A place for some comments from non-fundimentalist creationists

The debate at is usually polarized to being between the Young Earth Creationists / Young Age Creationists (YEC/YAC) and those who think the YEC/YAC position is badly in error (generally referred to as the "evolutionists").I was inspired to start this topic, when I read degreed's message at:
http://EvC Forum: Interesting Questions for Christians -->EvC Forum: Interesting Questions for ChristiansThis made me wonder where degreed fell in the spectrum of creationism. Looking at some of his/her other posts, I found this one:

to which Schraf replyed to in:
( http://EvC Forum: Questions Creationists Never Answer-still waiting! -->EvC Forum: Questions Creationists Never Answer-still waiting! ).There Schraf asked degreed:

at:
http://EvC Forum: A Christian (and creationist)'s condemnation of "Creation Science" -->EvC Forum: A Christian (and creationist)'s condemnation of "Creation Science"At that topic, after some illumination by Brad, I added (in message 3) the question:

Is the extreme fundimentalist interpretation more harmful to Christianity and creationism, than just accepting old earth evolution as being God's process of creation?
