Ouch. Why do I believe the YECs will never get past the headline?

I was thinking the same thing. Never mind the process they came up with
involved acid baths, baking at thousands of degrees and time in a pure
atmosphere of argon. Oh well... at least WE read it.

I have the same hunch.
I think it might be sufficient to ask why the acid bath God used in the
flood didn't kill all the fish, and why the water didn't boil off when
he baked it all to 1400 degrees, and how Noah and company could breathe
in an atmosphere of pure argon...

You are an optimist if you think that.

Well, as long as we're giving aid and comfort to the enemy anyway ;-),
this one set off my Inner Creationist:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4196261.stm
Some choice, carefully-mined nuggets:
"But UV light would destroy all the methane on Titan within 10 million
years if it were not being constantly renewed."
And how is it being renewed? Well, one possibility is that it's being
generated by living organisms -- note how the Evilutionists are now
trying to convince us that life arose on Titan as well (Mars rocks,
anyone?).
And how's this for the "springs of the deep"?:
"However, models of Titan's interior show there should be an ocean about
100km deep at around 300km below the surface."
If it could happen there, it could happen here, right?

<lt.kizhe@gmail.com> drained his beer, leaned back in the alt.atheism
beanbag and drunkenly proclaimed the following
"But UV light would destroy all the methane on Titan within 10 million
years if it were not being constantly renewed."
And how is it being renewed? Well, one possibility is that it's being
generated by living organisms -- note how the Evilutionists are now

One also needs to remember that the intensity of sunlight out Saturn
way is 1/100th of what we get here on Earth. Photodissociation is
much slower.

I gues it's a good thing if I had to think about that for a bit.
