The assumption is that Genesis 1:2 occurred immediately after verse 1. But that's like reading a summary of Abe Lincoln which says "Lincoln was born in Kentucky and became our 16th president" and assuming he took office as an infant. |

Ted Nougat User ID: 1531479 United States 02/16/2013 06:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Several have spouted off as though they actually had something to say, but no one has even answered your question? The 6000 year old Universe/Creation is based on the work of Bishop James Ussher, tracing the geneologies recorded in Genesis - which tells how long many of the patriarchs lived. The date he came up with 4004 B.C. No intelligent person needs to believe in Darwinian Gradualism. It's a ridiculous, fantastic claim. |

I really think that there are more important matters at hand rather than if we believe ther Earth is only 6 thousand years old are not. I believe GOD feels the same. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10937925 They don't,it isn't doctrine. Its something that someone named Bishop Usher calculated centuries ago and is not supported by anything else other than word of mouth. Ex. Catholic Church doesn't give a time frame for the days of the six days days of creation nor does it deny the possibility of intelligent life on other worlds. |

Genesis is the doctrine on the timeline. Bishop Ussher was kind enough to add up the ages from all the genealogies. If you dont like him the Jews had very similar dates. |
