Ignorance and indoctrination. Especially back then people that don't understand science needed an excuse of why certain things worked that way in the world. Is easier to say that everything happens thanks to a big guy above us.

Right. Now we do smart, n know how we exist cuz science. Big bang long time ago now we here, no sign of design anywhere in this place amirite. Whenever in doubt of our scientific paradigm, try adding either millions of years or millions of miles to the equation to add plausibility

A young-earth creationist? You're a rare breed. Good to have you here.

On a more important note, responding to inflammatory language with strawmen and condescension isn't a good look. If YEC is true don't you think it'd be a lot more effective (and productive) to just give us reasons to believe what you believe?
