Yah, I was right, but it's still not enough for you.

I'll just have to be satisfied w/ being right.

And evo reasons for opposing YEC are metaphysical as well, so where's the supposed advantage of your position?

You had some unique point that applied only to me, I presume?

Or did you just think you could pretend you did?

Snippy, eh? By the way, you forgot to thank me for supplying you with a solid reference for your bald assertion. You're welcome anyway.

Uh, no. It's the physical evidence. Besides, it's hardly just "evos" who reject YEC. It's not even principally "evos" who do so. Historically it was certainly not "evos" who initially who did so. The notion of a young earth (and of a global, geologically significant flood) was decisively falsified and abandoned by pre-Darwinian creationist scientists who were biblical Christians almost to a man. This historical fact alone refutes the claim that there was an evolutionary, "metaphysical" bias involved.

Huh???
