I have not conversed with any evo who has not already seen and rejected the above. If the evidence does not support the particular camp to which we belong, we will reject that evidence or mold it until if fits nicely into our pre-conceived notions of life and how it came to be.
​
Not quite. If all the evidence does not support a conclusion, I reject that conclusion. The "salt in the oceans" argument, for example, might at first sniff seem to support a young-ocean scenario. But a couple of dozen other lines of evidence - magnetic striping, dating of seafloor cores, rates of opening of ocean basins, etc. - contradict that "evidence." Anbd the original assertion of "salt in the oceans" leaves out the known consumption of sodium by reactions with "new" rock at spreading centers. And it is further flawed by ignoring metals like iron and aluminum - their concentrations in seawater "prove" that the Earth is less than about 150 years old!

Re: Positive Evidence
Evidence is bountiful;

But you aren't going to point any of it out, eh?

Re: Summary to date ... what there is ...
Since 45 percent of all Americans, according to polling data are Creationists, this fact means tens of millions of persons see reality as I just described; therefore, the main scientific evidence for Creationism is observational reality.
​
And since 29% of all Americans, according to polling data, think that the sun revolves around the earth..........
