EvC Forum: Age Correlations and an Old Earth:
rickrose, irrespective of the length in real time of a "day" in genesis 1, the problem remains that the order fo creation of the specified living organisms is inconsistent with the scientific evidence. How do you explain such anomolies?

EvC Forum: Age Correlations and an Old EarthSo I can attempt to respond, please briefly fill me in on the anomolies of the Gen order of creation. Also would you do me the favor of explaining what exactly the meaning of the title of this site means above everyone's contribution. The Gap Theory (I got the middle ye/oe) gen 1:3/1:1. Please tolerate my ingorance. This is my first experience on a chat room, if this is a chat room. Also I have never engaged others in any lengthy discussion on c vrs e who took the time to explain what they believe. Busy world. thanks, rickrose
There are several different forms of creationism, the most familiar of which is the literalist young earth form (YEC), but others are Old earth (OEC), and GAP (gaps between creation days or similar constructs), and finally there are other religions -- hindu fundamentalist creationism for instance (scientific dates too young for the real universe)
a good overview can be found at wikipedia.com:
