I think that Bishop Usher who came up with the 6006 BCE date--from adding up all the dates of begetting and dying in the Bible---said the Moment of Creation was on October 13, a Tuesday, at 2:30 PM. I am not sure whether this is on the Julian Calendar or Gregorian Calendar.
It is interesting that the good bishop never looked at Hindu or Buddhist chronologies. And he was totally ignorant of Maya and Inca chronologies. And in all the bishop's life, he never once heard about "radioactive decay" or even the periodic table of the elements, much less the understanding of sperm, ova, DNA, genetics, or germs.
Witch doctors do not have a good record in setting broken bones without X-rays; bishops do not have a good record in estimating the age of the earth.
That's 4004 BC. Does the fact you added an "E" reveal any bias?
You are exactly right.
On the other hand, the Public Schools, Courts, politicians, and Darwin apologists are not exactly what I would consider to be open minded about rational criticisms either.
I've read about Darwin. He was compelled to publish because others were coming to similar conclusions. He needed to be the first one to undermine traditional teachings. Perfectly understandable if you have an ego the size of infinity.
Actually, he may have been a good guy, but others in his wake, are guilty of an educational tsunami, and are clearly unrepentant. Of course the real egotists were persons such as Pasteur, who by the way actually did something with his intellect.
But what now? Debate gets thrown over to Huitzilopochtl or other blood thirsty icons? Where is the sense in that?
They curtail freedom of speech or a denial of rational debate at the point of a gun with even the most logically evasive politically appointed jurist even so much as nuances a disapproval.
It is unAmerican, and it is plain and simply willful ignorance. Ignorance which the public education frauds are determined to impose on posterity, by hook or crook.
The draft dodging tenured professors at our nations universities are even more despicable with their tactics.
But as I recently posted elsewhere...I'm just some guy.
