Young Earth Creationism is Possible.

Thank you and I have no intentions of playing lawyer style semantics and technicalities, so lets begin.I will proceed with three contentions on why the Creation story that we find within the Abrahamic religions is "Capable of happening, existing, or being true without contradicting proven facts, laws, or circumstances."1.Scientific RevolutionsScience and thus our understanding of the natural laws of the universe are in flux and thus are subject to paradigm shifts. For instance imagine being a Chinese scholar 1400 years ago and investigating illness. You would know from contemporary scientific understanding to look for the presence of Miasma in the region. This was the paradigm of understanding and thus theories and research alike were limited until a Scientific Revolution changed the limits of understanding. Since these revolutions or paradigm shift have happened without cease and many past theories have been discredited and modified(sometimes both and then at a latter point we reclaim the original position.)it would be absurd to think that our contemporary scientific understanding will not be discredited with the passage of time. Therefore to rely on any scientific evidence as means of proving Young Earth Creationism or any other theory is both limiting and unsatisfactory grounds to demonstrate that any given theory or belief as not possible.http://philosophy.wisc.edu... This view is credited as Thomas Kuhn's, however the Miasma piece is of my own creation.2.Epistemological Anarchism.On top of "Scientific Revolutions" and paradigm shifts consider the following:-Has there throughout the history of science been a fixed scientific method?-If there has not been a fixed scientific method then our acceptance of the contemporary method is an Authoritarian and dogmatic assumption that the scope of understanding is limited to what can be empirically proven.-Therefore no matter how solid, even the most grounded and well proven theory in the history of science is still limited to the scientific method and paradigms of understanding.-Since it is limited, then the best scientific theory out there and all the perceived evidence is unable to examine or provide any satisfactory answer as that that which cannot be empirically proven. This demonstrates that understanding the universe(and it's creation) is only a half truth when merely explained through the perspective of science.Ex. The famous creationist suggestion as god created the fossil record and the appearance of an old Universe to test our faith. Well God as a metaphysical concept and his ability to create the appearance of an old universe is wholly unpardonable nor is there any evidence to suggest such a claim is true. There is no way of telling if it is correct or not, the decision to put faith in that claim is up to you. However since Science cannot give us a definite answer, it is unable to provide us with the conclusion that we must disregard the possibility that the aforenoted creationist and Young Earth Creationism all together. This means despite how many scientific laws and facts have been gathered against YEC, YEC is still possible as the "laws and facts" are subjected to the contemporary paradigms of understanding and limits of scientific universe to that which is empirical and therefore material.http://monoskop.org... This insight has been posited by Paul Feyerbend, I have applied his insight to a topical example.Descartes' DoubtNow lets take this to the highest level of skepticism, as found in Section IV of "A discourse on Method"-Rene Descartes.Descartes proposes to us the following terrifying reduction:1. Our perceptions of what is real depends on our senses and mind.2. Our senses have the ability to be false and our mind has the ability of delusions.3. If both one and two are true then there is no way for us to determine anything is true or false(let alone empirically evident), except for our own existence as for us to be able to think about this there must be something that is doing the thinking.4. If three is true then the only thing then our understandings of the universe and it's nature could all be a fantasy, and since that possibility exists it is certainly rational that Young Earth Creations is not only possible but an equally valid to any other theory of the creation of the universe as we cannot show anything is absolute beyond our own existence.points 1-3 are Rene's (and can be found in the source I listed above) and 4 is of my own creation.Now it is up for Con for his opening arguments!
