My answers have largely to do with expressing truth and knowledge in addition to imparting creation science and creationist thinking, and finally, giving my opinion. There is no need to bolster "certainty" when I have Jesus on my side. It seems that one has an issue with themselves if one needs to bolster their certainty of worldview. For example, facts -- as in creation facts thread -- I recently posted. How can any system, including evolution and its decreasing entropy, contradict the SLOT and still be successful? Is there even a system with decreasing entropy that isn't local? I also took down due to unpopular request of the race to find the model of DNA between Dr. Linus Pauling and Francis Crick and James Watson when Pauling turned out to be Unitarian and an atheist. While it wasn't provocative as creation scientist vs atheist scientist, the story was still an exciting and good one to tell for those interested in science and discovery. I finally got the lowdown of what happened during their race. This, after learning about Pauling's atheism from Sapiens, so it may be a story to tell for another day. The end also includes what happened to Crick.
Also, I have my opinions or thinking based on creation science, as well. It's the latter of which you speak. It's not mainstream YEC, but who knows one day it could be. If Elon Musk can make statements like, "The future of humanity is going to bifurcate in two directions: Either it's going to become multiplanetary, or it's going to remain confined to one planet and eventually there's going to be an extinction event." I think he meant for us to become multiplanetary since he founded a space travel company, but ironically he was right in the latter statement. We will remain confined to one planet and eventually there's going to be an extinction event. The Bible prophecies and the fine tuning theory lead me to believe so. We like to believe there is a better future, but it could turn out to be an apocalyptic one instead. The catastrophism of war and famine could lead us to be tested beyond the limits of our own countries. We've experienced war, famine and other tough times, and today, we live with a state of in-between. We're not so bad off, but we're not in agreement for a bright, sunny future either. Iran turned out to not be a threat, as predicted, but it doesn't mean that it won't cause problems down the road either. There are enough terror incidents that it could lead to escalation of violence. In the US, we have antifa groups and a rise in terror incidents. Who and what groups are the new terrorists? The best we can hope for is that violence can be controlled and not lead to rioting and bloodshed on the streets. To do this, we have to reach some common ground instead of focusing on differences. To that end, we have to keep our politics, science and religion in equilibrium. I don't think we'll find out who's worldview was right until the end. Was it creation science or atheist science?
