At least according to Charles Johnson, the scientific brainiac who vomited up this bilge.

"I'm endorsing Rand Paul because he's a true conservative who will stand up to the Washington establishment. Rand has been running on the issues that matter since the beginning of this campaign. He's a strong advocate for balanced budgets, he wants to end the culture of earmarks, he supports term limits, and he's 100% pro-life. Rand is exactly the kind of leader Americans are looking for right now. He's not a career politician and he's got the guts to stand up to the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are being forced on us in Washington. ~~ Senator Jim DeMint, chairman of the Senate Conservatives Fund
Rand Paul is endorsed by:
“because his world view matches the creationist world view in every respect.”
Yes, worldviews work that way. When you start from one base assumption or the other, you end up “matching” the conclusions of others on most issues who make the same base assumptions.
One of those base assumptions is “Imageo Dei” vs “Imageo Goo”.
Does it really matter if Paul thinks the Earth was made 6000 year ago or 4.5 billion years ago?
After all, when was “in the beginning”? Can anyone prove it beyond a doubt or does the answer require some faith in the unseen and unknown?
Creationists don’t know how old the world is, either.
Some might believe this or that, but they don’t know.

That one is easy: God dictated/wrote Genesis, so the 'days of creation' were His days (however long that happened to be) -- not 'man's days' (one rotation of this insignificant, created ball of mud). To claim anything else is the utmost in sinful hubris.
To quote a prominent FReeper.
"Man is not the measure of God".
(Note: The above theological statement has zero to do with Darwin or his 'theory' .)
I can see that the writer is completely unbiased in his evaluation of Rand Paul’s position.
Yeah,
right...
The writer ASSumes a lot......
So are you saying he's too ashamed to admit it?
How old is the earth? I can’t anwser that. I know it’s older than I am because it was here when I arrived.
Perhaps we can saw it in half and count the rings!
I can’t tell what the article is trying to say.
The attack on Rand Paul adequately points out that he must be what we need, or why would they attack?
One rarely sees the wackos getting attacked; I guess that’s cuz only wackos do the attacking.
.
Solomon counseled against arguing with fools.
Creationists are the lowest IQ fools on the planet.
“Rand Paul Wont Say How Old the Earth Is.”
How is he supposed to know how many billions of years old the earth happens to be?
So, was the author of the prissy hit piece there?
In my lifetime, the age of he earth has morphed from a few million years to BILLIONS of years. That’s three orders of magnitude of change in just, what, 60 years.
And NONE of these people who make these claims were there at the creation of the Earth, so they don’t really know.
All they are doing is INTEPRETING DATA, usually heavily filtered by their biases.
