"For example, are you saying that it would be impossible (or highly
unlikely) that the God you believe in would create the world in Six
Days? Or to be more specific, the God you believe in could not
possibly act in such a way that man's rational beliefs could be
radically in error?"

God, of course, can do whatever He wants. One must, however, not cast
rational beliefs in the dust to follow a fanciful interpretation of a
televangelist.

Allan suggests Comfort may be another Jack Chick. That is not a
favorable comparison!
