If you Google young earth creationism you'll see there are a lot of people who believe the earth is just thousands of years old.

Allegorical interpretation was how the early Christian church viewed scripture. The Young-Earth view is a recent fad, relatively speaking.

Are you saying the early Christians believed the earth was millions of years old?

Most of then didn't give a shite and even if they did, so what?

It is only since the twentieth century that the age of the earth became topic number one for a sub-set within Christianity.

The stupidest thing I ever heard said was when Savannah Guthrie compared Trump's swear-in right hand being held upright to a Nazi salute.

The right hand salute is what you have to do when you are being sworn in for any legal proceeding.

Are these idiots saying this country has been giving the Nazi salute for hundreds of years?

The 6000 years comes from early Christians trying to date the geneaology within a literal timeline.

Who?


quote:

The age of the earth is one of the most contentious issues in the creation/evolution debate. In today’s culture, the thought of creation occurring about 6,000 years ago is frequently mocked by non-Christians—and also by many Christians.


quote:

James Ussher (1581-1656), the famous and respected Archbishop of Ireland in the seventeenth century, is today greatly ridiculed for declaring that the world was created in 4004 BC.


quote:

In preparing this work, Ussher first made the assumption that the Bible is the only reliable source of chronological information for the time periods covered therein. In fact, before the Persian Empire (approximately the sixth to third centuries BC) very little is known from any source about Greek, Roman and Egyptian history or the history of other nations; much rests on speculation and myths. Dates in secular history become more certain with the founding of the Medo-Persian Empire.


quote:

For events before this time, Ussher relied solely on data from the Bible to erect his historical framework. He chose the death of King Nebuchadnezzar as a reliable date upon which to anchor all the earlier biblical dates. Working meticulously backward from there, he ended up with his date for creation of October 23, 4004 BC.

Wife called me out to the back yard one night because there was a snake on the patio. I walk out see it is copperhead and go to the garage to grab a shovel. The snake curls up and is striking but I am well outside of the its striking range. I proceed to remove his head from his body, but apparently my wife was unaware that snakes keep moving after they are dead. She freaks out and jumps up on the patio furniture and looks me straight in the eyes and asks, "is his head going to reattach to his body since he still moving." I honestly was flabbergasted and just shook my head. I informed her that the snake would probably still be moving for a couple of hours and that the snake could still bite, but he isn't a transformer so no he cannot reattach his head. My wife has a masters degree, but sometimes she lacks common sense.

A guy told us once that the reason he likes eating at Buffalo Wild Wings is because it isn't fattening because it's chicken.

Agree with some of the posters: the dumbest and most frustrating thing has got to be talking to a Creationist, they refute all the scientific evidences based on their interpretation of the Bible.

addendum:

Oh yeah...

Organic foods are much healthier than normal foods.

Monsanto's GMO foods are poisoning the world's entire population.

Depending on the rest of his diet, he might be right.

When my twins were about 2 by a random lady at the mall...

Her - Are they related?
Me- Yes mamm. They are twins.
Her- They can't be twins. One is a boy and one is a girl.

A high school coach golfing buddy told me a new gym was going to be built at his school. At at a board meeting people were making suggestions.

One guy said he thought they should have a physics lab. People looked at him funny and he said, you know, where they lift those weights.

It's not that difficult to make your kids breakfast, then go grab the vacuum and vacuum the house in 5-10 minutes while they eat.

If you aren't lazy, you clean your dishes after you eat and put them in the dishwasher. when you get home from work and the dishes need to be unloaded, you unload them.

After you put your kids to bed and you and the wife sit down to watch something stupid on tv, fold the clothes while you watch, unless your too lazy to.

When the garbage needs to be taken out, take it out and walk your lazy arse to the garbage can outside. I pick up the bathroom garbages while my kids bathe.

Instead of taking 30 minutes to take a shite while you play on your iphone, blow the shite out your arse, wipe yourself and be done with it in less than 5 minutes. take 30 seconds to scrub the toilet with some comet. Before you sit down to shite, put some comet in the tub too, hell even the sinks. Take 30 seconds to scrub each down and rinse it. You just shite, cleaned the toilet, sinks and tub in less than 10 minutes, and didn't waste life sitting on a toilet playing on your phone.

Clean up after yourself lazy arse.

Paying for someone to clean your house or cut your grass, if you're not old or handicap, is lazy. Don't give me the excuse that you don't have time b/c you're busy all weekend. You're not busy, you're lazy. If you want to pay for it b/c you don't want to do it, that's fine. Your money, do what you want. But don't tell me you don't have time to do it. It's not that difficult to do when we are talking about a normal 2000 sq ft house that sits on a quarter acre of land.

Admittedly parts of my family are racist. Being born and raised in the LP will do that to you. At a family gathering after hearing the N-word dropped one too many times in a derogatory fashion. I asked politely for them to stop. This starting a yelling and screaming match I wasn't prepared for. In the middle of the argument my aunt leaned to me and said this.

"I don't believe in mixing races. They aren't like us. You know a black person can't give blood to a white person."

I don't think I picked my jaw up from the ground for ten minutes.
