There are several scientists on this list that are absolutely convinced that the scientific evidence proves a young earth. In fact, the debates that I've attended (Over 20) have been overwhelmingly in favor of the young earth position. You understand that TIME and CHANCE are the only variables that evolutionists have to make their fantasy possible. If you take away the TIME, their fantasy is exposed.

As to the Ark... Only the parent “kinds” of species were required to be on board in order to repopulate the earth. Using a short cubit of 18 inches (46 cm) for the Ark to be conservative, less than half of the cumulative area of the Ark’s three decks need to have been occupied by the animals and their enclosures.

As a presuppositionalist, I will never discount that the written word of God is without error from cover to cover. It is the only truth written to mankind and all so called "knowledge" is based on assumptions.
