Young Earth?
« on: January 25, 2006, 04:07:49 PM »
I have been reading a little about YECs and it seems to me that the basis of their belief is the bible. Am I wrong in saying this, or am I just looking in the wrong places? It seems that they are ignoring alot of science in their view.

This is off topic, but is there a reason that I can only see six posts in this forum? It seems more active than that. I do have it set to display all topics.

Also, sntjohnny, don't you hold the YEC POV? You never directly say it, but it seems like you do.

I'm not sure what you mean here.  Six threads?

"Also, sntjohnny, don't you hold the YEC POV? You never directly say it, but it seems like you do."

You are talking about the People's Front for Young Earth Creationism.  Those YECers are notorious for ignoring science.  Lousy English Kunigguts.   I HATE the PFfYEC.

Whatever I am, I do not ignore 'science.'

That is all that I see, too. But it seems like there should be more, given peoples post counts.

How old do you think the earth is?

Adolescent joke, probably not funny to an adult.
