They did take the Genesis story literally up until the 19th century

==Yes, I agree. I would say that most likely that the majority of the people were Bible literalists, up until the 19 th century. The science of the 19 th century gave scientists clues as to the age of the Earth but I doubt that this spread in every school, from elementary and up in the 19 th century.
It’s probably after nuclear weapons were developed that the general public took notice of what a physicist does.
I have heard that the cold war between the USA and Soviet Russia helped in giving science education more importance. It became very important to learn about the atom, to learn about nuclear power, radioactivity, biology and evolutionary biology, etc.
For the 19 th century, data collection about various species gave clues that creatures change over time. The fossil record/layering and geology gave more clues. The temperature of the internals of the Earth gave more clues.
Without clues, without evidence, without data, what reason would anyone (jew, christian, muslim, mormon) have to think that the Earth is in the millions of years old?
What does their religion tell them? Where does it say that the Earth is billions of years old? No where.
Your video, why don’t you send it to Belacqua? He seems to disagree with these statements and keeps talking about Augustine.
