You don’t need a ‘YOUNG EARTH’ to prove creationism.
When God first pronounced the ‘First Day’ there the Earth wasn’t even spinning around the Sun! That didn’t happen until day two or three (can’t remember right now).
Since the earth was not spinning around on Day 1 .... it is clearly evident that God’s Day 1 WAS NOT A INCREMENT OF TIME, but a first phase of the creation process!
All you people who demand that the earth is only 6,000 years old give make Creationism look like a joke!
Get over it! The Bible is not a text Book on how God created the earth ... but only the briefest of summaries!
I had a Paleontology professor in college who was a devout Christian. He said the Bible said Who and Geology said how. Best explanation I have seen.
