Wait. So I’m driving my Prius all for nothing?

No. That was the point. I do not pretend/claim to know if he has one or not. Hence the mystery of faith.

Likewise I never stated you did either. But based on your horrific sentence structure it could easily be easily misconstrued that way.

Just over 6,000 years.

I'm pretty sure God does not. A plan is series of steps to achieve a future goal. It's generally accepted that God is beyond space-time. This would follow logically due to God being the creator of space-time.
There is no future for an entity beyond space-time. That entity would experience everything that has happened, and will happen, everywhere - simultaneously. No need for a "plan". There's really no need for "intelligence" either. Neither does God wait, or even change for that matter.
It's also how God can be everywhere at the same time.

We need to speed that timeline up. This place outlived it’s usefulness a long time ago.

6,000+.

4.5 billion. Story of Genesis starts a few thousand years ago. The two are not necessarily one or the other if you want to believe in the Bible and have common sense when it comes to science.

I have great idea! We can just cut it in half and count the rings!

Yep. Not sure why it's so controversial. There is no contradiction at all.

Old, as in real screamin' old
Posted on 2/8/22 at 6:34 pm to texag7
4.54 billion years old.

Threads like this make me wish TulaneLSU was still here.

God provided for the genealogy all the way back to Adam; where’s the hubris in adding up those lifetimes?
Never looked at those ages too closely, eh?

There is absolutely a contradiction. The Bible teaches the consequences of sin is death. Before Adam sinned, there was no death. If there was millions of years of animals dying through the evolutionary process before Adam sinned, then the central message of the Bible is without meaning.
Thinking that the Bible and evolution/millions of years is at all compatible betrays a significant misunderstanding or ignorance of the Bible.

Or you’re taking it way too literally

So what’s Greta’s plan to stop this?

Or maybe, just maybe, Adam was the first man with a soul and every “man” before him was basically an animal.

They taught me at The Creation Museum that the Earth is a little over 6,000 years old. I also learned that children played with dinosaurs.

Bolded part isn't true. Earth formed after the sun. The sun needed to spark to life and the solar wind had to push out all the water to the snow line, which allowed the rocky inner solar system to come together as planets. Not to mention there were millions of years where planets where colliding and reforming before earth as we know it now existed.
All you people are fricking morons

How old is the Earth? Scientists think that the Earth is 4.54 billion years old. Coincidentally, this is the same age as the rest of the planets in the Solar System, as well as the Sun. Of course, it’s not a coincidence; the Sun and the planets all formed together from a diffuse cloud of hydrogen billions of years ago.
