I'm an old earth creationist myself.
That's what Young Earth Creationism (YEC) is.dmp was/is a 4004BC guy - and drives a Mazda, so there you have it.
Per Bishop Usher, the Earth was formed on October 29th, 4004BC, at 9AM.WHat exactly is the philosophy, or theory?
You'll have to ask Greg.What happened to dmp? I don't remember him being particularly upsetting or anything. Certainly nothing compared to RWA.
He's back (unbanned) now. Although he is not here much.What happened to dmp? I don't remember him being particularly upsetting or anything. Certainly nothing compared to RWA.
Here is the website of one of the most respected Astro physicists in the World, Dr. Hugh Ross. His website is called "Reasons To Believe". I've personally heard him speak at two conferences in the last few years.I was wondering if anyone here is a Young Earth Creationist? And, if you are, would anyone here feel comfortable asking a few questions?
I don't think you read their statement of belief on the website. They are very scriptural/biblical in their stance.So he does not believe in the bible? The bible believes the earth is much much younger than scientists have proven. The bible said indirectly, the univerese revolves around the earth. I guess you can still be christian though, without agreeing with every aspect of the bible. I believe in god, though the bible is tricky for me, and I tend to lean on science more than scripture.
1. The Bible states that God created the earth in six periods of time. The Hebrew word (yom) used for those periods of time could be translated either "day" or "age," depending on context. So it's not true to say that the Bible says the earth was created in six days; it says it was created in six yom, which, if we look at the scientific data, is best translated as ages.So he does not believe in the bible?

Can you link me to any of his research?Here is the website of one of the most respected Astro physicists in the World, Dr. Hugh Ross. His website is called "Reasons To Believe". I've personally heard him speak at two conferences in the last few years.
I am, an Old World Christian, and having that stand doesn't make me too popular with the mainstream evangelicals, but I really see a "head in the sand" philosophy with the other side. I still love my brothers and sisters in Christ, but must keep my lips tight in this area of discussion at times. Sometimes I don't.
He's (Dr. Hugh Ross) a strong Christian, yet believes that the earth is very old as revealed by scientific data, and scriptural evidences too.
Please check out Dr. Ross's fantastic website.

I would believe that the website of Dr. Ross would suffice to guide you in that direction of investigation.Can you link me to any of his research?
I've found a lot of apologetics material, but no research. I've tried google, wikipedia, MSN search, even my school's databases, which are extensive, but I can't find any research of his.I would believe that the website of Dr. Ross would suffice to guide you in that direction of investigation.
Also, you could contact him or employees at the site for answers to your above-question.

Anybody can twist and turn information towards their POV by ignoring certain aspects, cheerypicking others...He has liberally quoted many strong secular scientists in supporting his views though.........He doesn't question their research findings, but actually uses there findings to support Intelligent design as well as an Old World model.
Totally agree with you about this possibility with people presenting their side or "take", but after reading Dr. Ross's books, and having heard him speak at two conferences and heard him take piercing, hard questions from the audiences, I haven't come to your conclusion.Anybody can twist and turn information towards their POV by ignoring certain aspects, cheerypicking others...
