That would assume that earth was created by God 40,000 years ago.. to which I say NOT -— the earth is only about 6,000 years old folks....

Are you attempting to incite debate or are you being sarcastic because the 6000yr theory is not funny and discredits many good Christians by making them look moronic.

Whether I believe the Earth was created billions or thousands of years ago has no affect on my salvation or relationship with God.

I don’t like folks shoving the 6000 year thing down my throat with such impudence. Makes them look foolish to be stuck on such an irrelevant issue.

According to the late Jimmy Ussher, its 6011th birthday is next October 23.

Of course, the folks who took the above photo were able to do it because they know better.

Thanks for your service!

How old do you think the universe is?

God makes things pretty interesting alright.

FROM AN EMAIL:

Some tourists in the Chicago Museum of Natural History are marveling at the dinosaur bones. One of them asks the guard, “Can you tell me how old the dinosaur bones are?”

The guard replies, “They are 3 million, four years, and six months old.”

“That’s an awfully exact number,” says the tourist. “How do you know their age so precisely?”

The guard answers, “Well, the dinosaur bones were three million years old when I started working here, and that was four and a half years ago.”

One of the questions it asks is, if Genesis is not accurate, then is any of the Bible reliable...and then proceeds to provide very interesting arguments for the Bible’s reliability.

How very arrogant of you supposing that God's time frame is the same as ours.

To God, a minute of his time could be 20 or even 60 million years of our time.

Just have to wait and ask him when we see him.

Blam posts interesting anthropolgy articles here so people can learn a thing or two. Do you have to pollute his threads with your garbage? You jsut make FR look like it’s run by a bunch of ignorant goons.

So you choose to come onto a thread, knowing full well from its title, that it speaks to a totally different worldview than your own, and feign offense.
