My question is this: how can I talk to her and show her, not that she is wrong, but, to be more accepting of different viewpoints.
when it comes to the bible there is no accepting of different viewpoints. if it disagrees with the Bible then it is wrong.
you should discard your alternatives and follow the Bible.

Why?
simple, if God lied once then He would not be God and there would be no hope nor salvation for mankind. and your charade of being a devout christian would be useless. you may fool men but you do not fool God.
Why?
because it is the only book that makes sense and makes sense of everything.
evolutionists are like people who reject their heritage then run around trying to figure out who they are and when they can't find it, they invent something so they get some sort of answer, even though it is incorrect.
Edited by archaeologist, : No reason given.

But your position means that the god you worship is in fact a liar and a cheat
where? specifics not generalized declarations. evidence please.
Since when we look at what the Bible says we find that it does not align with what God did
no here you are insinuating and inserting secular science into what God did and that cannot be done. you need to realize that a field of study, that was not present at the time of origin, designed to look for natural answers, cannot determine what took place at creation nor declare what God did or didn't do.
Since we most certainly did not create the world we live on, we can say that part really is what God did. You God though either lied in the bible or in the Earth.
neither. it is the secularists and evolutionists who are lying. your inability to realize or see that a terrestrial field is incapable of lying or being dishonesty makes your faith in it very child-like and in error. then to claim that God lied is just pure ignorance.
My Christian life is what I believe we are called to do, to treat others as we would like to be treated. Whether or not I will be saved is of course an unknown. Salvation is by the Grace of God.
follow john 3:16 then you will know you are saved and that it does not depend on your works. but i am guessing you are roman catholic by the way you write and are very mislead about salvation.
yes it is by the grace of God but we also have to make a choice and that choice is found in that passage. we also do not call God a liar by allowing secular science to blind us and lead us to untruths about what He said.
