Does anyone even listen to creationists these days?

[Greyblades]

You know, I never really understood why christians are creationists.

I mean creationism is from the old testament and the entire premise of chrsitianity kinda relies on the idea that the old testament is imperfect, otherwise what's the point of the new one.
So why is this part of the imperfect old testement being considered perfect truth when faced with irreputable evidence of it being false?

Outside the US I think Creationism mostly exists in the minds of its opponents, I get pretty sick of the whole "do you believe in evolution?" question when people find I out I believe in God and want him to send me back in time to save the Roman Empire so we can all have jetpacks and have colonies on Saturn's moons.

Mostly in our minds? Perhaps, most of the time I dont really care what people believe when they keep it to themselves and dont harm anyone.

Things get a bit different when they start meddling in kid's education.

Or get on US science councils.
