Now you have classified everyone who entertains the proven old earth science as all unbelieving leftist agnostics? No possible way any of these folks could be on the other side of the fence and just accepting some rational logic? Everyone not in your fanatical bubble of faith?

This is a self righteous extremist elitist point of view based on 1600’s style fanaticism... It reminds me of when the “Constitution” party once proclaimed that it absolutely defended the 1st amendment “freedom of religion” just as long as it was “one of the accepted sects of Christianity”.

proven old earth science

Who said anything about that?

Come back when you unconfuse your mind.

This is the guy responsible for all the 'new earth' crap. I don't know why people insist on polluting my religion with this BS.

James Ussher

"James Ussher (or Usher; 4 January 1581 – 21 March 1656) was the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland between 1625 and 1656. He was a prolific scholar and church leader, who today is most famous for his identification of the genuine letters of the church father, Ignatius, and for his chronology that sought to establish the time and date of the creation as "the entrance of the night preceding the 23rd day of October... the year before Christ 4004"; that is, around 6 pm on 22 October 4004 BC, per the proleptic Julian calendar. "

He made it up.

I've had good intentioned people tell me 'it's in the Bible.'

BS!!
