I'm an atheist. I'm neither an evolutionist nor a creationist.
You have an agenda. It certainly isn't a skeptical one so I am not real open minded about you. As for being an atheist I have no clue but gut feeling is you are a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Anyway, since this topic isn't really drawing anything but snark comments and displays of YEC qualities, I'm not really interested in it anymore.
Run away little boy, run away.
I have some friends from college that have become college professors.
I know a few college professors(in science fields no less) they think the whole premise of this OP is laughable. But then again we are from the Midwest so what do we know.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
