I do believe the things in the Bible actually happened, all of them
So, you think that this:
Quote:
When Adam had lived for one hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his likeness, according to his image, and named him Seth.
The days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years; and he had other sons and daughters. 5Thus all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.
When Seth had lived for one hundred and five years, he became the father of Enosh. 7Seth lived after the birth of Enosh for eight hundred and seven years, and had other sons and daughters. 8Thus all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died.

Really happened? That some people, 6000 years ago, lived for 900 years?
Though, you know what, I really don't mind. I couldn't care less what you believe in, not because you don't matter, but because you're not running for the US Presidency. Or for any post that requires a basic understanding and acceptance of science.
People can have crazy beliefs, we all have them, and that's great, it makes people more intresting. It's like that old thread where Joph was asking what we would say to someone who really believed in Greek mythology.
My only gripe comes when people who run for office let superstition trump science. That's all.
