From the Beginning: Question from a High School Student

[swamidass (S. Joshua Swamidass)]

Thanks for joining the conversation @Faithdefender.

@Faithdefender

Also if anyone here has a degree or experience in exegesis and hermeneutics, I’d be very interested in what they have to say.

Yes, there are many people like that here. Did you have a question for them? If you add it here, perhaps @deuteroKJ or @jongarvey could help out.

@Faithdefender

Ok. All of your answers have been interesting to read. I have a few scientific arguments in mind, but if you’ve already had conversations like this before, could you show me another forum to go to? Maybe then I’ll see some of the arguments that I have in mind and that you’ve already addressed.

You can always search this forum to see if questions have been raised already. In particular, you should look at this series by @jammycakes: The 10 Best Evidences for a Young Earth.

And this very helpful history lesson on YEC by @kkeathley: The Origin of Young-Earthism 50 Years Ago - #2 by deuteroKJ.

Once again, feel free to ask your question here. There are several really strong scientists here that can help you directly, or point you to resources on the web that can answer your questions.
