I wish some proponents of YEC would study how the Roman Catholic church deals with the difficult issues of Genesis and modern science (I am not Catholic but I think they do a good job of not distorting the Bible or science). They have some conservative scholars who take the Biblical text seriously, just like YEC proponents take the text seriously – they reach conclusions different from YEC but they also are not like liberal Protestants who more or less dismiss the text. Sorry to bring up more than one issue here.
