Hello, I am a new user here.
I was having a conversation with an old Earth creationist (on Youtube) and this is what he wrote:
----------------------------
The Bible doesn't say anything ab't the age of the earth. A poster made the same claim. I pointed to Gen. 1:9 (where God separates the water and dry land appears) and noted that in order for it to make sense the water and land had to have already been here. He replied, "I never saw that!" I believe him.
----------------------------
I was telling him that according to the Bible, the age of the Universe/Earth is about 6000 y.
I don't know which atheist he talked to but it sounds like that atheist has not read the Bible.
I am an atheist.
What he writes doesn't make sense to me. Does it make sense to you?
I fully agree with him that the Earth, water, heaven already existed @ line Genesis 1:9. That is something that happens on day 3.
I will also invite him to these forums so that he may explain to us his POV.
