Re: Let's say creation happened

is because they don't read creationist literature. If so this explains
why there is such ignorance in regard to the origin of life on earth.

But let's move on.

We believe in the Biblical account because of Noah's Ark, which has
been found. That's one reason. The other would be the book of Daniel.
And there are more reasons.

Clearly biblical creationism is true. The Bible lays out the beginning
in detail. The Bible was written by contemporaries and we can look at
today's Bible and see that it varies very little from much earlier
versions. Many of the people and places have been verified as having
exited at the time (though not all, but some day science may help with
that) and many of the events have been independently verified by other
contemporary writers (though again, not all). Those parts that we
cannot verify are mainly the word of God and we cannot know all God
knows, so there will always be parts that we cannot verify. Plus, it
has been translated into numerous languages and carefully handed down
through the generations for thousands of years now. And, with modern
science we can verify that the text was inspired (if not directly
written) by God. I am sure everyone is familiar with the Bible codes.

Of course, the Koran is also true as it too was written by
contemporaries, translated into many languages, carefully handed down
from generation to generation, and varies very little from much earlier
versions. In fact, since it is newer, it must have fewer errors and
therefore must be more true.

The Book of Mormon was written even later and so it must be even more
true than the Bible and the Koran. I am just now getting around to
reading the Wizard of Oz, and as I understand, it was written not too
long ago and is virtually identical to the original version, so it must
be very, very true. My copy was handed down to me by my mother, who
begot it from her father, who begot it from his mother, and if I have
children I will beget it to them, so I am sure it is the true gospel.
And as an added bonus, someone told me that the text contains similar
codes to the Bible including something about Chaney shooting a man in
the face so it too must have been inspired by God.
