An Addendum

In my previous post I was quite reflective on taking the time to notice things and learn about the world around us – after the frightful events in Belgium earlier today, this takes on greater significance.

The Title says it All

https://theologyarchaeology.wordpress.com/2016/03/12/yec-is-not-absurd/ So Young Earth Creationism is apparently not absurd. Of course not. It just flies in the face of everything we know about how planets form (including the timescale), and about how life evolves. This once again links in with what I said in my previous post – that a literal interpretation of the Bible […]
