The prevailing young earth explainations that God
created the earth with the rich geological and fossil complexity are unreasonable
arguements — a faked fossil record is a deception... is God a liar?
If these people are going to call for conservation, then they better make it a point to lead by example, otherwise they're easily dismissed as being trivial by someone who doesn't bother to read the full science when they get into the issue, thus
creating a case where the people providing the
arguement are, through their own actions, weakening it.
