Nothing about an old earth or evolution proves, tends to prove, or INTENDS to prove that there is no God. Nothing about an old earth or evolution is an attack on religion per se.

To frame the debate in those terms is ridiculous, stupid, and bordering (very narrowly bordering) on the insane.

To the extent that your holy books contradict observed reality, one of three things is true:

1) You do not understand your holy books.
2) Your holy books are wrong.
3) Both (1) and (2).

A prime example is those who (disregarding the sage advice of Augustine to inquire of astronomers about astronomy) insisted that Copernicus' theory on the motion of planets was "against scripture".

Don't follow their ridiculous example.

[Creationist]

Old earth is against scripture, the theory of old earth is adulterant to scripture and wrong.

Because man misinterprets the scripture does not make it wrong in any era.

You think to highly of mans knowledge, when man is one mistake after another.

You missed on the observations, 4 the Holy Bible is completely true, and man is so self absorbed that he wishes to do all the immoral acts without consequence to his soul so he either believes and follows God rules or he disbelieves and acts like an animal.
