Reps: 15,862 (power: 0) | | | YECists: If Creationism was absolutely disproven, what would you do?
I mean if the Biblical account of Creation was absolutely, positively, totally disproven. No ands, buts, or ifs.
I'm asking an honest question and so I am looking for honest answers. I myself am an undecided, so I do not have hidden motives.
