The thing to remember here is that you have something more than the lower animals in the sense of reasoning.
The animals have built into them and instinctive ability. We have a seat of reasoning as you know when you find yourself talking to yourself?
As you look around and view all the things of the earth and the heavens, read Romans 1:18-23. because I don't think you read that one?
The History Book? It is the only place you can go to get the answer about creation?, I am not talking about creationism.
What's the difference? The latter puts everything into a 6- 24 hour day and the earth being less than ten thousand years old, common sense tells us that's ridiculous.
To look at the bible as a book that is supporting true science it shows to be right on.
For example, When did man find out the earth was round? Try reading Isa 40:22,23.
Many times people read the bible and don't see the facts of it because of all the words? For example the word day can mean 24 hrs, 1000 years, 7000 years, 7 million years, or even 7 billion. To the Almighty God of the Bible, Time is no problem, its only a problem to us? mankind.
If you look again into the book? and try looking from a study perspective you will find answers that will give you what you are looking for? Try using the bible word dictionary then study what the thoughts say in the passages.
Your last statement that you already have read it? Says that you think its either not true? or that you already know all? I have studied it for40 years and have barely touched the surface. If you have specific questions feel free to ask?

It is amazing how much bullsh!t an honest question can get. However there where a couple of people who put down some source of material ( Thankyou ). I would suggest taking a look at the AIG website it is good to kill the time, They have a great section on arguments creationist should not use, other than that it takes 3 minutes to find articles that point out flaws in there views. Suzanne Provided a great website where someone was actually thinking, however with the exception of the first and last answer the information is from the 50's and 60's (check the source list at the bottom). For the first and last questions look up Dave Matson's work on the net he sums those up nicely.
The Only real stumper is the first law of thermodynamics which shows a lack of understanding in the science community. However this is being researched as we speak. Because we dont know does not mean god did it. You answer questions by comparing the unknown to the known, then research. You dont answer an unknown with an even greater unknown. sorry for the long answer.

You'll need to first define "creationism." I would suggest you start by considering it to be the proposition that life (and even the universe itself) came into existence by some other means than blind, purposeless, natural processes (that is to say, there was a transcendent creator involved here). In support of this you could explore some of the following lines of evidence.
* Big Bang theory, which implies a beginning to everything and thus an external cause.
* Fine Tuning in the laws of physics, which is sometimes referred to as the Anthropic Principle, or the Teleological Argument. Even atheistic physicists have noted that there is a delicate balance in the laws of nature that permit things like atoms, stars, complex molecules, and biology to exist.
* Morality. If you believe (as most people do in practice) that "good" and "bad" are not simply whatever humans make them out to be, then you need to ground that idea in some external moral lawgiver.
* Consciousness, freewill, reason. Without a soulish element that transcends our physical bodies, then these things are simply illusory properties foisted upon us by our complex biochemistry.
* Abiogenesis - the problem of the appearance of the very first organism from raw chemistry. This is an open and troublesome question from a purely materialistic perspective.
* Intelligent Design. This relates to the inadequacy of evolutionary theory to explain most of the things found in the biological world.
Each of these things, and various others I could mention, could be fleshed out in exhaustive detail. The meat is there--more than a lifetime of reading--if you are truly willing to pursue. I suggest you pick a topic first and dive in; and, of course, be honest enough to look at the best arguments on all sides.
Of course, this does not get you directly to biblical creationism, but the first step is to make plausible the idea that there is a creator who actually is involved and interested in humanity. After that it becomes reasonable to look at the evidence for specific involvement in human history, as might be recorded in the Bible or other such books.

When scientists claim that certain artifacts are millins/billions of years old, how do you think they determine that?
Because the fossil or whatever it is has gone thru certain stages of aging, etc, and it's only probable that it must be millions of years old. The thing is, how could we have technology that can recognize what a million years is, when we have never experienced a million years?! So many things have happened in 6 thousand years that could make a fossil look very old. for instance, a very extended soak in water....(the flood).
It has been important to people to keep documents on the times that they live in. The very oldest documents that can be found came from the Jews. It was very important that they keep documentation on blood lines...who came from who. I won't quote the bible (don't know that i can), but in the early old testament books, you'll see pages of "so-and-so, son of so-and-so" and so on. Even if we discount the book of Genesis, don't you think that any scientist (creationist or not) would have a major interest in ancient documentation?
They were the first people to make records and they are telling us what happened. I would actually consider those early books of the OT history rather than religion.
Doesn't it take faith to believe in any historical documentation? Why do you you believe that the French revolution happened? Is anyone alive from that era that we could interview? Romans were also keeping documentation in the "bible days", and their writings are viewed as concrete history. Why is that?

Todat we see as impossible that Athenea replaced into born from the ehad of zeus yet for the greeks it replaced into their faith. perhaps in some years the individuals think of is impossible that a reliable create 2 peoples... this is imposible and the place are the dinosaurs, the mamuts.....?? sure the teory of evolution is a teory yet in ordinary terms that's extra credible than each and all of the bible. prepare thsi is an errors. I went to a catholic college in Spain and my technology instructor replaced right into a clergyman and he never communicate us on the subject of the creationism. he reported you're loose to have faith what you like yet this is what I might desire to coach. US isn't greater in the event that they don'tsepare the religion and the state. How is available that the politicians says In God we have confidence, God facilitates us and a few thing else interior the "maximum greater " united states of america of the international whilst even interior the main cristians international locations (Spain, Portugal, Italy...) the church and the state are separated?

I have been offering proof for more then 2 years, but as Jesus, no ones believes me or the words Jesus spoke.
If you do not or can not see the truth, it was not meant for you, the Truth is meant only for those who truly seek the kingdom of heaven.
However, it is not for me to judge who receives and who does not, this judgment is reserved for God only.
Daniel 8:13 is written 200300 days and the Sanctuary is cleansed April 19, until the day Jesus is Glorified.
Daniel 12:11 is written 100290 days after the Sanctuary is cleansed is the time of the Jews fulfilled 280 AD
Daniel 12:12 is written 1003530 days is the day of the Blessed, and the "Promised Land" is revealed, I go to my Father's house to prepare a place for you.
From Abarham to Jesus and from Nathan to Jesus are 42 generations or 6 days of Labor (sowing of Seeds.) which leaves 1 day of Rest (Harvest) or a total of 1960 years.
A Time is before the 4th Age. TIMES equal 1960 years from Abraham until the time of the Jews fulfilled. from Jesus until 1960 AD is the 2nd Time in Times and is for the fulfillment of the Gentiles. A Half Time, is 980 years, and is the last, the 7th Age and is for the unbelievers. The Year of "rapture" is 2800 AD. The year of the End is 2940 AD.
You have been told the Truth according to the Word of God.
The 10th king is the 10 President of the U.S. and he shall fall to Gog and Magog. The 7 kings are 7 popes, and they shall fall also, but the 8th pope shall deceive many.
Don't let the deception of men deceive you.

The more you look, the more you will only find strong evidence on evolution.... Natural science museums would be a good start!

It's not an odd question. Here's a great article that lays out the strongest arguments why evolution is impossible:
http://www.icr.org/article/3140/
If you rule out evolution, you must face the fact that life began somehow, right? Creationism is really the only argument that makes sense.

Proof? ... Good luck. You are more likely to find evidence of ghosts or zombies than you are creationism. It is total unscientific BS.
