Creationism, Science, and Atheism

We're doing something new.

I have said over and over again that I don't deal with creationists, because evolutionary theory is so well proven, and so basic to the biological sciences, that it needs no defending from the likes of me. But it occurred to me that both scientists and creationists seem content to leave one aspect of the whole "debate" almost entirely unexamined: creationism itself. Because if the evidence is inconsistent with the earth being only six thousand years old, then whatever the (alleged) failings of biologists and geologists, the creationist is nonetheless left with a very simple choice: either reject biblical creationism, or reject the empirical sciences -- while continuing to enjoy the fruits of the empirical sciences, such as YouTube. Apologists like to accuse atheists of "stealing from God," but in fact, many of them are stealing from science!

So this video will be, depending on my abilities and your interest, the first in a series on creationism.
