Sadly, I must agree. I agreed with a friend's assertion a few weeks ago
that YEC would be dead in a generation. But since then several
circumstances have convinced me that I was delerious at the moment I offered
my agreement. I think the problem is that you cannot sell what people don't
want. Most Christians don't want the earth to be old, don't want evolution,
don't want science and don't want the modern problems they view science has
visited upon us. Given this, it is no wonder we are losing.
