In the end I think it is the Holy Spirit that changes a person's heart not a debate.

Thank God that the Holy Spirit is alive and well and working great work still.

I personally don't know anyone who has come to Christ because of Old or Young earth arguments. It has more likely been a lack of being Christ Like that has "Hurt" the Church.

John 13:35By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.
James 2:15-16If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,” and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the good of that?
(Pretty much all of First John.)

The age of the earth is not what wins souls for Christ it is the Fruits of the Spirit. Namely love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

Yes. Yes and amen.

Amen to that!

I know for myself it was the Christ like nature of my friends that led me to Christ and I hope that others can say the same about me.

Matthew 25:34-36

Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me,
