Since 'old earth' creationism requires a rejection of Genesis 1, I am curious to know what other portions of scripture so-called old earth creationists also reject.

Please let us not have any stuff about 'day-age', progressive creation, or evolution as the method. Those ( and all other homocentric ) systems require, by definition, that God's word be unreliable. What I want to know is this: How does someone claim to be a Christian while denying that Jesus Christ, God Almighty in the flesh, did what He says He did. Jesus made many references to the creation, and there is no greater authority since: "All things were made through (by) Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made".

So then, how does one rationalize away the direct words of Jesus in favor of the supposed wisdom of men?
