Your particular view,Faith, isn't the one that EvC is all about. Most of us don't mind you decided that the Bible is literally true. I, myself, am quite happy with the position you put forward here.
It is totally Bible base. It is admittedly and completely not a science based view. That is fine.
That view has no place in the secular science classroom. As long as YEC's keep out of the classromm I have no problem with them.
It is so-called "scientific-creationism" that we argue with. It does claim that the Bible can be supported scientifically and, therefore, is subject to scientific falsification as well that "we" argue with. That "we" inlcudes the geologists (e.g.) that see that the Bible (in parts) can not be supported scientifically and "we" includes the believers who do not thing the Bible should be set up for a scientific challenge. The "scientific-creationism" is not science and it is a destructive influence on true faith.
You are welcome to your views and way of putting them forward as long as you continue to openingly admit that they aren't science.
