Evidence for Creationism

RE: Evidence for Creationism
(June 12, 2014 at 6:04 am)Jacob(smooth) Wrote: Seriously, the issue is not what the evidence is so much as what you read into it. To a yec, the grand canyon is evidence for the flood. What you're asking for is a list of the things people misinterpret.

The problem with the YEC interpretation of the evidence is it is not consistent with other observations. The geology of the Colorado plateau in general does not support rapid formation of the Grand Canyon within the last few thousand years.

Another example is Statler's one way speed of of light hog wash. In order for it to work he has to assume that synchronized clocks are in error when measuring the two way speed of light. They have to be in error just the right way to support his theory. There is however no reason to believe such an error exists. We use synchronized clocks every day for electronic communications and we don't see evidence of asymmetrical speed of light.

While the YEC's might be able to point out different ways of looking at single points of data, their interpretation is simply not consistent with everything else.
