Methuselah did 969 years and didn't do a damn thing worthwhile. A baby who lives for five minutes but makes his parents smile with happiness does more in that very short time than Methuselah ever did in his alleged 969 years.
But what evidence do you have which indicates that Methuselah did not live to be 969 of our years?
