Isn't a white hole essentially a black hole? I mean I know it emits rather than absorbs but from my understanding time reversal gives it very similar behavior. Things still fall into it.

Also one thing I hate about creation 'science' is their ability to start with an assumption and shoehorn crudely anything that could allow their assumption to be true. It's not how science is meant to be done.

Yeah, it is more or less a black hole. But seeing as we are hazy about what happens in a singularity as it is, I'm sure no-one would be able to give a solid answer about effects from a type of singularity that has yet to be proved or disproved.

...

There are two things about creationist science...

1) They tend to start with the answer and shoehorn evidence to fit. They tend to disregard evidence that doesn't fit and only accept evidence that does.

I could go on all day about perfectly valid evidence I have seen that has been disregarded by creationists, I recall a few weeks back I was talking about evolution here and I proved macro evolution using the fossil record. I then had a reply that said the fossil evidence was not proof of anything because "dusty rocks in the ground don't prove shit". The truth is the fossil record proves a lot and can't really be argued with.

I also recall once that I explained Hubble's law and cosmic microwave background radiation which proved the big bang to angrypoolboy. He laughed at me and then left an extremely rude reply. The truth is he hadn't read what I explained because he knew he wouldn't like it. I know this because a few weeks later we had another thread about the big bang and I wrote pretty much the same post as before, angrypoolboy replied to this post and said he had never heard of cosmic background radiation, despite me telling him about it earlier and him saying it was shit. It's just another case of disregarding evidence because it doesn't fit.

2. Creation science tends to have too many what ifs for me...

What if the speed of light is changing?

What if the fossil records are unreliable?

What if black holes and singularities don't exist?

What if the Universe isn't expanding?

What if space is smaller than evidence suggests?

What if Carbon Dating is unreliable?

What if geological dating is unreliable?

What if the theory of relativity is false?

What if? What if? What if?
