I probably should have specified "young earth" creationists. And I'm leery of reading too much into polls that show people not "believing" in evolution, as the wording on things is often open to interpretation.
I think you'd still be surprised at the true % of young earth creationists in this country
I'll say this, I think it's ignorant to guess how old the Earth is because nobody really knows. You can say they have "proof" all you want, but the fact is nobody knows what something looks like billions of years old. Sure you can make a guess by using theories, but theories are just that. I'm not saying the Earth is young or old, but guessing an age on something like this is improbable for the simple fact it's not something we the human race have been around long enough to observe. As for evolution... This isn't Pokemon... I'll leave it at that. I don't really have a belief as far as is god real or not. It doesn't make a difference what you believe because it will not change the facts and we don't know the facts. Some think they do and others think they do. At the end of it all though it won't matter. You are either going to an afterlife or you are not. Your beliefs won't change those facts.
Why were dinosaurs here before humans? Did God screw up?
In Catholic school they teach that Genesis (and large other portions of the Bible) are metaphor, not literal. And 7 "days" are not meant literally either. So no, the dinosaurs would not be a "screw up"
2. How can Homosexuality be considered "normal" in an Evolutionist's/ScienceIsMyGod world when it's CLEARLY not a species promoting behavior??
I've always figured that homosexuality is an ad-hoc genetic response to overpopulation. I don't have any scientific evidence to back that up, it just makes sense to me. There are around 1500 species of animals that have been observed where a small percentage of the population displays homosexual behavior up to and including sex, so there must be a reason for it.
