Scientific community acceptance? (Score 1)

The article itself says absolutely nothing about opinions on acceptance 'within the scientific community'! That was, apparently, the poster's desire to paint evangelicals in the worst possible light.

The truth is that most evangelicals simply believe what their pastors tell them about creation but almost all would be aware this is not supported by mainstream science.

A small minority carefully track the science of creation/evolution and choose to believe that the Flood really could create the fossil record and that the evidence of helium diffusion (presented at a mainstream geology conference) explains the dating problem.
