112. Perky didn't say she believed the Earth is 6,000 years old her post.

Where did you get that all Christians believe that?

I'm a Christian and I don't. That "belief," btw, is a relatively new one amongst the rightie Christian crowd. I went to both Baptist and Catholic churches when I was growing up and not one of them said the Earth was only 6,000 years old.

In fact, I was taught that the whole "God created the world in seven days" was a parable: that surely we knew the Earth was older than that and what is a day to God could be millions of years to a human.
