Richard Dawkins Says He Despises Young Earth Creationists - AiG reports on a statement Dawkins made that says he despises YEC's who won't look at the evidence. As a Christian, I do not despise YEC's, but I would rather say the frustrate me, and they embarrass the church as a whole. But, they remain in my prayers that they would come to understand God's creation, free of the bondage of YEC.

Sharks and Rays - Article disputes the evolutionary claim that they came from a common ancestor.
Evolutionists on the Bible - The author explains that many times evolutionists have tried to explain the Bible with varying results. True, not all proposed explanations have been valid, but in reality, you can explain the Bible within an evolutionary framework. He concludes by insulting evolutionary creationists... "And so evolutionists’ beliefs have strongly influenced the manner in which sometimes insecure Christians have interpreted Genesis."
Institute for Creation Research
New Fossil Dubbed 'Platypus Dinosaur' - Reports on a new dinosaur species, and implies it was created by God in a YEC framework, but does not dispute any of the science behind its find and dating with alternative scientific data.

BioLogos just completed a three-part review of the book Genesis: History, Fiction, or Neither? It takes three opposing views and compares them, and sounds like it would be a good read. Here are links to the three parts of the review:
Is Genesis 1-11 a Collection of Myths? (Part 1)
Was Genesis 1-11 Intended to Reflect Accurate History? - Part 2, Note: OEM believes you can integrate evolution with a literal, historical Genesis.
Does the Truth of Genesis 1-11 Depend on its Historical Accuracy? - Part 3. At OEM, we believe it does. If it's not historically accurate, then its not truth.
