Exactly. A little puzzle for us to figure out. Naturally those bones where brought into existence configured to appear millions of years old. Again, an omnipotent God....
Cheers.;-)
Reminds me a bit of a Computer Science Professor during my freshman year (1979) at University of Illinois:Prof. C.L. Liu. He was very passionate about teaching and became very animated when a class (in this case a bunch of newbies) were misunderstanding a concept. I still remember him running back and forth at the front of the lecture hall declaring "A blank is not nothing! A blank is SOMETHING!!!" He was great.
Well, if you believe in an omnipotent God, then it follows that God could have created EVERYTHING just 15 minutes ago; including your memories, the internet, this website, ad infinitum. No human can prove otherwise.
Sure, Descarte could prove his existence, but could he prove that he had existed at breakfast that morning? Not likely.
