Ah, but the Bible tells us that the earth isn't that old.
Other names for great floods are the Chicxulub impact, the Younger Impact events, both rearrange things significantly but the former was a doozy. However people remember the second one.
No, the Bible does NOT tell us the age of the earth in any way, shape or form.
“A day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years like a day.” Does that sound familiar?
We have no concept of the length of time G_d took to create life on earth, nor any concept of how long He directed further life changes before our arrival.
In fact, time itself did not exist in any form until WE humans imagined it into existence, since there was no way for it to be experienced by sentients like ourselves.
“Ah, but the Bible tells us that the earth isn’t that old.”
Which verse or verses!
sorry but as a practicing Christian I know the Bible does not tell us how old the earth is. Interpretations of the peoples births and deaths in Genesis indicates what we assume to be the age of the earth. But nowhere does the Bible tell us that the earth is XXX number of years old. Therefore I will withhold judgment.
The Bible is a book of faith and life, not a scientific textbook and should not be treated as one. In my humble opinion
