There is not even evidence science has that humans lived at all in the time in question. That does not mean much. They are just pig ignorant either way.
Are you serious? What "time in question?" Biblical times?

Hey, if man could not leave remains what it is you think science is capable of finding??

What? Humans can, and have, left remains. Scientists have found many of them.

But again, you attempt a diversion. What evidence do you have that the claims about ages you've taken from the Bible are true??

Or you could claim the universe was a small hot soup that sailed out of a turtle's rear...so?
Or you could provide evidence for your claims instead of making up claims about other people out of thin air.

You have been shown you have no evidence at all, you have just sullied evidences with God awful beliefs.
Oh, the irony!

If that endless rag of an article did mention the far past, post the relevant bit and only use the link for support. Let's see the proof offered for life spans!! Ha ha

Wow, you are really, really desperate to divert away from your burden of proof. It's amazing.

The time when life first appeared on earth, which included man.

Of course they do and can...now. Irrelevant. Try to focus.

That is a belief. Now if you claim science that says it is wrong pony up.

Oops, you've gone and made another claim that requires backing up.

You just said:

"Hey, if man could not leave remains what it is you think science is capable of finding??"

The fact of the matter is, that human beings can and do leave remains that scientists can analyze. You're the one who brought this up, not I. So take your own advice.

It's a belief. It is not based on evidence. Like I've been saying.

I see you still do not understand how reason, logic and the burden of proof works. I really wish you would learn so we could actually maybe get somewhere.

Bible claims are not science claims. Don't try to use those for an excuse for your absolute failure to defend your pseudoscience.

They do now, so all you need to do is prove that this state or nature existed and..voila...you would have some sort of point! But you can't because it's a belief. It is not based on evidence. It is based on molesting evidence with beliefs like I've been saying.

Too. Much. Projection.

Overload.

Observation is just one of many steps involved in the process of establishing truth. Saying something is not true just because it hasn't been substantiated in the news article or seems hard to believe is even less impressive.
No, it wouldn’t necessarily be false. But saying it is established, is not accurate, either, is it?

I think that TOE can easily be considered "established". The exact details of the tree of species our species is a branch of is definitely a work in progress...and such a fascinating work it is.
Like established religions the TOE has a solid following.

Projection.

No evidence for Jehovah. No evidence for creation. No evidence for a flood.
Just special pleading and unsupported proclamations and sundry logical fallacies.
No science to deal with evidence of these things. Much like a toddler playing with blocks does not have the human genome mapped out.

They are reality claims.

And thus, open to investigation.
Not by a limited physical only science that has no ability to investigate.
And thus far, no evidence or corroboration for the miraculous bible tales have been found.

What would you conclude if you found a lithified basalt flow, with your fake 'different states past' nonsense?

Depends on the location and evidence. I would not conclude it wa laid down in a certain nature such as our present nature automatically.

Lòoking at the sea sediments and basalt going out from the mid oceanic ridge, l would not assume isotope ratios equalled ages. That happens to be a pillar of dating the separation of continents as you may know.

You fail - I do not mean investigate as in test the fake supernatural stuff - but those miraculous events - creation, flood, etc. - should have left physical (and thus investigation-friendly) evidence.
That there is no evidence for these things, then we can dismiss them.

Of course - since your entire religion apparently stands or falls based on whether or not you can find a way to dismiss it.

Great. Not what i asked, and I would definitley not ask you about radioactive decay rates since you pretend they fluctuated in ancient times despite you not having evidence that this is the case.

Science has no means whatsoever to test anything spiritual actually.

As for your false claim that I think radioactive decay fluctuated in the old world..no. Prove their was any decay process at all then?

Because there are no findings.
But nice cop out.

More like a desperate scientifically -illiterate religionist that tries to pretend that things were different in Yahweh's day so as to rescue his failing faith.
