Questions about Evolutionism vs. Creationsim

[GUBU]

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?
 

1) Each day lasted from sunup to sundown, that is how the jews of c. 500 BCE understood the length of a day to be.
2) Approx 4.5bn years, based on an overwhelming amount of evidence in support of such a figure.
3) Yes, for the same reasons as 2)
4) No, Adam in Gen. 2 was both a biological impossibility and flat out contradicted the creation myth (untrue also) in Gen. 1.

Let me guess, you're going to start spouting creatard bullshit at me, right? If so hold your breath, firstly as part of the reality based community I'll disregard the shit you're trying to drag in (except to point and laugh at you), secondly as part of the reality based community, unlike you, I've actually read up on this so have a general grasp of what is behind the ideas you're laughingly trying to disprove, and thirdly if you hold your breath long enough you'll increase humanity's sum total of intelligence.
