Now there are a lot of other places where I totally disagree with the teachings of the YEC gang, but the above list does note the biggest places.
I would invite anyone who is interested in this debate, to read where I disagree with YEC, and if they have a issue?...or a question?...to feel free to ask me where in the bible I base what i believe?
there are other topics that ,while not always held by the YEC gang, do tend to pop up in these conversations.
An example is the common idea that fallen angels had sex with earth girls to make 'giants"....
I believe that whole idea is in error, and that if you just stick to the context then you will not come up with that rather nutty idea.
Another idea is that most of the YEC gang believe that evolution is against the Bible.
I believe that evolution and Genesis offer the student a well-rounded understanding of earth's history, and that evolution and genesis are able to walk hand-in-hand.
Now one of the things I notice is that while Im always quoting the Bible to support what i believe, that on the other hand the YEC gang does NOT like to try to quote the Bible very much to support their views.
Many times on this forum I have asked the YEC gang the question, "What does the bible say was the very first things created "In the Beginning?""
The YEC gang does not like that question....LOL
About 4 years ago on this forum I tried over and over and over to get the forum's YEC gang here to answer that question....they would not!
They did not dare!
They knew that if he answered truthfully that it would totally undercut their whole argument against what i was teaching.
so the conversation went like this -
Alan - "What does it say as Gen 1:1 was the first things God created?"
YEC- "you know evolution is evil"
Alan - "But just read the verse to me, and tell me what the verse says was created first!"
YEC "Darwin was a evil man"
Alan - "So you will not read the bible and answer my question about what you see written?"
YEC - " Evolution is a lie"
Alan - "In *** 38 it tells what the earth was in Darkness, what does it say there?"
YEC - "you know evolution is evil"
It always goes like that...
It always ends up with me quoting the Bible and asking Bible questions,
and the YEC refusing to look at what the Bible says, and just tossing back at me junk that has nothing to do with anything Im asking about.
YEC cant quote the Bible to support their views.
YEC cant use the bible to answer my questions.
All the YEC gang can do is quote the YEC websites and books, and they only are able to quote the books by Henry Morris.
So all of the house of cards we call Young earth creationism is built on the works of Henry Morris......not on the bible.....YEC is based all on the works of man.
Morris based his ideas on what he wanted the bible to have said....not what it actually says.
That is what the YEC gang that visit this forum cant answer any of my questions about the bible, because they find that all they gotis the works of Morris, not any Bible stuff.
But my views are all based on what the text of the Bible actually says.
