That you are a Liar?Genesis Veracity wrote:Ed, you have found an even smaller and goofier straw to cling on, so what is your totally irrelevant point in all this?
Quite relevant, especially since you appeal to your own authority.
So what is the next book? How to Lie About Your Credentials Poorly?

I received a degree in geology from an Ivy League college (see my bio), in other words I'm an Ivy League geologist, so where's the beef?
Oh, I get it, you think I was trying to lead people to believe that I am the head of geology at Dartmouth, or was it that you think I'm trying to masquerade as a staff professor there, or am I supposedly leading people to believe that I'm hunting for oil on Ivy League campuses?

No, it is that you are trying to profess to have professional credentials in geology. You have a degree is all.Genesis Veracity wrote:I received a degree in geology from an Ivy League college (see my bio), in other words I'm an Ivy League geologist, so where's the beef?

OK, Jim. I know you.Genesis Veracity wrote:Ask a concise and informed one.
You have parlayed a knowledge of Geological jargon into a gig in front of audiences that are pretty much sold on everything you say. Whatever you are doing now has got to be better than what you did previously. So you tell these church ladies what they want to hear, the simple life "believe and practice the sanitized words of the good book" etc. They aren't going to call you on your goofs. You are a grifter, you are selling something that you don't have. Do you admire Kent Hovind? He is the same deal but more successful. He lies thru his teeth but it really dosen't matter, does it? Self publishing was a good idea, setting up a publishing company was too. You have your niche and as long as your audiences are ignorant and you don't challenge them too much you have it made.
The only thing that I wonder about, just a bit, is how much you buy into your own line of bullshit. I really don't know the answer to that one. I think of a fraud like John Edwards. I believe that he has bought into what he says a bit.
It is a sad world we live in.

I have to put up with George Bush, which is worse than Dartmouth having to put up with JN. But his degree isn't in geology, to be accurate it is a BS in Earth Sciences, perhaps only a subtle distinction. Here is a description of what you have to do know (15 years after he graduated) to get the degree:
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE EARTH SCIENCES MAJOR, THE ENVIRONMENTAL EARTH SCIENCES MAJOR AND THE EARTH SCIENCES MINOR
The Earth Sciences Major
Prerequisites: Earth Sciences 1 (Earth Sciences 2 or 3 or 5 or 6 may be substituted) and Earth Sciences 34; Chemistry 5 (or 3); Mathematics 3.
Requirements: Earth Sciences 45, 46, and 47; two courses among Earth Sciences 62, 64, 68, or 69; and at least three Earth Science courses numbered 20 and above. Up to two relevant courses above the introductory level from the Division of the Sciences may be substituted for two of the Earth Sciences courses numbered 10 and above as approved in advance by the Chair of the Department. Note: Students will be advised that the following courses are specifically recommended for the Earth Sciences major: Earth Sciences 21, 31, 33, 37, 44, 60, 62, 64, 65, 68, 69. Students should consider the possibility of taking Earth Sciences 44 or 68 during their sophomore year, as these courses afford good preparation for the Off-Campus Program.
All students majoring in Earth Sciences must complete Earth Sciences 87 or 88 or 89 and attend weekly research seminar in Winter and Spring of senior year, in order to fulfill the College's culminating experience requirement.
The Environmental Earth Sciences Major
The Environmental Earth Sciences major is an opportunity to gain a more focused exposure to the study of environmental resources (such as minerals, energy resources, soils, and water) and the processes of environmental change, which will involve various aspects of earth history, geochemistry, biogeochemistry and earth surface processes. Our goal in identifying this major is to educate earth scientists who will be capable of understanding and solving environmental problems.
Prerequisites: Earth Sciences 1 (or Earth Sciences 2, 3, 5 or 6 may be substituted) and Earth Sciences 34; Chemistry 5 (or 3); Mathematics 3.
Requirements: Earth Sciences 45, 46, and 47; two courses among Earth Sciences 62, 66, 67, or 79; and at least three Earth Sciences courses numbered 20 or higher. Up to two relevant courses above the introductory level from qualifying courses in geography, environmental studies, engineering, chemistry and biology (see below), may be substituted for two of the Earth Sciences courses as approved by the Chair of the Earth Sciences Department. Note: Students will be advised that the following courses are specifically recommended for the Environmental Earth Sciences major: Earth Sciences 15, 26, 28, 31, 33, 36, 55, 62, 66, 67, 73, 76, 79; Geography 59; Chemistry 63; Engineering Sciences 37, 41, 43; Biology 23, 25, 26; Environmental Studies 30, 89. Students should consider the possibility of taking Earth Sciences 44 or 68 during their sophomore year, as these courses afford good preparation for the Off-Campus Program.
All students majoring in Environmental Earth Sciences must complete Earth Sciences 87 or 88 or 89 and attend weekly research seminar in Winter and Spring of senior year, in order to fulfill the College's culminating experience requirement.
**Advisory**
First-year students planning a major in either of the two above Earth Sciences majors are advised to elect one of Earth Sciences 1, 2, 3, 5 or 6, Mathematics 3 and Chemistry 5-6 in the first or sophomore year. It is highly recommended that all majors take the required Earth Sciences 45, 46 and 47 sequence (the Fall F.S.P.). However, a student may substitute a summer field methods course offered by another institution and approved by the Chair. Since this course will likely receive one Dartmouth course credit, a student will likely need two additional Earth Sciences courses numbered 10 or above to meet Dartmouth's eight course major requirement.

essan mentioned about three pages ago how so little constructive thought is being plaaced in this thread yet 3 pages zips by. i have to agree with him as i just read the 4-5 pages that were written since i went to bed and the only good post was from essan himself..
i find that G.V. is just making statements that have no proof to them and then refuses to defend his position or provide any information or address questions. he is worse than the interlopers i have chosen to ignore (for my own reasons) and it is frustrating to have to deal with this guy who refuses to substantiate anything he says.
my remarks (about 5 pgs. ago) were not insults but observations of a person who thinks he is beyond reproach and does not need to provide anything than a declatory statement and hopes that everyone falls at his feet in awe. reminds me of bush jr. and his gang of thugs.
i have read a couple of his articles and they are like his posts here, nothing. he may make a good point or two but corroboration, sources,proof,etc., are all missing and undermines his efforts.
i would like to see this thread return to normal as this is just pure garbage that is being posted. this thread is about noah's flood and if you can't stick to the topic please don't post here.

Ed, the little church ladies don't need me for them to love God, wouldn't have it any other way. But when they hear that there is excellent corroborative evidence of the Genesis account in the natural world, well then of course, they often are all ears, do you blame them for that?
What an Edcentric world you live in Ed, anyone who disagrees with you, in your strange way of thinking, must be a fraud.

read the thread title and comprehend for yourself.
that was cruel but he needed to see what he does to others.
if you were a true christian, who could come to this board and actually participated in a manner worhty of the purpose of this place, i probably would have supported you and let you take over this discussion.
as it stands, you are not worthy of being here because you can't present your ideas in a manner that is credible or in line with God's word. it is not easy to do so given the nature of whom you are talking to' and these people know that i fail at times' but all you have done is make yourself look like you are from the lunatic fringe with nothing to do but ruin good debates.
start producing credible links and references to support your ideas and stop hiding behind an undergraduate degree
