Rath the real question is, WHO put those fossils there?

I think the bigger question (for Young Earth Creationists) is how the Hell can we see the Hubble Deep Field image if theu niverse is only six thousand years old, since thte light from the vast, horrifying majority of the universe wouldn't have reached us yet.

But that would be cool too, wouldn't it? Every night, more and more of the sky would come exploding to life.

Khuutra the hubble is just capturing images from God's HHHHHHHDTV.

Young Earth creationists tend to try and get round that fact by asserting that the speed of light used to be much faster, and that it has slowed down over the past few centuries... It's crap to be honest, there is no evidence to even suggest the speed of light has slowed down. did something happen to all the photons at once? Did the laws of physics suddenly change?.

You are makin' that shit up.

I guess when you assume the existence of an omnipotent being, all questions are rendered worthless. It was a good question though Khuutra.

Well to say that there is no evidence the speed of light has slowed down isn't exactly true.

I mean afterall there are some galaxies that are assumed to be moving away from us at speeds faster then light due to the expansion of space.

Theoretically if we were a part of this pehenomena caused by the expansion of space more at one point then another, then theoretically light that was younger would look older.

For example if space worked like a bunched up bedsheet.

 

Not so much the speed of light being faster... but it'd cause the same effects.

 

Not very likely, but i wouldn't rule it out, since there is a lot yet still unknown about space expansion and it's properties.

 

It makes it even more interesting when you realize that means we'll never be able to explore all of space... since large parts of it are actually moving away faster from us then we could ever catch up.

Unless contraction starts at some point Kasz. Then the universe may visit us (but it probably won't feel very nice).

I don't think a speciation event has occurred with dog breeds

But different species can sometimes breed, too (lions and tigers can breed, and so can donkeys and horses)

I would love to know what a cross breed between a lion and tiger looks like.

I don't remember if there was an actual difference between a liger and a tigon (I think they're just different names) but here they are:

I think the difference was that ligers are bread by a male lion and a female tiger and its vise versa for a tigon.
