I disagree. The vast majority of humans are smart enough to be able to learn more and then make up their own minds they don't have to just choose who to believe.

Anyone can go and find out more information about what is in the bible and what the science is and then make their own determination. I'm sure any scientist would want someone to learn more rather than just 'believe' the science.

And actually I'm sure most preachers would want the person to learn more about the bible and gain their own faith.

I have went to my biologist friends about a couple of points in the evolution/creationism discussion.

They didn't know, and but believed in the science.

I think that other than a few experts, almost no one takes the time to know/understand without the need of faith (and that is ignoring trusting the experimentalists to be doing good science) in the experts.

As far as YEC goes, the theology can be discussed... but the science is just pointing out possible inconsistencies within the evolution theoretical framework. I guess there is science the other way, but it is just lunacy and I don't think that anyone who really values science gives it any value.

(Maybe more time should be spent on the theology, there is a reason why ~100 years ago there were very few YECs.)
