What have been responses to this, by YECs and by others?
As with my request for ID critiques, web-pages and ASA archives
would be especially useful -- or at least immediately useful. :<)
Personally, I'm impressed. Their humility inspired me to revise
two parts of my overviews, mainly my description of "harmonization",
which now reads:
"YECs begin with a firm commitment to young-earth theology based on
their interpretation of the Bible, and then adjust their science as
necessary, but this does not produce satisfactory science. Or a YEC
might recognize the scientific deficiencies, and decide to accept these
temporarily (hoping that with further development the YEC-science will
improve and become more satisfactory) in order to achieve the perceived
theological benefits of a young-earth view."
The first sentence is classical YEC (by Henry Morris,...); the second
sentence was recently added to describe the views of Paul and John Mark.
