: No one said that, Dan.  But it is indisputable that [[atheists]] promote, and promote heavily, a theory of an old earth.  And it's obvious why they do so:  it leads many students, though obviously not all, away from [[faith]] and political views consistent with [[faith]].  Show me 100 teenagers who believe the earth is over 10 billion years old, and I'll show you 90 teenagers growing up to be [[atheists]].--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 18:38, 23 November 2007 (EST)

*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. You have now switched the time-frame from a billion to ten billion years, without explaining that.  --<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.
