There have been threads on that very topic, about men who've questioned that and allowed for the role of God in creation, or at least declined to answer where they stand on the God creating the universe and life, and there have been calls for their heads.
And you don't consider that fanaticism?
Apparently, neither is algore's hot air cult.
Bible Manipulation 101 (How to make hte bible conform to an a priori hypothesis in 10 easy steps):
Take the word Yom: Insist that it can only mean a literal 24 hour cycle AFTER God Creates the Sun and Moon- Insist that, despite hte fact that it’s used qualifiers like ‘day and night’, it must mean ‘long ages BEFORE God created the sun and moon
Take the Phrase “and hte earth brought forth grass...” and insist this is proof for evolution (Not sure if the OEC’er thinks the earth did the creating, or if life just sprung forth ‘in hte ground over long ages of evolution)
But Woops- there’s a problem- life needs sunlight IF it’s goign to survive for ‘long ages’-
Concede this problem, and simpyl move the ‘long ages’ back another literal day in the creation week and insist that ‘Yom’ must mean ‘long ages’ BEFORE the creation of the plants and trees and Herbs bearign fruit and seeds in maturity on the literal 24 hour creation day spoken of i nthe bible.
When it is mentioned that life began on a literal 24 hour cycle, and couldn’t have survived without hte sun, and that God created the actual sun and moon AFTER the DAY that He created living structures like grasses and trees and herbs, just shrug and say ‘We don’t have all the answers yet, but ‘Yom’ still can mean ‘long ages’, and declare evolution as a fact despite a lack of both scientific and biblical support- and ignore this fact, and still insist on claiming that the bible supports evolution.
Dontchaknow? If a Creationist or ID scientist is denied tenure, then everythign they have ever said, or ever wil lsay must therefore be a lie? Silly you- Someone who isn’t awarded tenure can NEVEr EVER under any circumstances present truth apparently- (although those makign that silly claim show hte weakness of hteir position- but are just too blind to see it apparently- Attack the messenger- attack their credentials, and insist that unless they are mainstream- that htey couldn’t possibly have anythign of scientific value ot present- Gee- what a powerful coutner-argument put forth by some on htis thread- but it’s typical anti-Christian/creation tactics- throwing spitwads because they’re out of ammo)
