You know, I can't really say it better than Dr. Jason Lisle did in his article titled "Can creationists be scientists?". So, I'll just quote a couple lines and then link to the full story, so please go visit and enjoy what he has to say.

Quote

It has been often said that "creationists cannot be real scientists."

Several years ago, the National Academy of Sciences published a guidebook entitled Teaching about Evolution and the Nature of Science.1 This guidebook states that evolution is "the most important concept in modern biology, a concept essential to understanding key aspects of living things."

In addition, the late evolutionist Theodosius Dobzhansky once made the now well-known comment that "nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution."

But is a belief in "particles-to-people" evolution really necessary to understand biology and other sciences? Is it even helpful? Are there any technological advances that have been made because of a belief in evolution?

Although evolutionists interpret the evidence in light of their belief in evolution, science works perfectly well without any connection to evolution. Think about it this way: is a belief in molecules-to-man evolution necessary to understand how a computer works, how planets orbit the sun, how telescopes operate, or how plants and animals function? Has any biological or medical research benefited from a belief in evolution? No, not at all.

Congratulations to one of my hero's in the faith Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis. I have followed this mans ministry for almost 10 years and I am happy to see him achieve this milestone that is about to take place this Memorial Day with the Grand Opening of the Creation Museum Located in Kentucky near the Cincinnati Ohio area.

Ken Ham, in my opinion, is an unsung hero and defender of the Bible and Christian Faith today, with his dedication to using science to prove the Genesis account of Creation and in a day when it is very unpopular to stand up and say "I believe in 6 days of creation" and "I believe in Noah's flood, that covered and destroyed the whole earth." This man relentlessly trudges on with the truth. Lord I pray that you bless this ministry as it continues in Your will and proclaims your words to be true.

For those of you that still wish to be, as Peter puts it, 'willingly ignorant' about the Red Sea being misinterpreted as Reed Sea, here is another thing to contemplate.

Consider Nehemiah chapter 9, this takes place after the Babylonian captivity and King Cyrus orders the walls and the Temple of Jerusalem to be rebuilt and later Artaxerxes sends Nehemiah to be governor of Jerusalem and to oversee the rest of the project. The walls are rebuilt and everyone is gathered together and Ezra reads the Law of Moses to them and afterward a prayer is prayed and here is part of it:

Ne 9:9 And didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest their cry by the Red sea; 10 And shewedst signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudly against them. So didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day. 11 And thou didst divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou threwest into the deeps, as a stone into the mighty waters.

After Ezra dusts off some old documents and the begin to read a part of Moses' account of what took place, they were left with the impression also that the Egyptians were drown in deep waters "thou threwest into the deeps". Red Sea being deep, Reed Sea being but inches.

So, lets give God credit for the dramatic, that He is able to dramatically rescue His people from their enemies when they follow and trust Him.

2Pe 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:

Get outta here!! you mean to tell me that Peter actually called this way back then. Number one that they would say "where is he? if God is real then why does he delay his coming? Number two that they willingly are ignorant of a worldwide flood, regardless of all the overwhelming evidence. You know how many times I read this? and bam! one day it just hits ya. Good call Peter.
