Faith is not blind. If after observation if the chair is solid you sit in it having faith that it holds you up. By the same token we observe evidences of ID and either accept or reject relative to how extensively we observe and how we interpret those observations. Perhaps you were light on ID observation and heavy on Evo observation in your personal experience. Hey Buzsaw, Sorry, but it is physics, not faith that holds your proverbial chair up. And in my education and experience, I spent more energy and time defending YEC than I now care to admit. I spent countless hours memorizing ICR's arguments, and even Ron Wyatt's garbage (Sorry, but it really WAS) than many others I know. I am in no way trying to position myself to question your faith-I have only respect for that-but I find no credibility in the Young Earth Creationist's scientific methodology. They present no positive evidence, only philosophical rhetoric...and that in NO WAY constitutes science. Edited by AdminJar, : No reason given.

Aussie writes: Mind if I ask where in Australia you're from? Townsville, North Queensland. Take a look at it on Google Earth... yuck! It looks so much nicer from the ground, heh. Seriously, there are some beautiful sights, greenery, nice beaches, etc. But that overhead must have been taken during one of our worst dry spells. Townsville is part of "The Tropical North"... that photo looks more like the Middle East.
Aussie writes: ...singing "God save the queen" before class... Ha! I remember that, too. Wow, back before it was changed to Advance Australia Fair. I am so old.  This sparked my curiosity and I found Wiki's Advance Australia Fair entry. Apparently one of the songs it went up against in a vote for national anthem was Waltzing Matilda. Wish I'd been voting in that. I would have gone for Matilda, myself.

Hey Tony!
I have an Uncle that used to live in Townesville! My sister ADORES northern Queensland. Next time I visit it WILL include Townesville. I heard they changed the National Anthem, but I never learned the new one. Great knowing you! (And yes my chest still swells with pride on hearing "Waltzing Matilda"). I'm with you in that one!

Aussie writes: I heard they changed the National Anthem, but I never learned the new one. Yeah, I agree with Adam Hills; the lyrics are great but they need a new tune. Have you ever seen his version at the Melbourne Comedy Festival? The lyrics of Advance Australia Fair set to the tune of Jimmy Barnes' Working Class Man. Awesome! I'd vote for that if it were made an option. Well, providing Barnsy himself performed it. Hills' performance is ok, but he's no Barnsy.  In the middle of this I managed to find that video online, if you're interested... New Australian National Anthem.

Not to worry.
She claims that all the time, but we have a spidey view that sometimes makes us wonder.

I am very curious about your Christian community experience. From Sanford to TN? Are you comfortable telling me a little about it? I'd love to tell you about it, but I can't derail this thread going into it. Feel free to read all you want at Error 404 (Not Found)!!1. I think you can email us from just about any page of the web site, and most of the web site emails get forwarded to me to answer.

What civilization do we know of that existed 8k years ago? I believe Sumeria's considered the first civilization. It dates back 8,000 years. That's when farming started. Farming produced the first cities. There were wandering tribes and religious worship for thousands of years before that, though how many thousands is much discussed. Asians first came to America about 13,000 years ago (or more if you listen to some people), and they were tribal and religious. Obviously, they had to have been in Asia before that.
Well, a more obvious example of this particular form of child abuse is the case with Lamb and Lynx Gaede. Yes, but isn't hate the problem there, and not religion? Their situation is awful.
