View Full Version : I'm Exhausted

I have never been more tired in my life. Two kids, homeschool, responsibilities...

Well, on top of usual stuff, I have a brother at church who continues to cause me strife. See, I am an old earth creationist, he a young earth creationist. He is an elder and my husband is an elder. He has called my husband a "compromiser" and a "believer in a doctrine of Satan."

After a meeting and much discussion, the Pastor has made sure that this brother minds his manners.

Well...my pastor is moving and is going to pastor another church (he is leaving in good standing--nothing is weird or anything). Our young earth brother has wasted no time in once again stirring up the pot among the elders. Fortunately I think they see how totally extreeme he is.

Anyway, I am just plain tired. I used to have energy to fight this continual battle but now I just want to sleep, and cry.

I know what you mean.

I followed young earth creationists for a long time, then I realized that their evaluation of the piety of others on this basis was over the top.

Even if those who don't hold to a young earth creation are "compromisers" it's not nearly the compromise that YEC's make in christian unity on this issue.
