Question 1:
You work for a large oil company. You have to do the hiring for the research team who will study core samples to help locate oil. Your only directive here is to help the company save money and find oil as quickly as possible.
Do you:
a) Hire young earth flood geologists to study core samples.
b) Hire geologists who use an old earth and evolution model to study core samples.
Question 2:
You work for a drug company and a new virus has just started spreading in the general population. Time is of the essense, you need to find a cure quickly. This virus is different from other known viruses.
Do you:
a) assume evolution is true and plot the virus in a phylogenetic tree and then start testing cures based on what works on its closest living relatives.
b) assume God created everything independently and so you don't place it in a phylogenetic tree and instead...(I was having a hard time finishing this, I'm not sure what predictions creationism actually makes).
(NOTE: I assume that as a Christain you would be praying during both choices in both cases, so try not to let that be an easy out from answering the question)
