This is from one of my new friends at the Rapture Ready message board. I don't understand it, but I hoped one of you clever people would.
" the mathmatics used to triangulate the position of stars and to determine their distance involve making calculations based on the earths position at opposite sides of it's orbit. the farthest stars that we can accurately measure are about 100 light years away, beyond that it's all speculation.
the method we use to determine that stars are moving away from us is based on the lengthening of the light rays emanating from them into the infrared spectrum, called red shift. it's interesting to note that ALL stars, no matter where they are in relation to the earth, show red shift, indicating they are moving away from the earth. does this mean the earth really IS the center of the universe? why are no stars observable coming towards us?
scientists have recently found that radioactive particles in granite bedrock PROVE that the rock could not have formed by a gradual cooling process. these particles radiate their mass away in seconds after their creation, therefore they would not have left any trace in rocks forming over even a few hours, much less than millions of years.
most evidence concerning creation is hidden and ignored by scientists, sinse putting this evidence forward is a good way to lose you're tenure and be laughed out of the scientific comunity."
