It's statements like these that BLATANTLY reject common GLOBAL knowledge that makes your folk the laughing stock - how can you REALLY think some1 is going to listen to you when you are basically rejecting the moon and the oceans? LOL.

SO WHAT if every person on the planet hasn't personally experimented w/ the age of the Earth --- the bottom line is there is an answer that's "more right" than all of the others. Furthermore, no1 is making the extraordinary claim that scientists are their Personal Lord and Savior or their Personal Scientists. Extraordinary claims REQUIRE extraordinary evidence to support it --- something that the religious community has never been able to produce in large quantity --- DEFINITELY not large enuff quantity to swear your life and bank account by it.
So it's by word of mouth. Guess what the bible is considered? Just because you're told by someone, or read it, what makes one more credible than the other? My answer is because I know who God is, and I know his "writing" when I read it. What's your excuse?

Can you not admit it makes you at least somewhat hypocritical?

As for what has God done for me, My wife has had trouble finding a job ever since she graduated from college. after some actions and prayer (actions as in her tithing what little she had) she now has 4 different job offers within a week. Again, you'll right this off as "chance" just like evolution, but when all of the "Chance" continues happening in a way that everything turns out right, at what point do you say there might be something to it?
I speak with my God everyday, and he speaks back. Audible voice? No, however he shows me through experiences and "my heart" which is another term used for the Holy Spirit. I know you don't understand this, because you haven't experienced it. so what do you want me to say?

Just as your brother told you about 400 feet under the Ocean, i'm telling you about God and my Lord. The funny thing is we have the choice as to what we want to believe, and I was just stating how I find it ironic and hypocritical the way Christians are blasted by non-Christians when they have less proof of "science" than we do. Can I prove God? No more than you can prove the wind. I just happen to believe in both.
