Re: why the YEC postion is bankrupt.
My point is that this is the YEC's premise and if the debate is to have any pretense to fairness that premise must be accepted.
Why? I don't ask you to accept that the Theory of Evolution is correct, in fact I invite your challenge. All you have to do is provide evidence that convinces me that the Theory of Evolution is wrong. It's the same with your position. All anyone here or anywhere else does is show the evidence that proves that a world-wide flood did not happen, at least within the last several hundred thousand years.
If there will ever be any debate, then by definition both sides are subject to challenge.
It's really good to see you back. We really need posts such as yours. It's statements such as
In a debate you either agree to accept your opponent's premise or not.
that makes our job of showing the fundamental irrationality and bankruptcy of the Fundamentalist/Evangelical/YEC Christian position.
Thank you. Please keep posting.

Re: why the YEC postion is bankrupt.
Oh, we recognize and acknowledge that it is your position.
Now all YOU have to do is support your position.
Thanks, please keep posting.
