You read that subject line correctly. According to Ken Ham (surprise?), this is the bottom line reason why young people are leaving churches in droves. Amazing. But true -- that is, it's true that Ham thinks this is the reason.

I saw a copy of this book today, browsed it a bit, and that's the bottom line for him.
I guess the youth just don't leave those churches where they're taught the YEC view. That's certainly what Ham wants you to think. He's not about to admit that his rigidity on this issue is one of the reasons why people won't give Christianity a second look -- not those on the inside, but those on the outside looking in, who might otherwise go further with their spiritual curiosity.
