Or Answers in Genesis' Statement of Faith: "By definition, no apparent, perceived or claimed evidence in any field, including history and chronology, can be valid if it contradicts the Scriptural record". The Institute for Creation Research has a similar statement of faith. Creationists admit up front that their preconceptions, in the form of religious convictions, determine their conclusions.

Mind you, if this is how a person has been programmed to think, then it's perhaps understandable that they will assume everyone else thinks this way too.

How long do you think it will take for CTD to get to the point of this thread? Will it happen at all, I wonder?
