply a "metric-****-ton", as we might say it today.

I find it awesome that it gives us some idea of the actual skin and outer look of the dinosaur, as well as the possibility of knowing the color scheme. I think we have gotten fairly close with petrified imprints of dino-skin that have been found, and such, but to have one "in the flesh" so to speak is fairly awesome.

15 3/4 billions of years are those 6 "days"

Now you can take cosmology, paleontology, archaeology, and look at the history of the world, and see whether or not they match up "day-by-day" with genesis and they DO!

You need to watch more Rick and Morty. Oh, the possibilities of infinite universes/dimensions.

They do not, lol who are you kidding?

Do they explain inaccuracies of religious books?

I am not too picky about days... could be millions of years for all I care, it is is still nowhere close to scientific evidence and facts.

you are a close minded seems like uneducated person, so i am not responding and replying to you anymore!

typical response of a loser who can't back up his ridiculous claims with proper arguments.
So please, tell us if you are so educated - how biblical statement that birds were created before land animals matches with fossil records and all we know about bird evolution?

i gave u an argument about why it isn't one or the other but both.

but you did an ad hominem atttack, so then i am done arguing!


you want the poper argument read my old post about big bang and genesis or read the book i told u about!

of course i could go into it again. but i already went into it! and the author of the book is a far better writer in English than me!

so not going into you attack on biblical statement again! you have a nice day

I read some as I really do not have time to read all of it. It is obviously a book written for religious folks to incorporate scientific evidence into their beliefs and does very poor job of actually convincing scientist or an atheist of Bible's co-existence with science.

This article actually has very detailed and good critique of Shroeder's book and I can't add anything more to it.

https://www.talkreason.org/articles/schroeder.cfm

From article:
Conclusion: Schroeder's attempt to reconcile the biblical tale about six days of creation with scientific data which assert that the age of the universe is about 15 billion years, failed. It was based on a misapplication of the theory of relativity.

What is the Bible's story? It says that the first man walked on the earth roughly 6,000 years ago.

What is the scientific story? It is rather different.

Archeological data indicate that humanlike creatures made tools of stone as early as about 40,000 years ago. Is any animal known to shape stones into tools?

The color pictures of animals had been drawn on rocks as early as about 27,000 years ago (for example, the image of a horse in Pech Merle, France). What animal is known to engage in art?

As archeological data indicate, as early as 23,000 years ago humanlike creatures used to embellish their looks by means of beads attached to their clothing. Is there any animal known to use artificially made clothing and, moreover, to embellish them in any way?

Archeological data indicate that as early as 18,000 years ago humanlike creatures used needles made of bones to sew clothing. Is there any animal known to sew clothing?

Archeological data indicate that the bow and arrow was already in use about 11,000 years ago. Is there any animal capable of inventing and using sophisticated tools such as the bow and arrow?

Archeological data indicate that as early as about 9,000 years ago humanlike creatures already used pottery. To make the pottery, those humanlike creatures used kilns where the temperature reached about 1000 degrees. Is there any animal capable of constructing kilns and, moreover, of making and utilizing pottery?

At about the same time, some 9,000 years ago, the humanlike creatures built settlements occupying over two hectares each, where buildings were used as living quarters and as storage sheds. About 8,000 years ago, the size of such settlements was sometimes up to 15 hectares. The inhabitants of those settlements used artificial irrigation and grew crops. They used seals, which proves the existence of some form of a writing system and of some form of documentation. Are there any animals known for building villages, using artificial irrigation, growing crops, and using a writing system and a documentation?

Finally, one more thing archeology tells us about is as follows: As early as about 8,000 years ago, that is some 2,000 years before the date, when, according to the Bible, the first man, Adam, appeared, humanlike creatures (as, for example, inhabitants of the Sumerian settlement at Tepe Gawra in Mesopotamia) systematically built, in the centers of their villages, religious shrines and temples. Is there an animal, however intelligent, that is known to have any religious concepts?

What we can say with a reasonable confidence, is that the arguments by Schroeder aimed at proving the compatibility of the biblical and the scientific accounts, fall apart at even a perfunctory glance.
