[P-Marlowe]

That's as silly as using the Bible to prove science false.

So are you admitting that it is silly for Science to try to show that the earth was not created in 6 days?

[D-fendr]

Yep, or that the earth is whatever age anyone infers from the Scripture. Science evaluates other science for validity, it's not qualified to take Scripture, deduce science from it, then test it scientifically. Whose deduction should they take, yours or mine? The error of deducing science from scripture can come from anyone. The use of science to then test the deduction merely compounds the error.
