Aren't we just as guilty when we insist that the "scientific-method"-based language of the creation be changed so as to allow "wiggle room" for 6,000 years, the Flood, and dinosaurs in the Garden of Eden? If there is a "censorship on the left" chapter, I would be interested to hear about "censorship on the right".

Could you elaborate a bit? I am a young-earth creationist - and am interested in a reasoned dialogue on the subject (as opposed to the constant ad hominem diatribe that often passes as "debate").

LiteKeeper, I'm not big on debating this subject in it's particulars.

Suffice to say, I'm a Christian but I don't buy the creationist narrative over the unfolding picture of what happened that the scientific method has given us. I don't see God and science as incompatible, nor do I see God as being threatened by scientific inquiry.

Science for the glory of God? Why not? Conservatism as a rational outgrowth of scientific views, tempered by loving faith? Sure, I like it.

Anyway, the creation is not that big a part of my personal faith when compared to the life and death of Jesus.
