Adam and Eve...

[Merlin]

Yes but you don't believe Adam and Eve existed 3.9 billion years ago do you

I've never met an evolutionist who believed humans existed billions of years ago.

 

[Merlin]

Well no but if you're taking the bible literally wouldn't that put the start date of creation at about 10,000 years ago max?

Sam

No.
But a misunderstanding of what the Bible actually states can lead one to that conclusion.

I've never met an evolutionist who believed humans existed billions of years ago.

Firstly, I don't believe that, it's plain nonsense, I was saying that this applied to somebody else's post.

Secondly, why do you call me an evolutionist? I don't base my morals or belief system around evolution. I just accept it as a valid theory.

Remember, atheism IS NOT religion, by definition. To quote Richard Dawkins:

Calling atheism a religion is like calling bald a hair colour.

I suppose you could call me a scientist, that is where I get my model of how the world works from.
