Young earth creationism answers nothing. That is why YEC isn't used in any industry that relies on geology.
Not one.

It is not necessary (of course not), except there is a need to do that.
What is the need? A much better understanding which can answer more questions.
How about 100,000 years? It would still be a young, in fact, a very young earth.
Should it?Young earth creationism answers nothing.
Should it?
Does music? macrame? turtle racing? Chess? barbering?
So what?Since there is no physical aspect of the earth that supports (in fact much of what we see with our own eyes is the direct opposite of YEC) there is no "understanding" that is gained from it.
I am not a biologist. So basically I don't know.
However, I can give a logic answer:
The bacteria changed its body chemistry so that the antibiotics will not react to the bacteria any more.
You may say: AHA, that is evolution.
I would say: If that is evolution, then the earth itself is evolving. The sun is also evolving. Accept that?
(I have made this argument many times. Hope I haven't done that to you before. But if I did, what is your response then? )
That is a good and honest response and I appreciate it.I am not a biologist. So basically I don't know.
So what?
I've been saying that for years ... yet I believe the earth was created 6000 years ago.
And if there is supposed to be evidence that can back YEC's beliefs (or mine), why did God say this?
Hebrews 11:3a Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God,
Not before, this is the first time as far as I recall.
My answer though is the term evolution can mean a number of things. Multiple meanings is part of the nature of the English language.
In this case evolution refers to biological evolution so the reference to the earth and sun have no relevancy.
That is a good and honest response and I appreciate it.

There are no conceptions of YEC that are 100,000 years. The reason YEC exists is due to a literal reading of the Bible and there is no reason to make 100,000 years.
If it is 100,000 years then there is no reason to believe in a 4.5billion year old earth.
One or the other. No reason for a "middle ground" in ages.
Unless the goal is merely to be contrarian for no use or utility.

If you want to use that sort of language, the Sun is evolving into a white dwarf. Playing with words doesn't really prove anything.
No playing at all. Evolutionist defined evolution as "change". I simply applied that.
Do you want to modify the definition? I will certainly not playing words with you. I don't have time to play.
As you can see from my another post, define it as "biological change" is not any better. It has to be more specific. (the trick is: the more specific, the higher chance it will fail, or be useless).
OK the scientific definition of biological evolution is change in allie frequencies in a population over time aka change in the genetic makeup of a population over time.What is biological evolution? This is science, not a dictionary. There can only be ONE unambiguous definition for one term.
I am getting old. Is this a biological evolution? Why not?

Perhaps, but it is an accurate one. Perhaps you can point out a few major drilling operations using YEC geology to search for oil and gas?This is a funny statement.
This is a funny statement.

How did we get our moon?I guess that it is easier to live life when one needn't pit God against the Evidence God plainly gave to EVERYONE.
How did we get our moon?
(We'll see what's "plainly given to EVERYONE," won't we?)
How did we get our moon, Mike?
