The Bible does not damage faith, only false interpretations do.
Since you're willing to accept the age of the earth and want to avoid all the incest, why not accept the scientific fact of evolution? It really doesn't take all that many mental gymnastics from where you are currently.
Creation has never been observed. So that doesn't really solve your problem.
I believe God revealed to Adam about the creation. And that the days in Genesis 1 are not the days God created, but the days God revealed to man about the creation.
That's it AV1611VET keep digging that hole, you know it makes sense.A lot more observed it than you think -- like a few quadrillion angels?

Like Intelligent Design?But we've seen lesser versions of creation, micro-creation if you will, in how humans build cars or genetically engineer organisms. Surely if you scale up the process it could account for large scale creation events?

What does this have to do with anything?What did your god want with "a few quadrillion angels"? was he lonely?
1. I believe in what the Bible teaches - creationism.
2. I believe in polygenism.
I reject ToE on the basis of my Biblical interpretation, but also because i do not believe monogenism is scientific. I also already listed the holes in the evolution theory. Macroevolution has never been observed anyway, so for me to convert to an evolutionist is the same chance i start to believe in the tooth fairy...
As an honest man, I have to stress that you wrote that about Ice Ages, not about evolution. Yet, the principle stays. We don't need to observe evolution directly. There are physical remains left, and these can be tested. Remains like the georgrphical distribution of living species, the sequence in the fossil record, the nested hierarchy in animal features, the genetic similarity of key genes, etc.It doesn't need to be directly observed, there are physical remains left, and these can be tested.
Tell that to Picasso: http://www.christianforums.com/t7543350-4/#post56969436Creation has never been observed.
Not exactly -- here's What makes the impossible possible:Sadly creationists have been duped into believing the impossible is possible providing you believe it strongly enough.

I want to confront you with your own words:

You'll have to deal with all of these (and many more) before doing the ToE away.
But above all, your attitude of "it hasn't been observed directly, so it isn't true", can't be held any longer.
Fijian, none of my business really; but just out of curiosity, are you among the elect or the reprobate?This of course comes from the guy who says the Bible is just for white people
