Forums are generally on the decline TW but this one is thriving.  Every day there is something new, so I don't know what you mean.
Facebook and the like, where there is no lively debate, cannot replace forums.
It's good here, on the whole.  Were that not the case we wouldn't be posting, would we?

1056 year gap between Adam and Noah.  Not many babies in the world then?

As Adam over 900 years when he died... I cannot see there would be many babies can you given it started from a population of 2...

Go back to sleep till you can think of something sensible to say...

So very credible, NOT!

TW has come to shed love and light and sunshine upon us all, just as the petals of the cherry blossom fall gently to earth.   How lucky we are!

I believe that in Japan the phrase "the cherry blossoms are falling" is a sensitive euphemism to indicate that a student has failed his exams. I can certainly think of someone who is likely to have failed his exams....

What does the number of babies have to do with it?

I've seen how upset and mad you Christians get at the idea of terminating one single foetus let alone a living, breathing, human baby.

You worship a god who kills babies.

If we were to conservatively say that a generation passed once every 25 years (and when was the last time a generation was 25 years long?), then in 100,000 years a total of 4,000 generations would occur. If the number of people on earth never exceeded 1,000,000 at any one time in the past, then in 100,000 years a total of 4,000,000,000 people would have lived, died and been buried somewhere on earth. This is an astronomical number.

When people are buried, whether or not their bodies are preserved, there are the artifacts left in the graves which identify them as human. Even if the body decomposes completely their jewelry, tools and vessels placed in the grave with them will survive.

Based upon evolutionary assumptions we should be able to dig straight down almost anywhere on earth and hit at least one grave from a prior generation. To date, however, even with all the money thrown into the search for them, we have only found about 300 'Neanderthal' skeletons. They have been found in caves from Spain to Syria to Israel.


ROTFLOL!

Some of TW's posts are quite amusing as they are so very silly, maybe he is favouring a career as a stand up comic, LOL!

Why would it be bad news? Do share, I like a laugh.

Seriously though; surely nobody is actually stupid enough to swallow 'arguments' like this. I mean, really...?

Some extremely gullible people are taken in by the nonsense spouted by TW and his ilk, which is extremely sad.

Do you seriously not see the problems with "Dr." McMurtry's "argument"?

Please give an example of the "waffle", of which you speak, and I will endeavour to clarify...

Hello! Do you speak English?

Well, faced with such an erudite and rational argument, backed up with all that evidence...

Oh no, hang on,  :-\  it was just baseless assertion, as usual...

Actually it was just another of T(roll)W's flat out lies - I posted quite a long explanation of why the "preacher" got it wrong back when he linked to the video.
