The 1st 2 links I provided you make the case for creation quite well. I am not going to cut and paste them all to get you to read them.

aq48-”The thing with creationism, is that if you accept it you have to deny not just evolution, but geology, astronomy, genetics, biology, and other branches of science.”
Sorry but I don’t have to deny anything factual w/ those branches of science. The only thing I’m truly denying is called uniformitarianism. IOW if a lake accumulates 1 inch of sediment/year then for each and every 100 ft of sediment on the lake bottom = 120 years.

This is a logical fallacy the same as saying the movement of the continents are uniform [as with plate tectonics]. Geology 1st accepted this incorrectly and now some micro-biologists claim the same for ‘beneficial’ mutations - the only problem being [see below from my 1st link - item 3 esp. - all items 1-5 are applicable here].

1.DNA in “ancient” fossils. DNA extracted from bacteria that are supposed to be 425 million years old brings into question that age, because DNA could not last more than thousands of years.

from my links page...
Dinosaur Shocker - 68 million year old T Rex w/ red blood cells

2.Lazarus bacteria—bacteria revived from salt inclusions supposedly 250 million years old, suggest the salt is not millions of years old. See also Salty saga. [BM - see also polystrate fossils.]

3.The decay in the human genome due to multiple slightly deleterious mutations each generation is consistent with an origin several thousand years ago. Sanford, J., Genetic entropy and the mystery of the genome, Ivan Press, 2005; see review of the book and the interview with the author in Creation 30(4):45–47,September 2008. This has been confirmed by realistic modelling of population genetics, which shows that genomes are young, in the order of thousands of years. See Sanford, J., Baumgardner, J., Brewer, W., Gibson, P. and Remine, W., Mendel’s Accountant: A biologically realistic forward-time population genetics program, SCPE 8(2):147–165, 2007.

[Aquila48, you are aware aren’t you that the vast majority of all lifeforms that ever existed on earth are now extinct? This may have been through predation and/or environment but also may speak of robustness/decay for each specific genome.]

4.The data for “mitochondrial Eve” are consistent with a common origin of all humans several thousand years ago.

5.Very limited variation in the DNA sequence on the human Y-chromosome around the world is consistent with a recent origin of mankind, thousands not millions of years.

[BM - #5 is also why racism [origins w/ Darwin and evolution] is no longer scientifcally valid as all mankind’s DNA are over 99.9% similar.]

Regarding astronomy the ‘experts’ claiming long ages again ignore Einstein’s time dilation due to weak vs strong forces of gravity. I suspect much more light will be shed on this when science knows as much about the heavens as they now know about 3 billion coded sequences in DNA.

I wish you well too and if you remain unconvinced that’s fine as I’m certain history will correct for the meddling government money has done to the integrity of true science.

One of the 1st things I learned on FreeRepublic is you have to be able to follow the money trail to see how it corrupts everything - most often proportionally.

I found humorous the complaint about the “presuppositions” involved in accepting the account of the global flood.

As if there are no presuppositions in the uniformitarian view.
