@kellyjay saidWhere in the “creation story” does the age of the earth being 6000 years get mentioned?
If we attempt to change the words to make them mean whatever we want, they can say anything. God created it all from nothing, ex nihilo. He made all matter, time, energy, and space all at once; it was completely necessary. Without time when would it occur, without space, where would go, without energy by what power, without matter what just got created?
God transcends it all, because of this, nothing we do in the material world is going to answer all the questions.

Why are you asking Divvy?
@wolfgang59 saidYou need to read around the subject, read this thread, read KellyJay’s posts in this thread and elsewhere to inform yourself. Then you won’t have to ask stupid irrelevant questions which are primarily driven from your embarrassment and irritation that I’ve spotted you driving another poster off of the site by trolling them over their dead wife.

Meanwhile you can keep denying it, pretending it didn’t happen, and trolling me over my supposed alcoholism. I mean ... suppose I was an alcoholic, have you considered that?
You are one of the most unprincipled, vacuous and heartless people I’ve come across in my dozen or so years here. You should be ashamed to consider yourself an egalitarian or a socialist. You are neither.
@divegeester saidHow many threads will you hijack with this "dead wife" story?

@wolfgang59 saidHow many dim-shiit jazz-handed counter-measure questions are you going to flick across the table at me?

How many times are you going to troll me about alleged substance abuse?
How many times are you going to lie about what you did?
I’ll post as I see fit.

Edit; I respect this post by you for being the first truly honest comment you’ve made on this topic actually.

@divegeester saidTry AA.
my alcoholism it is distressing for me.

I wish you well.

@wolfgang59 saidBut you don’t wish me well though, do you. This is the thing with you Wolfgang59, your a fake carer, a virtue-signaller, a pretender.
I wish you well.
You hate my guts because I call you out on your pretentiousness and vindictive nature, as you demonstrated when you abused mister-moggy’s dead wife. He’s a human being Wolfie, a real person. You don’t like him, that’s ok, some people don’t like each other. It’s life.
But there are norms of decency and human compassion even in these forums, where you seem to struggle to maintain that thin veneer of being the socialist egalitarian intellectual who retired to his chosen NZ, snugged up behind that Trumpianesque wall of immigration control where you spend your wealth and throw rocks at the rest of us.
Don’t wish me well, I don’t need your well-wishes fake or otherwise.

@divegeester saidIt stems from a scripture (I paraphrase) "that day of God's time is as a thousand years" so on that basis 6 days to create the earth = 6,000 years.
Where in the “creation story” does the age of the earth being 6000 years get mentioned?
Having said that I have bumped into (cant find where right now) stuff that suggests that a "creative day" is 7,000 years, putting the creation at 42,000 years not 6,000.
@medullah saidI believe if you start adding the years' people were alive and events in scripture, it works out to about some total in the thousands. There are Biblical timeline charts; it should be easy to look up.
