→‎Old Earth: It is atheistic
Line 176: Line 176:  
*If an atheist says the sky is blue, those agreeing with him are also atheists?  Ergo, just because most atheists are thought to believe in an Earth older than 6,000 or so years, that makes it an "atheistic thought"?  Poppycock!  What kind of ideology-driven, non logic is that?  You are not backing down to atheists by re-stating that clearly, and taking away the pious, insults leveled at the majority of Christians.  --<font color="#1E90FF" face="Comic Sans MS">[[User:TK|şyŝoρ-₮K]]</font><sup><font color="DC143C">[[User_Talk:TK|/Ṣρёаќǃ]]</font></sup> 18:43, 23 November 2007 (EST)

:(Repeating some of Andy's post which I wrote before I had an edit conflict with him, then TK.)  I don't think anyone said that believing in an old earth makes one an atheist.  If they did, I would disagree with them.

:However, there ''is'' something inherently atheistic about belief in an old Earth and moon when the Bible ''clearly'' teaches that the whole of creation is "young" (i.e. around 6,000 years old).  Christians who believe in an old creation do so because of non-biblical reasons, i.e. reasons promoted by atheists (or because they trust other Christians who believe such).  See [[Old Earth Creationism]] for evidence of this.
