This is the topic I really wanted to discuss, and, in some ways, I wish I was starting here. That is why I’ve changed the title of this series for those who discover it by a search engine. There are abundant internet landings on the evidence of a young earth, virtually all sponsored by the…

Now, I want to look at the evidence of an old earth Vs a young—six-thousand-year-old—earth. I want to do this in a respectful way to the young earth proponents by using what they have identified as proof of a young earth. However, before I move forward, I must deal with the elephant in the room,…

It is a gorgeous day here in the Pacific Northwest. The temperatures are in the low 70s and the sky is this solid dome of light blue, without one blemish. I wanted to pause and to mention a few things rather quickly. One Hundred New Followers I got a notice today that I have four…

A recent Gallop Poll1 showed that 40% of Americans believe in creationism, which they defined as God having created the earth within the past 10,000 years. I regret that they stated the question like that to the those being polled because there are three minimally related issues; 1) God as the creator of the earth,…

The Fear of Becoming Extraneous I’ve written before that I believe the MO of most of our behaviors is the quest for value. This is the reason we have careers, why we stride to be good people, good parents, good husbands, or wives, just to name a few. Money is like the blue ribbon at…

(Because I’m under the influence of steroids today, I got a bit wordy and have broken this down to parts I and II. I will publish part II within the next few days) Preface I write candidly, and this article will be no different. I will admit that I’ve developed a paranoia about writing here…
