Norm, I confess to having more on my plate than I can handle. My B.A.
degree was Psychology/Theology. My B.S. was accounting. I have read an
incredible amount.
I haven't followed all of your previous posts. It sounds like you're not
willing to accept an old earth. I'm assuming that your reason for this is
the Bible. In light of what we know now, the Bible does not support an old
earth.
The church has done a pathetic job educating people.
There is a way to read Gen 1 as something other that a 144 creation.
Pastors,
etc. are either ignorant or too afraid to tell their congregations this.
Or,
they weakly accept Gen 1 as a lame story (try not to fall asleep or lose or'
faith).
