I can’t explain it. I think that’s why our relationship with God is based on faith.

Look at the field of science. Has there ever been some massive errors in scientific beliefs?

Of course there has. The earth isn’t flat. The universe doesn’t revolve around the earth. Even today there are some theories that everyone doesn’t accept.

Will the age of the universe be revised downward in time? I don’t know.

What I believe is that one day I’ll get to ask my redeemer to explain things to me face to face.

I don’t believe that Moses wrote the first few books of the Bible to mislead future generations.

He was chosen by God to deliver the Children of Israel out of Egypt.

Against all odds, he, one man, was blessed by God and achieved his assigned task.

I have faith.

What?! Because you can't explain it?! Because you haven't studied (and understood) genetics and astrophysics, you reject the painstakingly documented evidence and logical conclusions of geneticists and astrophysicists - conclusions which are constantly being validated (though also sometimes modified) by new discoveries every month?

Because, to you, everything seems so confusing and complicated, you choose to completely abandon scientific reasoning and resort to non-evidence-based "faith" in the theological posturings of Bronze Age tribespeople?

What a shame!
