If one believes in a literal six day creation, that person is unscientific. That viewpoint is based on faith only and is opposed by science. That doesn’t mean that you are a simpleton. It means that you decided to take on faith that the story of creation, as written in Genesis, is literally true and not an allegory.Can someone please show me the “science” that proves evolution? It seems that anyone who actually believes the six day creation story is labeled as unsceintific or treated as a simpleton.
And by the way, regarding being treated as a simpleton, I have had numerous times where I have been called an atheist because I am a geologist. So it goes both ways.
He wasn’t a scientist and he didn’t have the evidence we have that the earth is old or that life has evolved.I suggest you read St. Basil’s “Hexamiron”,a series of nine homilies on just this subject. BTW, he is one of only 33 “Doctors of the Church”.
I’m sorry, but the young earth crowd has no scientific evidence.The scientific “facts” put forward by the young earth crowd are no less “proven” facts than those proposed by the evolutionist.
Are you also wary of any scientist that tells you that time is not constant? How about a scientist that studies composition, structure and properties of matter? Or is it just geologists that you are wary of?I am not a scientist; but, I am wary of anyone who tells me they can “know as fact” that a rock is 600 milion years old, or that it takes 400 million years to do what I can watch being done in California on the news in the space of a few minutes…
