Truth From an Evolutionist?

Today in our local school, one of my friend's daughters learned a valuable lesson. Apparently God is lying to us. The earth, she was told, is billions of years old. When she said, "That is not true," the teacher began to mock her beliefs by saying that it must be true for everyone else, but it is not true for her. Now everytime the subject of evolution comes up, the teacher continues to mock how it is true for everyone except her.

Imagine that. An evolutionist mocking God's truth. On what basis is evolution declared true? Science proves it of course. How does science prove evolution? Since science is atheistic by definition, then everything must have a naturalistic explanation. Observations are the only way we know things.

Hold on now. Is the definition of science atheistic and naturalistic? What about the laws of logic? Who proved them to be true? Did we observe them is a test tube? How do we know observations are the only things we can know? Where did that rule come from? By the way, who has observed evolution? Was the teacher there?

I asked my son tonight, if he were allowed to go back to day 20 of the creation, how old would Adam look like? If he were an evolutionist, would Adam be considered a liar if Adam said he was only 20 days old while looking like he was 25?

Who is telling the truth anyway? Last time I checked, ALL of the science text books have been changed to meet the more modern scientific claims and the refuted earlier claims of science, but I discovered that when God speaks, His words stand forever. In a court of law, if someone has to keep changing their story [think of John Kerry and the Swift Boat Vets example], then perhaps that someone is a liar.

Let God be true and every man a liar.
