As a follow up to these 12 insights of young earth creation (YEC) scientist - Jeremy Walter, PhD, (1 of 2) I offer up 12 more from this well qualified man before I move on to other young earth creation (YEC) scientists.

"The implications of the science of thermodynamics were instrumental in convincing that long periods of time are not only unnecessary, but also lethal to theories of gradual and natural development of intelligent design."
"Man's conscious and spiritual aspects defy strict scientific definition, much less a natural process of development."
"The passing of long periods of time cannot constitute or facilitate an independent cause for the development of human bodies, aptitude and ability."
"The false goes of Mother Nature and Father Time are inferior substitutes for the great and awesome Creator of the Scriptures."
"Science cannot prove the universe to be of great age, and that prodigious age would in fact be detrimental rather than beneficial to the development of complexity and order."
"The interpretation of observed data hinges solidly on the concepts of truth held by investigators, not the facts themselves."
"Faith commitments to either human reason or biblical revelation influence what hypotheses are considered and how data is accepted or rejected."
"...false notion established during the modern age that reality and truth are limited to the empirical, and that man's knowledge and reasoning are our supreme gods."
"The concept of a living, volitional, personal and loving First Cause is willfully rejected even though it is completely compatible with both science and the Bible."
"If the mainstream academic community accepts an unproven concept as fact and excludes alternative thinking by decree, then the potential for error to be systematically preserved and promoted is institutionalized."
"Our universe was created fully functioning in six 24-hour days."
"The priniciples and observations of true science do not contradict a literal interpretation of Genesis 1, but in fact offer support for the creation of all things in six days."
That's one scientist that agrees with me.
