sorry this exceeds your analytic skills......the issue has never been about anything being beyond God's power.......beyond your comprehension perhaps......you asked me why I didn't believe in a young earth, I told you.......now tell me why you believe in a young earth....
Of course, I don't. What I am getting at is
why?.......there isn't really a reason to make that demand.....
just as everyone who attends Disney World obviously believes Micky Mouse lives?....
except no.....the poll you are referring to asks which interpretation of origin is closest to what you believe.......two of the three say that human beings evolved and were not created.....I myself would select the one that refers to man as being created within 10000 years as being closer to what I believe than saying man evolved.......thus, your assertion is demonstrably false.......
as an example, which of these are the closest to what you believe......man was created by God, man was shipped here by aliens from another galaxy, or man evolved probably within the last 100 years.....
Of course, I don't believe in a young earth, idiot.
Yes, there is a reason for the demand. There is no way Noah could have built a boat capable of carrying what is purported with stone age tools. It would have been tough with bronze age tools. Your only answer is magical powers.
It was probably pointless to ask a spineless coward like you to explain "how do you decide when to invoke magic?" No, you will just leave that out in response and pretend I was asking something else or claiming that the earth is young.
You have been lying about that poll for a decade now. You are a liar. YEC is still quite popular and there is no doubt that OEC are the newcomers.
Yes, it is difficult to really pinpoint what it is you morons believe because you idiots suffer from a lot of cognitive dissonance and you are not well educated on the subject matter. I mean, just look at the "Oh My God" thread where TapsOut constantly made a claim and then later disavowed the claim.
A deeper dive on the gallup polls...
http://www.livescience.com/46123-many-americans-creationists.html
Religion was positively tied to creationism beliefs, with more than two-thirds of those who attend weekly religious services espousing a belief in a young Earth, compared with just 23 percent of those who never go to church saying the same.
Just over a quarter of those with a college degree hold creationist beliefs, compared with 57 percent of people with such views who had at most a high-school education, the poll found.
Most of the people who believed in evolution also said they were knowledgeable about the theory, whereas those who said they were not too familiar with the theory also were less likely to believe in it.
Perhaps you are not meeting many YEC because you are not attending church? Obviously, those that do are getting a YEC message.

In 2009, Bishop ran a survey that clarifies how many people really think the earth is only 10,000 years old. In survey results published by Reports of NCSE, Bishop found that 18% agreed that “the earth is less than 10,000 years old.” But he also found that 39% agreed “God created the universe, the earth, the sun, moon, stars, plants, animals, and the first two people within the past 10,000 years.”
Like I said, it appears it seems to depend a lot on who you are talking to and what image you want to present. If you think the guy is getting at your understanding of science you will pretend to agree with those views supported by the science. If you think he is asking about your religion then you revert to YEC.
But the real point is this...

Creationists are poorly educated and they plugged their ears during the discussion of the toe, so they don't really know what they are talking about, what they believe or what they reject.
