"......utter palpable nonsense....."    Thank you Dave for your considered opinion of my beliefs.......however since you think it is nonsense , I invite you to point out to me where it conflicts with observable, testable , and repeatable science . And when you have done that I will gladly reciprocate by mentioning a few instances where evolutionism fails that test. It is easy to throw out insults,.....maybe harder to justify them!         And as for the suggestion that creation is a block to anyone becoming a Christian , perhaps you can cite a few instances of those who would have decided to become Christians were then turned away from that decision by creation .   I don't think I would have too much difficulty in finding testimonies of those who were not believers, who became Christians , after being exposed to the arguments of creationism.
