I notice, Abishag, that you are very keen to tell us all to accept creationism -- apparently because that is the correct and godly thing to do.

What I'm wondering is whether you feel this also requires us to ignore or deny reality. If there was a worldwide Biblical flood, for example, then we should see evidence of that in the geological record, and none has been discovered. What is more, creationism does not account for the layering of fossils -- trilobites near the bottom, dinosaurs in between, humans near the top. Why is this, if all these creatures existed at the same time? Are you asking us to believe that scientists are simply lying to us?
