He should have just said, "I don't know but estimates range from 6,000 to 6,000,000,000 years".

[Ken H]

Awful answer. He should have gone 'Gingrich' on him and called him out. Failing that, he should have said what he believes. If he thinks it's thousands of years old, then say so. If he thinks it's billions of years old, just say it.

He did the worst possible thing. He weaseled his answer, and then he sorta took the reporter to task.

[Gene Eric]

>> Awful answer.

Nonsense.

RE: everybody knows the answer is 4.5 billion years +/-

Maybe you should ask the folks at The Institute for Creation Research

“Augustine: The Literal Meaning of Genesis”

The Bible is NOT a science text book. I’m a Christian and I have no problem with the current scientific estimate of the age of the Universe and Earth.

It’s not even that they pretend to understand science,
they just use it as a weapon, JUST AS MARX DID.

As for the age of the earth,
when that experiment can be repeated, let me know.

[teflon9]

A lot of people believe in chemtrails, bigfoot and “man made global warming” too. Science education in the Fruited Plain isn’t what it’s cracked up to be.
