The truth is that the scientific evidence overwhelmingly supports creation

Ahh, yes.

I eagerly await scientific evidence for:

* People living to be hundreds of years old
* Talking bushes & serpents
* Woman being created from the rib of a man
* "Adam" & "Eve" being the first humans

And other such biblical phenomena

That is really not the issue. It comes down to whether or not one believes there really is a God who created everything. If yes, then how would that God have any trouble keeping people alive for hundreds of years or creating a woman from the rib of a man? If no, then of course it's all impossible. That's the issue.

As for whether or not the flood and creation are true, I think Pascal answers it wisely: "Shem, who saw Lamech, who saw Adam, saw also Jacob, who saw those who saw Moses; therefore the deluge and the creation are true. This is conclusive among certain people who understand it rightly."

For the first, I give you the President;
for the last, I give you Carville.

There is usually not enough levity in these threads.
