WOLF BLITZER: But — but — (applause) — I think the specific question — the specific question is do you believe literally it was done in six days and it occurred 6,000 years ago?
KURT EVANS: Much of the astronomical evidence appears to indicate periods of time greater than the roughly 6000 years the Bible seems to allow since the beginning of creation, but I think it's important to remember that if the original positions of the stars placed the earth near the center of a deep interstellar gravity well, then according to Einstein's general theory of relativity, the effects of gravitational time dilation could very easily have caused billions of years to elapse in other parts of the universe while only a few hours elapsed at the surface of the earth.
And I'll save you the trouble of asking your next question, Wolf, by saying I believe that surface is approximately spherical and not flat.
Not elected?
Mike Huckabee spreads that word by reason and not by fire and brimstone, and thus the animus against him by the far left and a faction on FR.
Today he said: “That’s an irrelevant question to ask me - I’m happy to answer what I believe, but what I believe is not what’s going to be taught in 50 different states,” Huckabee said. “Education is a state function. The more state it is, and the less federal it is, the better off we are.”
I hope that doesn’t burst his RINO bubble.
The Huckster is going to be on the defensive more than he likes....now that he is a contender.
Lousy editing on the part of this reporter. When referring to God, "He" should be capitalized. Otherwise, it looks like a Democrat wrote the scrip. Just my opinion.
Huckabee, however, is an abomination.
Governor Huckabee says humans are unique creations of God (June 5)
WOW! That’s a hugh and series statement....for a Baptist minister....
Maybe not.
That question served no other purpose than to try to turn others against Huckabee on the grounds of his religious beliefs.
I’m not a fan of Huckabee. At all. But this type of questioning is only they type of questioning aimed at Republicans and is, in my humble opinion, out of line.
It has predominantly been aimed at Romney to this point. If Huckabee were nominated, I’d expect it to majorly increase in volume with him, as well.
““In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth.” To me it’s pretty simple, a person either believes that God created this process or believes that it was an accident and that it just happened all on its own.”
I’m sure if God did all that, He could quite easily have created an evolutionary process that led to the human race as well.

The evidence is that billions of years passed here on earth.
I think Huck knows the focus of this repeated line of questioning is being used to build a foundation upon which to paint him as a religios kook down the road. “We don’t need another theocracy, blah, blah blah.”
This line of questioning will increase Huckabee’s support.
Oh yea, God is pro open borders.
When I was on the prolife platform and somebody asked "... but when does human life begin?" I'd answer:
"There's a great deal of honest controversy about that. Some would say that it was with the emergence of anthropoid apes perhaps one million, seven-hundred-thousand years ago; others hold that Neanderthals were not our direct ancestors, but rather that they split off from the human tree more than 300,000 years ago.
"However there is no controversy ovr the fact that human life is transmitted to a new generation every time a human sperm fertilizes a human ovum."
