I swear I am not making this shit up.

Among its debut highlights:

Proceedings of the Microbe Forum, June 2007

The task of understanding and observing the microbial world is daunting when we consider that we have only documented around 5,000 bacterial species. In addition there is much yet to be learned about algae, fungi, macro-parasites, and the enigmatic “chimeric” lichens. Could there be other creatures composed entirely of microbes of which we are unaware? In addition, how do we classify microbes taxonomically from a creation perspective? Do they fit into conventional or baraminic taxonomical convention? How do we view them biblically? What day were they created?

Microbes and the Days of Creation

Some have postulated that microbes were created on a single day of Creation, such as Day Three—when the plants were made. This is partially due to the “seed-like” characteristics that bacteria and fungi have—therefore classifying microbes as plants. In addition, we observe microbes (such as Escherichia coli) isolated in the lab and we tend to think of microbes as individual entities much like birds or fish or animals and, therefore, created on a single day. However, in nature, the vast majority of microbes live in biological partnerships, not in total isolation. The natural symbiosis of microbes with other creatures is the norm. Therefore, we postulate that microbes were created as “biological systems” with plants, animals, and humans on multiple days, as supporting systems in mature plants, animals, and humans.

Catastrophic Granite Formation

The timescale for the generation of granitic magmas and their subsequent intrusion, crystallization, and cooling as plutons is no longer incompatible with the biblical time frames of the global, year-long Flood cataclysm and of 6,000–7,000 years for earth history.

4. You're not making that shit up

But they are. And badly.

[progressoid]

5. Hey it's peer-reviewed!

And by "a large network of well-qualified creationist researchers, scientists, and theologians who are the best thinkers in their fields of creationist research," no less.

So that makes it true!

[and-justice-for-all]

7. pseudoscience marvels!!

:banghead:

[moggie]

8. The best thinkers in creationist research

That's rather like describing someone as the most intellectual rodeo clown, or the most respected crack whore.

6. Oh how they love to try and rationalize their fantasy....

No matter how much they spin this shit, it is still the same shit. If the babble is real, then so is Alice's Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz.

Their fancy gibberous does not give them any more crediablity.
