I fully accept the Christian version of creation. To the letter. Creationists do not. Creationists try to shoe horn materialism and have the nerve to claim a literal understanding of the text. It would seem that you guys fall into the same trap.

Fully accept whatever you like Frodo,is that supposed to magically change it from ridiculous horseshit into something more palatable?

Creationists are a minority amongst Christians. Better?

Um....not really. Though I have no data to back it up, I would guess the vast majority of xtains are creationists. That being said, I believe that perhaps young earth creationist may be a minority. Maybe, by " creationist" , you mean those who believe exclusively in creation and reject BBAE. If that is the case, I might agree they would be a minority.
I would be interested in any information you have on this. Like I said, I have no data or evidence to back up my assertions, though I could probably locate some reliable statistics. In any case, I would be interested in any information you might have.

So, you are a "True Creationist"? Perhaps you should trademark that...

That was what was meant Baalzebutt. I have no statistics either. And I do mean to categorise creationists as those that refute bbae.

You both fall into the same trap, of believing in something which is totally stupid and totally incorrect.
That you can't agree on just how wrong you guys are as a group is why your dogma is worthless.

While I appreciate you rebranding the name of your religion to reflect the honesty of its claims, I'd prefer you keep the thread on topic.
