Creationists typically spend up their time flailing away at the various flaws and inconsistencies in the theory of evolution. They appear to believe that if they disprove the theory evolution, then they have proved the theory of creation. They do not seem to realize that they actually have to present positive scientific evidence of a theory of creation before people actually buy into it. Even if there were to disprove the theory evolution, there would be no need to necessarily believe creationism over say the Hindu theory of creation.
My challenge for creationists is to present positive scientific evidence that the world was created less than 10,000 years ago. Scientific evidence would include for example a geological formation that would positively indicate that the world was less than 10,000 years old.
Along those lines, the creationist could present scientific evidence that:
All animals and plants were created at the same time in the recent past.
That a global flood took place in the recent past
That all animals and plants radiated from a Common Point of origin in the Middle East in the recent past
That olive trees can regenerate and grow new leaves within a few weeks of immersion in a global flood
That eight people can effectively care for 16,000 animals on a ship for a year
That a wooden ship of the dimensions of the ark could actually be built given Bronze Age tools and would be sea worthy.
Creationist could prove the items by actually going out in the field and doing archeological expeditions with the goal of locating for example kangaroo fossils in say Pakistan or Indonesia. They could actually build an ark, using Bronze Age technology, staff it, stock it with supplies of their choice, and 16,000 animals of their choice, and sail it. They could try to locate Precambrian layers of rock in which, for example, reptiles, mammals, birds, and fish all appear at once. They could locate through research that biological barrier which prevents micro- evolution from becoming macroevolution.
If they accomplished all or any one of the things, they would not only disprove evolution, but also prove creationism. Despite this, I've yet to find any creationist or creationist organization trying to actually prove their theory. I have looked through several creationist Web sites and have yet to find anyone trying to achieve or even suggest projects that would prove any of creationist tenets. I may be wrong about this, and so I'm willing to be enlightened. Can any creationist direct me to any source that presents this kind of positive scientific evidence of creationism?
Failing that could any creationist on this forum present that kind of evidence?
