In reply to Sean Benson.

Right on, Sean. What's more, when our young people learn the facts about the fossil record, the genetic bush of life (however scrambled), and the physical similarities and differences between organisms living and dead, they all too often reject Christ. We need to reach out to scientists, too; and if we try to tell them that the world was made in 6 days, they will think we're just pushing our religion; and if we push "creation science," they will think that we are pushing snake oil too. Precisely because the gospel is so precious, it should not be bound up in the mythology of the ancient Middle East.
