for one the grand canyon is proof of a young earth. that could not have happened over millions of years, if it had there would be a delta, there is not one
the argumenmts of evolution can be explained away just as easy as creationism, they both require faith to believe in. one excepts God the other rejects him
i appoligize that was uncalled for. but in all fairness evolution dosen't fit into genesis.
nor does it take into acount that there are dinasors mentioned in the bible way before the first fossils of them were ever even thought of because they still walked the earth
have you ever seen the trees that are fossilized through several layers of strata...if it is millions of years per layer how does that happen?

The Fred Flintstone Hoax
By Dawn Huxley
Posted on: 4/20/2002
What once looked like Fred taking Dino out for "walkies" turns out to be a nothing.
Henry Morris’ son, John Morris, once wrote a book about the infamous human and dinosaur footprints running parallel to one another in the Paluxy riverbed in Glen Rose, Texas. That book was called Tracking Those Incredible Dinosaurs and the People Who Knew Them! (Creation Life Publishers, 1980).
Upon closer investigation, scientists discovered that the smaller footprints running beside the larger dinosaur tracks were also made by dinosaurs, albeit smaller ones. They were three-toed reptile tracks, eroded just enough to coarsely resemble “human” footprints. Besides, those smaller footprints were three feet long, revealing an animal who stood over twenty feet tall, but the ICR retorted that they were Nephilim footprints (the “giants” in the days of Noah, Genesis chapter six).
In addition, many well-defined, fossilized human footprints were sold around that site, but scientists quickly saw that those were fakes. During the 1930s, when the dinosaur tracks were first discovered, a bunch of Glen Rose residents sculpted fake footprints and sold them to tourists.
Six years after publication, John Morris acknowledged this dilemma in the ICR’s January 1986 Impact newsletter called “The Paluxy Mystery.” This is significant because the Institute for Creation Research almost never admits to errors.
Yet on February 25, 1996, Charlton Heston hosted a pseudo-documentary called Mysterious Origins of Man that resurrected the Fred Flintstone hoax all over again!
How do you know it was 6000yrs agothe way i read it God created the earth in 6 days about 6000 years ago, about 4000 years ago there was a world wide flood, about 2000 years ago God walked the earth as man. the flood explains alot of things that an old earth and slow erosion does not
Further, you have not yet proven that the creation account is history.
As I noted above, the Genesis creation account is vastly different from typical Hebrew historical narrative (e.g. Kings and Chronicles) in terms of structure and syntax. Hence whilst it uses the waw-conjuction which is characteristic of historical narrative the differences between historical narrative and the creation account is significant. Think about the fairy tales we were told when we were children. Whilst they begin "Once upon a time" and end "and they all lived happily ever after" the actual structure is historical prose, but no one is going to say that they are history, or historical or indeed factual. Likewise, whilst the structure of the creation account is historical prose a far more fairer look at the account tells you it is not history, owing to the literary devices used.
No you didn't. You changed your world view to fall in line with the concordist interpretation of scripture that your minor branch of Christianity clings to.
And it still doesn't alter the fact that all the science says that there was no such thing as a worldwide flood and that the earth is 4.5 billion years old. That you continuously close your eyes to the truth is sad.
You don't need faith to accept facts. You do need an awful lot of gullibility to accept the lies of creationists.
