I am fairly new to the C/E debates but seriously into. We do want to train Polish believers in answering evolutionary arguments. We have Biblical Creationist Society in Poland and we plan to expand our conference outreaches.
We see that some of the Kent Hovind's arguments are still valid, but some needs to be updated.
I find a lot of plain lies on evolutionists posts and wander how to deal with that. There are too many of them to answer in the reasonable time.
Greetings

I believe GOD "literally" created the universe in 6 "literal" days. I believe that evolution is so absurd that if it were true what would be the purpose of evolution if we have no purpose to serve? Evolutionists arbitrarily dismiss the preconditions of intelligibility. If you wish to know the irrefutable argument for creation, I highly recommend reading Jason Lisle's book, "The Ultimate Proof of Creation" This is where I learned a lot about Creation vs. Evolution. I have read many other books about the topic and I can logically defend the Biblical Creation from any evolution attack. Just Praise GOD AMEN!

The thought that Genesis is an accurate historical account just seems to make sense to me, and I don't see a compelling argument against it. Ridicule seems to be the main argument against it.
This is how I feel about it too. I was thrown off coarse for a few years bc of the evolutionary lies taught in schools. Ive only recently finally become convinced of a young earth creation account. I agree to that if you take genesis as figurative where do you stop with the rest of the bible? Ive seen it go all over the place with people who take genesis as figurative. Now, saying that, I dont think that is reason enough to believe, I dont believe its enough when discussing with a nonbeliever, witnessing, etc. I like to deconstruct the evolution myth. I like to look at the evidence presented by evolutionists and oec and come to conclusions myself. What I find interesting is that they dont teach critical thinking skills when it comes to teaching this kind of science. They say that they have the evidence, you have to trust us, we're the professionals. Science info is presented as if there is only one way of looking at it. I realised that a global flood is totally plausable and likely actually, that there is a LOT of evidence supporting it. |

And no, by attack I don't mean a debate, I mean verbal assaults.
I realize the indoctrination of evolutionary thought has permeated all aspects of society, but on a Christian board, I thought why bother offering up my honest opinion, only to be slashed for it.
I can do that for the lost out in the world, where it really matters, not some place where people come to get their smug jollies, by attacking people who disagree with them, no thanks. |

What about peer review?

It is like the crimson tide itself And, perhaps most reprehensibly, a long series of communications discussing how best to squeeze dissenting scientists out of the peer review process. How, in other words, to create a scientific climate in which anyone who disagrees with AGW can be written off as a crank, whose views do not have a scrap of authority.

Well, peer review is still a matter of absolute unfailing reliability when you already know you are right.

I would agree. I really don't even lurk on this forum at all and post even less. I just got sick of the lack of self control of the evolutionists. I thought this sub forum was for creationists but in my years here that never has been the case. So why waste my time.

Reps: 6,458,095,201,052 (power: 6,458,095,206) | | | I am a creationist, and I lean towards a young earth, but am not sure on the age of the earth either from a biblical or scientific perspective. I don't want to place too much importance on the matter. I am convinced, however, that Universal Common Descent is false.
I think it would be really good to see more creationist scientists both here and on the creation/evolution forum open to non-christians. Many creationists are poorly educated and the evolutionists (many of whom are well-educated scientists) wipe the floor with them. I would love to be able to come to these forums and actually learn more.
I have just finished my first year of university, so I am not quite well-educated myself yet, but hopefully I soon will be! |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
