Creeds can take a hike.And they mean a lot to those that do hold them...so why oh why didn't the very first Christian creeds state anything about young-earth 6-day Creationism?
Dispensationalism (or your particular flavour) can take a hikeCreeds can take a hike.
All they are is the Reader's Digest condensed version of one's particular flavor.
Sola Scriptura!
What was that all about? Supralapsarianism (sp. ?), can take a hike too then.Dispensationalism (or your particular flavour) can take a hike
Who cares? Creeds are for those who are too lazy to read.Sola Scriptura and Creeds are not and have never been mutually exclusive
The Rapture can take a hike tooWhat was that all about? Supralapsarianism (sp. ?), can take a hike too then.
Clearly you care enough to pass comment on it, or are you annoyed that we weren't talking about you?Who cares? Creeds are for those who are too lazy to read.

Because everyone believed it, everyone believed the earth was young, gap theorists and day age theorists have only come about in recent history, they are not historical throughout the Church.And they mean a lot to those that do hold them...so why oh why didn't the very first Christian creeds state anything about young-earth 6-day Creationism?
..and yet they said nothing about young-earth 6-day Creationism, clearly it was never an essential belief, unlike the authority of scripture
Why would anyone who didn't have to contend with what they thought was good science entertain anything but exactly what the Bible says?
Because the Bible is horribly flawed in many people's opinion.

In fact, it's not and I know this because it is not opinion it is proven through science.
In fact, it's not and I know this because it is not opinion it is proven through science. However, your statement is a fallacious appeal to popularity.
I never thought I would hear myself use this term, but don't they call your rebuttal an argumentum ad populum, or something like that?My statement is not fallacy. The fact I share that opinion has little to do with the fact that more people on this planet think the Bible is fantasy than those who don't. Now that's a fact.
Perhaps he has standards.It's amusing that you are happy to indulge scientific evidence when it suits you, but not when it doesn't.
And speaking of that, what do you do with scientific evidence that doesn't suit you?
Better yet, what does any scientist do with scientific evidence that doesn't suit them?

But that's the thing, he's not interpreting the Bible in a vacuum. He's interpreting the Bible in the light of modernist scientific rationalism which tells him that any truth claim must be verified in a empirical scientific manner for it to be valid. Creationists bemoan the scientific method as being atheistic but they seem to not realise that it's this same rationalist movement that gave rise to modern Creationism.
And what of those scientists who don't accept it? ever heard of peer review?Better yet, what does any scientist do with scientific evidence that doesn't suit them?
I accept it. The scientific method demands scientists do the same.
At this stage, an evolutionary process is the best explanation we have. It may change in the future.
Bull turds.What we have is foolish people who think they are smarter than God so come with a stupid theory called evolution. Evolution is The worst piece of bovine excrement ever!
