On the top of mountains, miles in the sky, we find sea fossils, fossils of creatures that no longer exist. It not only tells of vast lengths of time where the land was slowly pushed to the top but of change to life itself. When you date the layers using the natural decay of radioactive elements the answers paint a consistent story the world over. They use to date layers by the fossils in them and radioactive dating only confirms their conclusions. I could go through your claims step by step and counter your points but I would not hit upon the real reason you stick by them. You believe you do Glory to God by absolutely following the Bible. I understand your desire to be righteous and how the Bible forms the very base of what you believe is right and wrong.

Would you give a 5 year child the keys to your car, a credit card and a shopping list expecting the supplies to dinner would soon arrive? Of course not! God reveals truths to men only when mankind is ready for them. God is the most reasonable Being in the universe but men where not ready for the full story until they had experienced the fruits of reason over many centuries. They would have resisted much as you do today. Now you do a disservice to God by insisting on staying in childhood when the rest of the world has grown up. Your insistence on a certain story only makes others think belief in God is childish . I know you want to do right by God, but the world will not accept him if it means being blind to truths revealed about his universe and God knows this country needs God more than ever today!
