Creationist upset that other Christians think he’s an idiot

Ham believes that God is the Creator of the universe and that it took six literal days for God to create everything. That view, he says, is a consequence of accepting the authority of the Word of God as infallible. To reject that belief is to undermine that authority.

Yet many Christians, he laments, not only dismiss the literal reading of the Creation account but also feel embarrassed by it.

“In today’s modern scientific age, many Christians believe it’s an embarrassment to accept a straightforward reading of Genesis and that Christians should not reject the majority view in the scientific community that accepts millions of years and other evolutionary beliefs,” Ham, whose ministry is behind the Creation Museum, told The Christian Post this week.

One supporter of Answers in Genesis was stunned to encounter opposition to the literal six days view. The supporter, identified as J.C. from Boise, Idaho, described that incident to AiG.

“I was at the gym, in the locker room, telling a pastor how great the [Creation] museum was. Pastor Jack asked me, ‘You believe in a literal 6 days?’

“‘Absolutely!’ I replied.

“Then out of nowhere, a man came around the corner who overheard our conversation said, ‘Ken Ham is a piece of c-,’” J.C. recounted. “This man went on to tell me that he has four degrees, studies fossils, bends light, is a Christian, and is a follower of Reasons to Believe and its president Hugh Ross. But out of his same mouth he called a fellow Christian a piece of c-. There was no sign of the humble heart of a Christian.

“I can’t believe that I have fellow brothers and sisters wanting to side with ‘scientists.’
