And the rest of us that don't feel the bible is the be all and end all of knowledge should agree...why?
You could feel that the Bible says you can fly if you jummp off a bridge, and flap your arms real fast...don't expect us to reach a similar conclusion.
"The Bible indicates around 6000 years old."
No it doesn't, the Bible doesn't mention a figure for the age of the earth anywhere. You not only fail at science and logic, but also at knowing your religion.
The bible says no such thing, but even if it did it would prove nothing. This, after all, is the trusty tome which believes insects to have four legs, snakes to have vocal chords, and pi to equal 3 - amongst a heap of other crap.
If the bible did indicate that the earth was 6000 years old, that would be all the more reason to not believe it. Not that I ever read the useless thing, but from what other posters write on this forum it seems the "facts" which the bible actually gets right are in an overwhelming minority. If, indeed, there are any at all.
"Thats all I need to believe"
So you believe anything written in any book? Do you also believe in Allah, Ra, Zeus, Thor, and Harry Potter? There are books written about them, too. You accept the bible without any evidence whatsoever, yet you ignore all of the evidence showing the earth is old and evolution is a fact.
Why don't you require the same standard of evidence for your bible that you claim doesn't exist for evolution?
“The Bible indicates around 6000 years old. Thats all I need to believe the Earth is around 6000 years old.”
Confused?
