Who said anything about gloating about burning in Hell? I just said it doesn’t end well. Either you will go to Heaven or you will go to Hell. In either case, I’m sure God is going to want to know why you disbelieved His Word. What will you say? Scientists told you different? The same scientists who change their mind about what the story actually IS every 15 minutes? The evidence was in your favor? Sorry, the evidence for design and creation is everywhere. God Himself put it there for you and per Romans 1 will judge you as without excuse if you choose to believe something other than what He told You to begin with.
I never said I didn’t believe in creation. I don’t think the world is 10,000 years old, and I don’t think the Bible is literal truth.
You can have the last word, as this can just go on forever.

John 5:39
So if we are to believe the world is only 5,000 and some years old then your GOD is a trickster and liar. Personally my God’s time is his and has no relation to human time.
There was also an indication from one of you that your God is not smart enough to have invented evolution. You might keep an eye out for lightning bolts! In my not so humble opinion the two theories, evolution and creation fit together and support each other rather nicely.
And last, an over inflated ego is, I’m pretty sure, not viewed with approbation by GOD.
Absolutely.
Science is about looking at the evidence, and figuring out how it happened. (we still have a long way to go). The pattern we find is not random.
Faith is in loving God because he made the Earth, not how, or when.
Besides, the time of existence of the Earth is not specified in the Bible, but is inferred from various books, various verses, and variable calendars. Saying that someone's interpretation of the meaning of various verses is GOD'S WORD, seems to be a bit mis-representative.
