    I have noticed that we have YECs (or YEC types) that hang around this
    list.

    You guys should know better!

    Don't think that God just winks at and turns away from YECism.

    There will come a time when "YECs are the arrogant ones."

    And here's the sickening thing about arrogance (from my "humble"
    spiritual background). Arrogance gets ignored. Whether by God
    or by "healthy" people.

    Consider this. YEC dishonors Christianity. Don't think so? YECs
    don't look at the facts. They put all of their energy into "winning"
    arguments.

    I fully believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God (both
    history-wise and faith-wise). And the more that I study, the more
    that I am sickened by YEC. (I'm not real happy with "liberals" either,
    but I'll leave that for another time and place).

    So, all you YECs out there who "like to argue", consider this:

    While you are arguing and "condemning" the truth is being suppressed.

    Evidence for a local flood - OVERWHELMING
    Evidence of YEC Biblical ignorance - OVERWHELMING

    And back to the sickening part. You're probably incapable of having
    rational conversation about these things. But, on the off chance that
    there is a YEC out there with an open mind, I will post this.
