BTW, "God created the earth with the fossils already in place" is a straw man. If you would take the time to investigate the organizations I have referenced you would realize this is not what we believe. Granted, not all who believe in a young earth fully understand the fine distinctions any more than the average lay person understands all the ins and outs of neo-Darwinism vs classical Darwinism vs Punctuated Equilibrium. If you want to attack Young Earth Creationism, find out first what the scientific arguments are of the PhD (some multiple PhD) scientists who hold this position, not the incomplete understanding of laypeople or the caricatures of opponents.
