Absolutely true.

“Creationists” are not. They are fools who make people of faith look like idiots.

The Bible is not a scientific text - its a book about morality and salvation. And people of faith who argue to try and make it otherwise are hurting all of us.

"The Bible is not a scientific text - its a book about morality and salvation."

It's also a history book.
But nowhere does the Bible say the earth is 6,000 years old - that is a figure that man deduced.
We have little idea of the true flow of time in ages past, but we do know that time is not a constant, (we're not even sure if the speed of light is a constant).

As a creationist, whom you say is a fool, I simply believe the Bible over what the world says. This I believe because I've been loved by God through Christ Jesus. And if the Lord Jesus Christ, the Apostle Paul and many other key figures believed that Adam and Eve were the first man and first woman (my first ancestors) then I must look seriously at Genesis.

From there I find that God made the Sabbath day Holy on the Seventh Day because He rested from making His creation on the Seventh Day and establishing the seven day week which we use to this day.

As for the earth being 6000 years old, have you ever noticed the Jewish dating system in terms of years?

It really comes down to what you believe. Ether you believe that everything comes down to chance or that God has a sovereign purpose for everything and a Love worth living for.

Just a thought.

Creationists are not as foolish as sanctimonious Darwinists who believe in evolution like it was fact. If you cannot show a transitory fossil then you are believing it by faith or fraud.

Some believe in the Bible and fools believe in Darwin.

So, why do we need salvation?
