No, as far as I'm aware CF takes no stance at all on this. If you'd like to add some creationist thread links to this thread, I don't think anyone would complain. No one has bothered to, though. |

Creationist see things as evidence of the Creator.
Some have short tunnel vision, and some open their eyes to see there is more that they know.
Dinosaurs do not discredit anything, unless you are a young earther, of which i am not.
It is indeed sad to see so many so easily lead astray. |

By following the reformation doctrine of sola scriptura we are led astray?

Was Sola Scriptura wrong?
Or was it a case of Interpretatio sub Scientia?

Science studies God's handiwork, it does not suppose science takes precedence over God.
Learning of God from His Word (Bible), His Apostles/disciples or from His handiwork does in no way diminish God. |

He's absolutely right. Sola Scriptura. You didn't know that I was a geocentrist.

The bible teaches that the earth is round in Isaiah 40:22
It is he that sitteth upon the circle (round) of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in
Martin Luther knew the bible didn't teach the earth was flat.
