GotQuestions.org Negative Toward OEC View!

Post by Philip »

Was just surfing around on another topic, and came across this misrepresentation and negative short essay concerning Progressive Creationism, by Gotquestions.org: http://www.gotquestions.org/progressive ... onism.html

There is little objectivity in it, that's for sure. It's pretty much a case of, Evolution posits the earth is billions of years old, which is impossible. And Progressive Creationism teaches the same belief of age - and desires to harmonize the Bible and known science. Therefore, PG is wrong for many of the same reasons. And then they build in false assumptions/assertions to make their case. Otherwise, GotQuestions is typically a good Biblical resource. Pity they posted that.

I wrote them a letter a while back regarding their description of PC. They have since changed some of their wording. It used to be worse.

What, did they once insinuate a politically link the term "Progressive" - as in, like such people are likely Progressive DEMOnCRATS? :mrgreen:

No. They just posted the usual straw man beliefs about PC/DA.
