well, I never expected a lot of posters committed to evolutionism to ascribe any merit to biblical creationism !.
one merit is that it raises challenges to the prevailing dogma.
a dogma that appeals to various disciplines ,but short on much specific. it also has the advantage of claiming the higher ground because it can keep changing the story when new data messes up the previous version....except that deep time and naturalistic only causes are sacrosanct lines in the sand.
creation scientists point to specifics to evidence a much younger creation than deep time. but evolutionists just seem to believe they will eventually account for problems.
I don't need to be a scientist to understand that soft tissue could not survive 65+ million yrs, but you have to believe in deep time to make that belief override what science has measured as possible.

I did try and get my head around beardedbruces link, but I noted that it does not address the problem of the Sabbath day [ as frogprince pointed out] or numbers 7 where numbered days are clearly not long ages as claimed for gen 1 by dr whitehead.
I can of course cite Hebrew professers [not just evangelical] who say that the Hebrew reads much as it says in English.
