In terms they understand
George W. Bush Darkens Counsel by Words without Knowledge:
One of the greatest passages in the Bible is when “the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind”:
Where was thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Declare, if thou hast understanding.
Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest?
Or who hath stretched the line upon it?
Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?
Or who laid the corner stone thereof;
when the morning stars sang together,
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?Creationism is a way of responding to this profound challenge by saying “I know! I know! You did it just like I woulda!”
Exactly. Creationism here includes Intelligent design creationism.
