For one of my college classes, I need to interview various people regarding their beliefs for creationism or evolution. I would very much appreciate whatever answer you can give me!
These are the questions:
1) How long were the days of Genesis 1 and why do you think so?
2) How old is the earth and why do you think so?
3) Do humans and apes share common ancestors and why do you think so?
4) Was Adam of Genesis 2 a real historical person and why do you think so?
Thank you so much for your time!

1. The days were as long as the man made fantasy needs them to be and let's people continue believing in creationism. I'm sure that they started out as 24 hours but something tells me that apologists might have extended that.
2. Depends on what you mean earth. Proto earth, habitable earth, humans on earth,..... I'll go with the numbers that science has discovered. This covers most of it for me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Earth
3. Again, I'll go with what genetic science tells me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_evol...y_genetics
4. We are back to the man made fantasy, so as far as "real", no.
god, any gods, are the product of mans mind.
If you need a god to feel good about yourself, go for it. Just don't try to drag me with you.
You're welcome.
Feel to come back and chat in other threads or make your own (introduction, hint-hint).
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
