Starting Point: Old Earth Creation Views

My friend Kevin Nelstead at the GeoChristian blog has a nice post if you'd like to see a starting point for discussion about old earth creation views. It's not only the "new" science in recent times that leads people to think the earth is old, but the biblical text itself.

It hurts when I see brothers and sisters and whole churches dividing over creation accounts. I have strong convictions now, having studied the issues, but will not break fellowship with another believer who does not share my convictions. These are disputable matters -- and dialogue about them should encourage us and actually draw us together, rather than plowing ground for bitter roots to grow.
