So one can only “call themselves” Christian if they have confidence in the theory of evolution?

I do not fail to take God at his word. God said that a day to him is as a thousand years and a thousand years a day. Days without a Sun are not necessarily a 24 hour period.

Those who are Geocentric Christians take God at his word when the Bible says “He set the foundations of the Earth so that it would not be moved”.

According to them I suppose you fail to take God at his word.

Piety is not measured on a sliding scale with how out of whack your cosmology is from reality.

Geocentric Christians?

Why do evos have to make up so many different varieties of Christians? It wouldn't happen to be because that is the only way to make Christians and creationists look like kooks so that the only alternative for an explanation of how we got here is the ToE and people have no choice but to accept it?

Are evos so desperate to to get people to believe the TOE that they will resort to making people disbelieve creation by presenting it as whacked out fringe movement? Is the ToE so weak in what it has to support it that that is evos only option?

If the Bible means 1,000 years (or 1 million, or 1000 million or 1 billion) when it says “day” in Genesis, why does it say there was a morning and an evening? Example: “ God called the expanse ‘sky.’ And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.”—Genesis 1:8

And when you say you take God at His word, does that mean you believe that plants appeared on the Earth before there was a sun? At least (according to your measurement of a “day” to God) 1,000 years before there was a sun? Do you also believe that birds appeared before land animals? (Genesis 1:11-25) Unless I miss my guess, that cosmology would be waaaayyyy out of whack.

" God said that a day to him is as a thousand years and a thousand years a day."

Just take a statement out of context, and use it anywhere you wish.

Peter made that statement in explanation of the millenial kingdom, AKA "The Day of The Lord." - It had absolutely nothing to do with any other day or days mentioned anywhere else in the Bible.

If you don't know that, then you are completely Bible-illiterate. (its ok, all evos just rewrite any part of the Bible as fits their particular apostate theory.)
