Thank you for noticing. I like to be original. Following what everyone else
does is like being a sheep.
>>>Contrary to Glenn's statement that "this is a case where a conclusion
can be drawn only if one limits the possible answers," the question "what
is missing?" is really a leading question. The question leads one to
assume that something is missing when there is nothing missing at all. It
prejudices or biases any answer developed. The problem is not the data but
the question. The proper question should be: "What do you see?" When we
ask proper questions, we are able to push ahead with better understanding.
This is science, is it not..to see what is there?
What is missing? Nothing. It is the wrong question and the only way to
answer it is to bring the question into question. <<<<
So does this mean that as a YEC you are asking the wrong questions?
