It was from him that I learned, if creationism can be proven, it destroys the concept of 'faith' upon which the religion is built.

I'm not aware of any apologists who take the position that there can or should be no logical evidences for God having created the universe, in order to preserve faith, and I doubt that Walter Martin made such a statement either, just as I doubt you can provide me with the source and proof of the remarkable principle you assert. Christian faith is about salvation and heaven and what Christ did on the cross and this cannot really be the source of scientific investigation. The idea that God being the source of creation "must be about faith" and therefore cannot have any basis in logic or evidence is another way of avoiding difficult problems with evolution.

This is why it isn't worth my time debating such as yourself. This isn't what I said. I said, if creationism can be PROVEN it destroys the REASON for FAITH.

The KINGDOM is NOT OF THIS WORLD!
