Hi all,
I am new to this forum.
I am a Christian of 13 years and have always been interested in
apologetics but have often shyed away from getting into the
creation/evolution debate.
However, recently, on account of a number of discussions with
people in my work place, I have been forced to jump into the fray. I
am glad that I have though as I am finding the subject very
interesting indeed and have realized that creation science evangelism
and apologetics can be a very powerful witnessing tool for the
Christian. I am in the process of reading a number of books on the
subject, but I am still very new to this whole area.
I have some questions that have been asked of me by my skeptical
friends that I would appreciate some feedback on. Here is one for
now:
We were talking about the flood. My friend stated that there was no
evidence for this and that it was just myth. I countered from a
recent Creation magazine which said seashell type
fossils have been found on some of the highest mountains in our world
(suggesting that they were once underwater). He countered back with
saying that he does not doubt that the mountains were once under the
water but this was from a time well 'before' the flood. Looking at
the Bible the first few verses of Genesis would also seem to back
this up. Any suggestions in going about discussing this
appreciated. Thanks.
