It's not important to identify strongly with Darwinism per se. But what IS
important to me is to attempt to be perfectly honest in pursuit of the
truth. For a while I was myself tempted down the YEC route. But in the
end I found that the science ( sorry I should say pseudo-science) promoted
by organisations such as AiG was completely insupportable, and that I could
no longer hold those views and maintain my personal integrity. See my other
posting about AiG's commitment to Russ Humphreys's cosmology, despite it
being rigorously disproven by another YEC who at least is honest enough to
admit it's not a solved problem. I'm not aligning myself with an
organisation that refuses to look honestly at all the evidence.

What we have to do is to go with what the best evidence we have shows, if we
are to be honest in our science. If evidence turns up that strongly counts
against Darwinism in favour of something else, then, and only then, does
Darwinism go out of the window.
