Certainly not any more than Im impressed with the priests of the Religion of Scientism.
Ive read solid scientists assert the accuracy of a global flood etc. etc.
Creation "scientists?"
Face it, the idea of a global flood about 4,350 years ago is a tribal myth. The only folks who support that idea are the ones who already buy into the rest of the associated mythology. Independent scientists, say in India or China, do not come up with anything close to a global flood at that time period. They have no a priori reason to do so.
Here is some evidence you might consider: There is a cave in southern Alaska, called On Your Knees Cave. It is dated to 10,300 years of age. A partial human skeleton yielded mitochondrial DNA which was matched to living descendants on the west coasts of North and South America. There was no flood, depopulation, and replacement with people from the middle east (as documented by the continuity of mtDNA).
This matches a mountain of other evidence from archaeology in the western US. If there was a flood 4,350 years ago it would be readily visible in the soils, and archaeologists would find that evidence easily. Its not there. Rather, what we see is overall continuity of human cultures, fauna and flora, and stratigraphy.
I believe The Bible is true—every word.
I don’t believe it’s a geology text, per se.
I believe I’ll understand all the seeming mysteries in due course.
I’m still waiting for your answers to my questions.
