How about you ? You can say all you want about the Earth's rotation, but can you disprove all the 140+ years of experimentally and empirically observed evidence in these subjects ?
1 ) Fossils
2 ) Anatomy
3 ) Paleontology
4 ) Geology
5 ) Geochronology
6 ) Genetics
7 ) Radiocarbon dating
8 ) Phylogenetics
Don't worry, once I have more time then I do now for reply-on-the-fly I'll get back to your rotation argument.
Would you like to start with fossils then? By all means, show us all the evidence from fossils!
At the very least, please quote it from your essay. It's very long and you know it better than me.
And, sure I'll wait for you. No rush. You have all the time in the world.
Edit (to your second post):
What other evidence shows that the earth is old? Please don't hesitate to share.
Also, don't forget about the moon argument that you keep avoiding/forgetting.
2nd Edit (to beerbustard):
Maybe you don't understand the difference between the piles of evidence evolution has vs absolutely no evidence you have.
I can site genetics, comparitive anotomy, biology...the list goes on that show proof of evolution in one way or another and it all fits together.
Where is your evidence of this intelligent being?
As for the moon, the proof doesn't lie on us. It lies on you. To prove 2 things.
1. That the moon has always orbited the earth.
2. That the speed at which the earth is slowing down, would mean the earth can't be 4.5 billion years old. (if it just means 4.5 billion years ago our days were 16hours long, it doesn't prove the earth isn't that old)
Then please, site this irrefutable evidence that I was unaware of.
"Where is your evidence of this intelligent being?"
It's all around us. Take for example, chlorophyll, the substance which makes plant leaves green.
Chlorophyll is vital for photosynthesis, which allows plants to obtain energy from light.
Chlorophyll molecules are specifically arranged in and around pigment protein complexes called photosystems which are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. In these complexes, chlorophyll serves two primary functions. The function of the vast majority of chlorophyll (up to several hundred molecules per photosystem) is to absorb light and transfer that light energy by resonance energy transfer to a specific chlorophyll pair in the reaction center of the photosystems. Because of chlorophyll’s selectivity regarding the wavelength of light it absorbs, areas of a leaf containing the molecule will appear green.
The two currently accepted photosystem units are Photosystem II and Photosystem I, which have their own distinct reaction center chlorophylls, named P680 and P700, respectively.[2] These pigments are named after the wavelength (in nanometers) of their red-peak absorption maximum. The identity, function and spectral properties of the types of chlorophyll in each photosystem are distinct and determined by each other and the protein structure surrounding them. Once extracted from the protein into a solvent (such as acetone or methanol),[3][4][5] these chlorophyll pigments can be separated in a simple paper chromatography experiment, and, based on the number of polar groups between chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b, will chemically separate out on the paper.
The function of the reaction center chlorophyll is to use the energy absorbed by and transferred to it from the other chlorophyll pigments in the photosystems to undergo a charge separation, a specific redox reaction in which the chlorophyll donates an electron into a series of molecular intermediates called an electron transport chain. The charged reaction center chlorophyll (P680+) is then reduced back to its ground state by accepting an electron. In Photosystem II, the electron which reduces P680+ ultimately comes from the oxidation of water into O2 and H+ through several intermediates. This reaction is how photosynthetic organisms like plants produce O2 gas, and is the source for practically all the O2 in Earth's atmosphere. Photosystem I typically works in series with Photosystem II, thus the P700+ of Photosystem I is usually reduced, via many intermediates in the thylakoid membrane, by electrons ultimately from Photosystem II. Electron transfer reactions in the thylakoid membranes are complex, however, and the source of electrons used to reduce P700+ can vary.
The electron flow produced by the reaction center chlorophyll pigments is used to shuttle H+ ions across the thylakoid membrane, setting up a chemiosmotic potential mainly used to produce ATP chemical energy, and those electrons ultimately reduce NADP+ to NADPH a universal reductant used to reduce CO2 into sugars as well as for other biosynthetic reductions.
Reaction center chlorophyll-protein complexes are capable of directly absorbing light and performing charge separation events without other chlorophyll pigments, but the absorption cross section (the likelihood of absorbing a photon under a given light intensity) is small. Thus, the remaining chlorophylls in the photosystem and antenna pigment protein complexes associated with the photosystems all cooperatively absorb and funnel light energy to the reaction center. Besides chlorophyll a, there are other pigments, called accessory pigments, which occur in these pigment-protein antenna complexes.
It's unthinkable to believe that a system as complicated from this arose from chance.
Also, if plants are a common ancestor, why has chlorophyll been discarded from the animal kingdom? I know some very good instances in which chlorophyll would be helpful (energywise).
