Is Creationism Really Possible?

Oldest human skeleton offers new clues to evolution
The oldest-known hominid skeleton was a 4-foot-tall female who walked upright more than 4 million years ago and offers new clues to how humans may have evolved, scientists say.

Many scientists (and specifically, athiests who set the locus of their beliefs solely on what science can prove) would say this is further evidence to refute the Judeo-Christian story of creation. I say that it is not impossible for the fossils to be that old. Was there a world before the world we exist in? Perhaps. Genesis gives us only a few clues. We DO know that when God created man, He made man in HIS image... and interestingly, He created man FULLY GROWN. So, perhaps when He created the earth, He also created it fully grown- millions and millions of years old. Who knows? The fact of the matter still remains, however, that researchers are having a difficult time trying to pinpoint when the two lineages -- chimps and humans -- split from their believed 'common ancestor'. I submit to you, they never will.

I believe that the idea of founding ones 'faith' on science alone, they have restricted their capacity for knowledge. If God truly controls the elements (II Peter 3) and that one day the elements will "melt with fervent heat", we know that in Him nothing is impossible. Funny, Christ talked about the elements before Dmitri Mendeleev fathered the periodic table of elements in 1869! I love my Jesus! He's a smart one! Definitely a keeper!
