I mean no disrespect to you,
in fact I have very high regard for your opinions and intelligence,
and I don't understand all the intricacies of the model you support,
but it seems to me that that model is just another way of compromising with evolution theory.
Isn't it?
Definately not! The YBC model is the same as the YEC one with regard to all the biology on earth being young and created fully formed in their "kinds". Again, it is a literal reading of Genesis and ALL the creation events. There is absolutely NO compromise to accomodate any evolutionary theory.

Ok. Thanks.

Widows or Widowers... If you're desperate to talk to someone and can't get to a grief group,

I will not support a forum that separates YEC from OEC. It is an unnecessary divide.
Letalis:
No one here truly believes that's a line of demarkation...
the line exists between G-d creating the earth and it's "kinds" as they are now...
__________________________________________________________________
that G-d created the protoplasm and let life evolve from there...
that is the line of difference

Except me, since I am the one who said it.
I was not joking.
This has been my position for a long time.

The problem is that we can't create a sub forum for each position and police it as a "this only" sub forum...
The lines of creationism are just too blurred...Just as keyarch has been so effectively demonstrating with his helpful posts of definitions and descriptions.

The way I understand it the YBC is not just some but all life begins at Creation. It makes perfect sense to me because 'darkness was upon the face of the deep' and the land would appear later. This satisfies my primary condition that Adam is our first parent in accordance with the New Testament witness regarding Adam, original sin and the immutability (not derived from previous species and cannot speciate) of the human species. Of course the originally created kinds would have been a much smaller number of distinct species then we have today but nevertheless the primary parents were specially created, fully formed and marked by limits beyond which they cannot evolve.
I'm not a young earth creationist because any doctrine is effected but because the evidence used by secular scientists does not warrant a choice between young and old earth creation. It does not concern me in the least how old you think the earth is or the universe. The Scriptures are not entirely silent but the age of the earth is not tied to any doctrine I consider essential.
To be totally honest I don't see a dimes worth of difference between a young earth creationist and an young biological creationist, I never did.
Grace and peace,
Mark
