I took it no such way, and I appreciate your concern about it.

Regarding the original point, I’m glad that you did not respond in the affirmative. In fact, I might conjecture that professed Christianity actually further detracts from the YEC position.

For the record, I’m agnostic on the young-earth theories, not finding it necessary to believe in a particularly short timeframe in order to believe the Bible is inerrant.

I do tend to dismiss the claims of extreme ages, but not for strictly religious reasons. My opinion is that a lot of the old-age “discoveries” happened after it was decided we needed a really old earth to make evolution work, so it makes it all a bit suspect.
