Amidst all the ‘noise’, I do see some of you actually responded with links to challenges to YEC. I appreciate it; I’ll certainly check those out.
And Brian, there are portions of Creationism that are not scientific (belief in God), and portions that are. Over, it needs to be logically sound. It’s challenges to the overall soundness of the model I’m interested in researching. And so far, it’s looking pretty solid…and obviously miss understood by many.
BTW, anyone here take that same level of effort to research challenges to evolution? I really am curious.

Here's a challenge. Describe a falsifiable, testable model for young earth creationism that is fully internally coherent, as well as fully coherent with human scientific knowledge in the fields of physics, astronomy, cosmology, chemistry, biology, geology, and any other fields I've forgotten. I don't even care if it's biblically consistent (though I bet you do).
Get published in a mainstream peer reviewed journal and have your model survive the review process.
You know, kind of like mainstream science does with it's leading theories.
If you can't do that, you're just pissing in the wind.
