Since he bases his entire argument on his belief in God, he does have a
base for this...

No, this isn't a meaningless question.
I guess I have to reword what I'm saying:
What I am trying to say is that those who claim that the Creationist
theory is impossible based on current scientific evidence are wrong.
There have been claims within these discussions made to the effect that
to believe in Creationism is somehow "absurd". What I am asking you to
do is tell me why it is absurd - not because YOU THINK that the Bible or
a belief in God or any such is absurd, but why it is absurd
SCIENTIFICALLY.
I'm not even asking for proof, just show me any scientific evidence that
contradicts the Bible.
