    the answer completely disregards the fact that people who even remotely understand how these things work wouldn’t believe stupid shit in the first place. there are so many ways for this guy to just dismiss this.

    how would you even know, you can’t have studied these for billions of years

    who says lead only can exist in this manner

    what if this is true but god also made lead along with the earth

    etc etc… this is very weak if the goal is really try to convince this guy to look into some things rather than smell your own farts.

      There are many scientists who are strict belivers. They just move the act of creation to the big bang and it’s still in gods plan.

        yeah the insistence that creation must mean it happens in an instant is just demonstrably pointless. we already say god created us. and we know we don’t come into existence in full adult form in an instant. we have a whole birth-baby-toddler-kid-teen-adult transformation. and before that we know there is a whole process in the womb. so when god creates a person he puts an entire process into motion. why can this not be the case for the entire universe? why not evolution? are they saying that god couldn’t have thought of a system? I find it weird.
