Incompatibility of Geology with YEC

I know that I along like every other person of faith believe things that in the end I'll find out are wrong. There is no one in the last nearly 2000 years that has everything right about their theology. It is important to get the basics right. One of the basics is not how old the earth is or for that matter how God went about creation.The YEC's that I know are really good Christians, and when I say that I'm talking about how they live their lives. The trouble is many of those really good Christians are in danger of losing their faith if they tie their faith to a literal reading of the Bible and a 6000 year old planet. It seems many do just that. In addition many people in North America that aren't Christian believe that in order to be Christian you have to believe in a that same 6000 year old earth. They reject it. It is a huge stumbling block.I really admire your commitment. I wonder though; would your faith hold up if you were to come to the conclusion that the world is more than 6000 years old whether or not you accept the ToE?I know that we are both just searching for truth and you are convinced of the truth of your position, and frankly in my opinion you are one of the few YEC's that have actually put thought into it and not just accepted it as part of the package. I understand it that you believe that you are defending the truth. At least know that there are others that disagree with you that are as committed to the service of the Lord as you are. We don’t just hold this belief because of cultural pressure.Theology and the study of the Bible can gives scriptural answers to the spiritual and moral side of our lives. Why not accept that in the same way science studies the physical and can give us answers as it regards the physical part of God's creation. The Christian faith and science are not only compatible but are complimentary. I read books on science and am absolute blown away by the creative side of God, just as I am with the revelation of God's justice, mercy and love as found in the Bible.I believe that the God of Christianity holds the past, present and future of all mankind in His hands. That is why I'm so concerned about what I believe to be a misinterpretation of the God's revelation to us by YEC, and the damage I see it doing to His church. The trouble is I know you feel the same way about my position, however my position doesn't cause people of faith to lose it because their faith isn't consistent with what we learn from observing God's creation.
