There is plenty of evidence for a young earth view of the earth, and I can direct you to the websites [https://answersingenesis.org/ answersingenesis.org], [http://www.icr.org/ icr.org], and [http://creation.com/ creation.com]. However, whether one accepts creation or evolution depends on their philosophical convictions and presuppositions rather than the amount of evidence that exists. | | :::::I have found that talking to many evolutionists is like talking to a brick wall.

| | + | ::::::I couldn’t care less about creationist websites; point me to reputable publications where the writer can present evidence for creationism. It’s that simple. I know creationists publish in mainstream science journals. But I do not know of any mainstream science journal that publishes creationism. Why? Lack of evidence, it’s that simple. Do I ‘think secular journals would let people who believe in a young earth publish papers that give evidence for a young earth’? Of course they would, as long as the researcher provided the evidence. Once again, it’s that simple.--[[User:GinnyS|GinnyS]] ([[User talk:GinnyS|talk]]) 15:47, 30 June 2017 (EDT) |
