On several threads in another CF forum, I have asked several young earth creationists to identify which portions of the original Hebrew text they believe are not compatible with the big bang theory and to state why they think it is contrary to scripture. Thus far, none of them have done anything other than to make general statements that they think modern mainstream science is hopelessly at odds with the Genesis account of creation.
Since I am not so sure that is really the case, I would like to explore why YECs seem to feel so threatened by scientific findings and evidence. In order to keep the topic more manageable, lets start with the initial creation (we can get to evolution later if you wish), and in order to keep you from feeling as threatened, I am choosing to use this forum, since it is designed for Christians only.
The challenge is quite simple: Please identify which portions of the original Hebrew text you believe are not compatible with the big bang theory and to state why you think it is contrary to scripture. If you have questions about the big bang theory, please address those questions here.
Thank you.
