  1. It is difficult to find any statement more deeply celebrating the scientist's vocational search for truth than Aquinas' - "a mistake about creation results in a mistake about God." --> #racism, #misogyny, #patriarchy, #homophobia, #transphobia, #youngearth, #climatedenial....

  5. The clash between science and scripture runs deeper than fossils. From Ellen White’s visions to courtrooms and canyons, the 6,000-year debate reveals how belief still shapes modern America.

  7. Weirdly, but not surprisingly, you can be religious into #youngearth creationism — Earth is less than 6,000 years old, like the Jewish calendar — but not be bothered by the 280ppm being god-given and worth holding onto. For reasons. Right-wing ones.

    Or, you can be like #RFKjr into a kind of #wellness that rejects modern life, like #flouride and be #antivaxxers, but again — not be bothered by 280ppm being a good thing. For reasons. Similar ones.

    I’ve put an arrow for when that TV show was.

  19. Kent E. Hovind (or, to use his full former academic title Kent E. Hovind, inmate #06452-017) (1953–) is a young Earth #creationist, promoter of imminent millennialism, con man, professional liar, and convicted felon.

    Hovind promotes Young Earth creationist and #Christian #dominionist views in lectures and videos sold or publicized through his Creation Science Evangelism organization (despite having no legitimate degree).

    Hovind created The Hovind "Theory" to explain how the global flood got all the water — namely, a comet did it. Hovind then proceeded to ignore all scientific evidence on dinosaurs gathered this side of 1960. Not satisfied with this record of failure, in 2001, Hovind started Dinosaur Adventure Land, an amusement park in his backyard.

  23. The evidence against a recent creation is overwhelming. With the possible exception of Flat Earthism, there is no greater affront to #science than Young Earth creationism (YEC).

    This article collects a near-exhaustive list of evidences that place a lower limit on the age of the Universe beyond the 6,000 to 10,000 years asserted by most Young Earth creationists (YECs) and the literalist Ussher chronology. All of this evidence supports deep time: the idea, considered credible by scientists since the early 1800s, that the Earth (and the Universe) is millions or billions of years old. Modern science accepts that the Earth is about 4.54 billion years old and the entire universe is around 13.77 billion years old.

  25. Raymond "Ray" Comfort, also known as Banana Man is a #Protestant #Christian author, video producer, street preacher, and liar for Jesus. Comfort is a young Earth creationist and opposes the theory of #evolution. His arguments for a young Earth are entirely unfounded in science, demonstrate basic misunderstandings of #evolution and #science in general, & often aren't even based on reality.

  31. Is there a name for the #LogicalFallacy where someone rejects any scientific finding as being part of a supernatural "test" that the observer is failing?

    I had a #YoungEarth coworker years ago who dismissed carbon dating evidence, saying "God put those bones in the ground like that to test our faith. My faith is strong enough that I won't believe it." After someone makes this sort of statement, further discussion seems futile.

  34. I suppose I need to acknowledge that one of the coauthors has gotten into a bit of hot water lately, but I still regard this particular book as one of the more important anti-YEC books out there, written as it is from the perspective of people who themselves were once #YoungEarth #creationists. It's definitely worth your time if you expect to encounter #creationism at all, yourself.

  39. As the books I've shared by @JoschuaKnuppe and Kirk Johnson & #RayTroll nicely bridge the gap between books aimed at older and younger readers, I'll pivot for a moment to boost a couple books I've reviewed aimed more or less exclusively at older audiences. Something I happen to share with Kirk Johnson is a childhood steeped in #YoungEarth #Creationism (YEC), & I'm very appreciative of #GodsWordOrHumanReason, another one @keesey had a hand in.
