Science has found that the Earth is older than the sun.
The Bible stated the Earth was older than the sun before science proved it.
I win.
[After his posting sources and his sources being debunked, with material already accounting for the following reasoning:]
Your sources are wrong. You also leave out the fact that the current age is an underestimate, since scientists believe the Earth is actually much older than that because it recycles its own mass. So I still win.

"Science has found that the Earth is older than the sun."
Yeah, I don't think so, pal. Tell me, how did the Earth form without the gravitational pull of the Sun? Let me guess, god got out his magic dustpan and broom and swept it all together, right?
"The Bible stated the Earth was older than the sun before science proved it."
Well, you're half correct. It's not the half I'd want to be right about but I'm sure you don't really care.
"I win."
Not with ideas like that.
"Your sources are wrong. You also leave out the fact that the current age is an underestimate, since scientists believe the Earth is actually much older than that because it recycles its own mass."
I believe this is the first time I've heard of the Earth 'recycling' it's mass. I'm not even sure what that's supposed to mean.
"So I still win."
Congratulations. Next time try competing against someone; you may find it more challenging than simply tossing things out and declaring yourself the winner.
Argument by assertion in almost pure form. This person seems to think that he can just declare something at random and have it be true. Even faced with evidence of what scientists actually say, he claims that scientists don't claim that at all, but actually claim just the opposite so that his own random BS is true. That's just sheer fabrication, and not even very lucid fabrication at that.
Science has found that the sun is older than the earth. You lose. Your sources are wrong, and bronze age myths don't count as sources anyway. You also leave out the fact that you are a retard and don't understand any word that has more than two syllables or any sentence that has more than 5 words. So you still lose.

OK - so evolution isn't science because the fundies claim you can't observe the evolutionary process in a classroom. How then do they jump to the scientific conclusion that the Sun is older then the Earth? Did they personally observe this?
Send the Fundies to the Sun and let them observe it at close range!
No, scientists don't believe the earth to be older than the sun, so, no, you don't win.
Science has found that penguins are orange, 10 feet tall, and eat yaks. The Holy Drivel of St Hovind the Wanker states that the Invisible Pink Unicorn made giant yak-eating penguins before science proved it.
I win. You lose. Your "God" is a blasphemy against the Almighty Single-hornedness. You shall burn for all eternity for your apostasy.
See how easy it is to "win" these arguments?
"Science has found that the Earth is older than the sun."
Actually, no.
"The Bible stated the Earth was older than the sun before science proved it. "
So you admit that science proves things when they fit in with your warped views?
"Your sources are wrong. "
When you make a claim like that, you kind of have to back it up.
"You also leave out the fact that the current age is an underestimate, since scientists believe the Earth is actually much older than that because it recycles its own mass."
And this has nothing to do with the age of the sun.
"So I still win."
Because it's all about winning.
"Winning is not just the most important thing, it's the only thing" for Jesus.
At least it gives him a sense of direction.
@That NOS Guy
Nice use of MWARS!
"You also leave out the fact that the current age is an underestimate, since scientists believe..."
This sentence doesn't even make sense. What does he mean by the "current age" if not what scientists currently claim it to be?
Translation: "My sources are right because I say they're right. It doesn't matter that every respectable scientist in the world disagrees. I'm never wrong, I'm the smartest person in the universe, and I'm better than you.
...What's a 'god complex'?"
scientists believe the Earth is actually much older than that because it recycles its own mass Hwaet?

With this guy it's more of a 'god simple'.
"since scientists believe the Earth is actually much older than that because it recycles its own mass"
I have to admit that I have never seen that one before. I'll give him points for inventing a lie on the spot.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
