In this universe. Sure there are plenty of things we don't know about

evidence
for expansion or a mechanism for it. Without either of those, they
don't have a theory.
Claiming that because we don't know everything
that therefore anything is possible is the hallmark of kookdom.
Coming from a quack would expect nothing less than an intimate
knowledge of kookdom.
You are free to show the *factual* error in Stuart's statement.
First, I am not claiming, because we don't know everything that
therefore anything is possible, am showing the ludicrousness of your
position you know impossible.
Yes, you are. You have demanded that I explain the precise nature of
matter and said that since this is not understood, there could be some
way for matter to appear in the Earth and make it expand.
Second, logic demands, something you do not have the first clue how to
use, that possible be assumed, because it is impossible for any line
of reasoning to yield possible from an assumption of impossible.
Another important feature of a proper logical argument is that the
assumptions are correct. Yes, if one assumes that matter can magically
be created, the Earth could expand the way you claim. But that
assumption is wrong.
Your continual quake reply of no evidence is the result of believing
you know impossible. e.g. It just is not possible there could be any
evidence for expansion because expansion is impossible.
"Expansion" is not impossible except insofar as there is nothing that
could make it happen.
Nothing quite like a religious mind set cloaked in science. You are a
quake.
So if you are not religious in your belief of Expanding Earth, then
there exists an argument that will cause you to change your mind and
agree that the Earth is not expanding. What qualities does this argument
possess?
I actually asked you that question almost a year ago and you never
answered. Here it is again, in two parts: What evidence would it take to
convince you that the Earth did not expand? What evidence would it take
to convince you that plate tectonics accounts for the Earth's surface
geology?
You have no answers for this sort of question because your belief in EE
is a deeply held belief that is more religious than anything else.
Out of fairness, I will answer the opposite question. I will accept
Expanding Earth as a viable hypothesis if you can give satisfactory
answers to these questions which I asked you almost a year ago:
http://groups.google.com/group/sci.geo.geology/browse_frm/thread/44c65533
c583cdcd/5f85def84989f383?lnk=gst&q=timberwoof+expanding+earth+questions&
rnum=1#5f85def84989f383
Each of those questions stems naturally from thinking about your (and
DF's) hypothesis and its implications, so you have no call to accuse me
of not considering it.
You'll notice that the thread in which I originally posted that came to
an abrupt end when instead of answering the questions, you asked another
question. It appears that you are the one clinging to dogma and not
considering evidence.
