A Reply to Bruce Gordon's Biblical Critique of Young-Earth Creationism - This critique was published in October. Bruce Gordon is from Houston Baptist University. The response is long, as is the critique (30 pages). The critique can be read here. For YECs, this article by AiG is simply damage control. For OEC's, the Gordon article looks like a good read. The abstract states:
Young-earth creationism (YEC) is one of the more peculiar
manifestations of broader evangelical culture. It continues to be
the most common view of the relationship between science and
Scripture held in the evangelical community and, unfortunately but
understandably, the view of science
most non-Christians associate with evangelicalism. For
scientifically literate non-Christians, it presents an obstacle to
Christian faith, and for young Christians who have been raised to
equate YEC with the teaching of Scripture, it can destroy their
faith altogether when its falsity is discovered. With a view toward
encouraging a culture of biblical and scientific literacy and
overcoming the anti-intellectual
legacy of fundamentalism that sustains this particular “scandal of
the evangelical mind”, we offer a synoptic critique of young-earth
creationism while developing and defending an evangelically
acceptable alternative for understanding the relationship between
God’s works and God’s words.

Did you know that you can be a Christian,
and believe that the earth is billions of years old? You can even
believe in evolution and be a Christian. There is no conflict
between science and the Bible...all one needs is a proper
understanding how to merge science and the Bible. To learn more
about old earth creationism, see
