god made the earth in how many days? abraham lived to be how many years old? beleive what you wish.remeber the holy bible was translated and interpeted many many times.
1 day could have been 1000 years or 1,000,000 years . the thing is you should not question god,just have faith. im not saying goto church and become a fanatic.and i dont think he is either.
i think he gave us this life and the bible as an example of what we can and can not do or try not to do. once you know these things you live your life.when you feel you need guidance goto church see a priest or preacher or just pray.

and to me being saved is actually accepting him and doing your best to live right and do right to others. there are many rituals related to this.the end of the world is when you die,this will be judgement day.and for the living look to revalations and dont take it literally. but hey this is just my take on the subject. the holy spirit is real god is real christ is real after all they are one in the same.
