I support teaching Biblical young-earth Creationism only if the class points out that YEC supports an earth-centered universe, a 4-cornered flat earth, and a 6000ish year old planet, all of which have been definitively, scientifically disproven.
==YEC supports an earth-centered universe, a 4-cornered flat earth, and a 6000ish year old planet, all of which have been definitively, scientifically disproven.
Actually, current YEC cosmology supports a galactocentric universe (which Big Bang cosmologists, such as Stephen Hawkings admit is the most obvious interpretation of the data, but is excluded on “ideological” grounds). YEC does not hold to a flat earth. Current YEC cosmology holds that the earth is around 6000 years old, and that distant galaxies are billions of years old, and yet both owe their existence to the same creation event (i.e. gravitational time dilation as per Einstein’s theory of GR). You might want to bone-up on the subject before making such patently ignorant statements.
