I apologize if my statement was confusing in any way. I do believe that creation is faith based. By saying that creation is real I intended to imply that many people arent taking it as seriously as it should be. Even though I believe in creation I also believe that evolution is real, but not in the ways that it is predominantly taught. Evolution is still theory even though it is taught as cold, hard fact. Dr. Hovind does cover this in The Hovind Theory at
http://www.drdino.com/Downloads/Seminar/mp3/index.jsp and his challenge for anyone to prove evolution $250,000 has still not been accomplished. I understand peoples hesitation in listening to such a clear and definitive description of creation vs. evolution as so many religious people have resisted all facets of evolution so dogmatically. I leaned against believing creation as the religious mainline believers did a few years ago, and still disagree with some of their beliefs. I knew that evolution is theory and did not dogmatically believe that either, but I returned to an even more complete understanding and belief in creation when I saw the evidences of creation throughout nature. Not just by how beautiful it is but how nature is constructed, its architecture, and how the Bible made extremely sophisticated statements concerning nature, the earth, stars, and planets well before and outside of the writers ability to know those things. Dr. Hovinds recordings are not the only source of information about creation science but they are the most complete Ive found over many years. Im just making the point that if evolution theory is taught in science class then creation theory is as worthy of attention, but neither of them really need to be taught in science class.
As for religious, I agree. Dogmatic, religious jargon is not a way to present either creation or evolution. True faith of any type does not need religion to prove its existence. Believing something just because a person wants to believe it is ok, believing in religion because someone needs it is ok too, but its not necessary. Faith is more without religion, and people tend to sell their faith in anything short when they decide to be stubborn and shortsighted rather than realistic about it. Religious and shortsighted faith has done a phenomenal job of ruining peoples faith rather than building faith throughout history.
