Okay, I realise I’m a week late on this, but it’s good stuff, and many may have missed Mark’s thinking.

Mark is a former student and lecturer of Moore College, currently studying for his Ph D. at Oxford. He’s a smart cookie and he learned me some good doctrine and church history before he left for the UK.

He shares his thoughts from a recent discussion with creationists (young earth/6 day/creation-as-evangelism adherents), a conversation which didn’t seem to turn out too well. As usual though, Mark’s gentleness and clear, sharp theological thinking are on display.

He’s up to three posts on creationism thus far:
Problems With Creation Science I: Absence of a Theology of Creation
Problems With Creation Science II: On Taking the Bible Literally
Problems With Creation Science III: A Tale of Two Chronologies

What I love is that Mark tackles the theology of creationism, rather than the ’science’.
