I have been a YEC for many years, probably starting around 1952. I suppose it is just part of literal interpretation of the Bible, in my opinion.

I have a minor in chemistry and worked in the chemical industry, quality control lab, for 9 1/2 years, in route to a BD in 1976.

I always use the same screen name, which is most commonly seen in reloading forums.

Theologically, I am probably best described as a follower of Arminius, instead of being the more common Calvinist.

Welcome Paul B)

It's good to have you join in here, and I look forward to hearing more from you.

I, myself, cannot be described in the labeling of Calvin or Arminius. I find myself more of a literal believer in the vein of your namesake, in that I don't fall in line of Apollos or Paul, but of Jesus. (just an inside New Testament joke there... No offense meant).

You received your BD while I was a sophomore in high school! Yikes :o


God Bless Brother

Hi Paul, and welcome to the forums.

Sounds like you've got a solid chemistry background. You should have some interesting discussions with a few people here :lol:

I'm not familiar with the terms Arminius or Calvinist. What are they?

Regards,

Arch.
