Young Entrepreneur Council (YEC) is an invite-only organization comprised of the world's most promising young entrepreneurs.
Variations on the phrase appeared in YEC publications: a 1967 book co-written by Percival Davis referred to "design according to which basic organisms were created."
Young Earth creationists (YEC) promoted creation science as "an alternative scientific explanation of the world in which we live."
Decades ago, I wanted to think that what holders of YEC and related views really needed was a much better education in modern biology, and then we would be on our way to better understanding.
Issues of genre aside (even some YEC, it seems to me, have sophisticated discussions about matters of genre, and are quite up on the arguments, as best I can tell).
