When I competed in Indiana’s climbing competition I was a nobody from nowhere with 1 year experience climbing from watching YouTube videos. I don’t ever recall being asked if I was a professional arborist? I came in dead last and learned so much that it propelled me forward with so much more...
A Redwood will always produce another Redwood. It may vary slightly and evolve in its makeup slightly, but it will ALWAYS produce another Redwood. It cannot produce an Oak, or an Elm, or a Spruce or some completely brand new kind of tree. It’s just not possible and there’s no evidence to prove...
I have really been enjoying this thread. The bottom line is debate is an essential part of science moving forward. If we can’t debate and share ideas then there will be no advancements. This thread is a wealth of knowledge on tree felling and I have gleaned A LOT!
However, I was too impatient...
I’ve been studying Philippians for the past 3 months and one of the verses I’ve been meditating on is Philippians 1:29,
“For you have been given not only the privilege of trusting in Christ but also the privilege of suffering for him.”
Paul says that it is a “privilege” to suffer for Christ...
I think the trouble with sowing and reaping is that we often think that we will be blessed now if we are obedient and follow Jesus. The truth of the matter is, Jesus promises us that if we love Him and follow him then we will be treated by the world the way he was treated. We will suffer...
A fish is a fish. Micro-evolution is clearly noticeable in the world. We’re looking for proof of macro- evolution where one organism becomes something completely different.
It’s not the Creators fault the world is broken, it’s ours. But you’re shifting off topic. We were discussing a YE and my point was it’s harder to believe in a world accidentally created than a world that was created by design.
- Would you be able to provide evidence for something coming from...
@rico you’re missing the point. With a Designer and Creator of our world all of those examples you share are very possible and not unimaginable. However, without a Designer, it’s just not possible to have the world that we have.

You replied to none of my questions because you have no answers. Allow me to illustrate where I’m coming from:
You are driving down the road and happen upon a trail that leads into the forest. You decide to walk that trail. The trail winds through the woods and every now and then opens to some...
The truth of the matter is, the burden of proof is not on a YE viewpoint. We have the truth of the Word of God which clearly explains how the earth was formed. As you examine the world around you it confirms what Gods Word says.

Sorry for bringing up such an old thread, but I’m just going through all the old crane discussions page by page (I’m on page 10 of 57). My question is, I would really like a new crane TIP. I thought this one from GAP arborist supply would be a good simple option but this thread brings up a lot...
This is the best advice in this thread in my opinion. CLEAN EQUIPMENT! He didn’t say “new,” just clean. If you buy used equipment, budget in the cost to repaint them. Our company has never paid for leads or marketing. We spend our money on nice equipment and a high quality website. We work hard...
Did someone mention tie in point forces? I thought it was mentioned but don’t see it on the list of 10. SRS with basal anchor doubles forces on the tie in point.
