When Jesus turned water into wine at Cana, how old was the wine as they drank it?Was it just a few minutes old or was it at least several years vintage?
I ask because to become a good wine, ageing is required - and we are told that this was 'good wine'.
This was a relatively minor miracle but it begs a question on a rather larger scale.
The fossil record can only show 'gradual evolution' by postulating non-existent [undiscovered?] transitional forms of which many billions are inconveniently missing.
All other so called, evolutionary scientific disciplines from oceanography to genetics, from coal formation to micro biology are easily attacked by non evolutionary scientists.
What is more difficult is the timelines in space. Billions of years for light to......
Well if all the rest is flawed, how can evolutionary theory hold up its uniformitarian ideals just on this single strand?
Perhaps it cannot. Whilst the scientific evidence for a young universe mounts, as we realise that the speed of light is almost certainly not the constant that many scientists have believed it to be [way beyond my abilities here, I am afraid] - the 'wine at Cana issue' kicks in.
Let us assume that God DID create in just 6 days. Everything would have had an appearance of age - JUST LIKE THAT WINE.
Okay, I am aware that this site has attacked the weaknesses of the evolutionary hypothesis on a scientific base and for once this is not a scientific point. BUT if creation were true, the logic is at least consistent.
Think about it.
