Re: How Does YEC Explain The Fossil Record?
Hi Jim, Most Young Earth Creationists hold to the "flood geology" view, suggesting that the geological strata are not reflective of when these creatures came into existence, but of when they died—i.e., in the biblical flood. They would suggest that the order in which things are found (which is not ...

How Does YEC Explain The Fossil Record?
If the earth is really young why don't we find humans or mammals in the same strata that we find dinosaurs. Or dinosaurs in the same lower strata as earlier life forms. There seems to be a clear progression of more and more complicated life.

Re: Video of Evolution Debate: Steve Gregg and Jon Perry
Seer, I think Gods Word tells us to seek truth, and be wise of craftiness. We do not want to attribute lies to God, and truth to be coming from the Serpent. In all our learning we are told to get understanding, I do not think Solomon was speaking only of bible knowledge but to seek wisdom in all ou...

Are you advocating that it's okay for Christians to live in willful ignorance? I'm saying it doesn't make much of a difference. If their beli...

Re: Video of Evolution Debate: Steve Gregg and Jon Perry
A belief that a God of one sort or another is behind creation does no harm to anyone; however, teaching kids that scientists are out to trick them, teaching kids to accept a supernatural explanation of things before examining the natural possibilities - these things DO harm us. They make us stop le...

Re: The Honest Atheist?
I do not see why unbelief or deception is incompatible with honesty. An atheist can be honest in his assertion of belief that there is no God based on whatever reasoning that led him to that point. Speaking of deception is it not the devil who blinds the minds of unbelievers? So it is not the man's...

Re: The Honest Atheist?
I am not sure that unbelief is a sin in anyone. Sin is basically self-service rather than genuine love and service to others. Doubts are the messengers of the Living One to the honest. They are the first knock at our door of things that are not yet, but have to be, understood. . . . Doubts must pr...

Re: The Honest Atheist?
I am not sure about honest atheists, because an atheist has absolute certainty that God does not exist. However, I do believe that there are honest agnostics. I think Bertrand Russell was one of them. I have read his debate with Father F.C. Copleston, and I saw him interviewed on television when he...

The Honest Atheist?
Is there such a thing as an "honest atheist?" Of does scripture suggest that every man has enough proof of God through the witness creation or moral conscience?
