I came across this site and decided to join as a member.
I want to make one thing very clear; I am not here to troll or flame, although the very concept of YEC flies in the face of everything I believe.
Just to clarify, whilst not an athiest, I am not overly religious. I have my beliefs, and they are my own.
I believe in evolution, that the world is a good bit more than 6,000 years old, and I believe the World is a sphere.
I take little to no stock in religious texts, as the texts were written by man, and therefore were open to manipulation, and in my opinion are moot as a reference source of proof.
That said, I have a legitimate interest in the YEC views.
Why?
At the end of the day, people have a right to believe in what they want to believe, and who am I to deny anyone their belief system, regardless of my own views on the topic in question. I like to see why people DO believe what they believe.
I may occasionally ask questions and make observations from my own perspective. Please don't take these questions and observations as attacks, they are simply my way of trying to understand a view which is a tad alien to me.
So, that's me.
