“Perhaps you could explain why. How can a creationist who believes God over what scientists claim is scientific evidence, be showing *little faith* in doing so?”
Why, if a creationist believes in what God says in the Bible, then they are showing faith.
If, however, he sets up experiments, then fudges the data and publishes papers in crackpot journals that “prove” that carbon dating yields dates that only appear old....then never submits them for peer review to actual experts in the field - and calls them liars and heretics when they comment on it anyway.
Would THAT guy (a “creation science” guy) be showing faith?
That guy is what “creation science” is all about. They all lie. They do it because they lack faith.
If they had faith, they’d not try to “prove” science was “wrong” by making up their own science.
You sound as if you actually believe that. To the point that anyone that doesn't, is a creationist.
OK. I think I see what you’re coming from.
So if someone simply chooses to believe what Scripture says without trying to use science to prove it, then that is not weak faith?
FWIW, I think what these creation scientists are doing is not trying to prove to themselves that Scripture is right using science, but they are trying to convince others that Scripture is right using science.
