I'll propose a few other analogies.
A) YEC is your weird uncle. Someone has to be
him, but sensible people stay away.
B) YEC is a big hot air balloon. Do we wait for
it to float away? Or, do we deal with the
carnage when it bursts?
C) YEC is like a beautiful spring day. That turns
into a tornado.
D) YEC is a flat tire when you're in a hurry.
E) best case scenario - YEC is ignorance (that's
what it was for me). And I owe a debt of
gratitude to the ASA for providing (once I
looked hard enough) the articles that showed
you can believe in an historical Genesis and
an old earth. Sometimes, I think YEC is everything
that is wrong about Christians - the most dangerous
thing of all - unwillingness to listen.
