He's not. The Gas taxes are lower because of him.
I agree Titan it was funny. And to Amaterasu, if you don't care then you don't need to worry about our leaders. By the way still waiting on the Mark and the Economy to fall.
Biblically yes, 7 does have a special meaning. It's called 7 days, and like I said, possibly 7 parts of God. But no, God didn't "Pull strings" To make it happen because God is God why not just do it in 7 days and start our first week system? He's the man I say if he said he did it in 7, why believe he lied? It's really strange. I actually did not know so many people had bought into the God's a liar who used Evolution theory.
Lot's of numbers have Biblical secrets. 12, 7, 3, 666, 40 to name a few.
it's not
lying, it's a metaphor

God Said 7 days. Why would he waste his time? When he made the Israelites lost in the desert for 40 years it wasn't a metaphor. Nor when he flooded the Earth was it a metaphor. God doesn't use metaphors with the things he does. If he says it, he means it. He Poured out 12 plagues on the Egyptians, no Metaphor.
Etc. There are tons of instances when he says things, but I have yet to see it be a metaphor. With something as tremendously important as the Creation of Earth why would he lie? Besides, Science says the Earth is between 15 and 8 thousand years old.
I'm gonna have to ask here Q, and don't take it as a personal slight to you or your God, but where is this Science saying that the Earth is only between 15 and 8 thousand years old? Everything I've seen, read, and researched on the subject says that it's believed to be in the billions, (Approximately 4.5 billion of those things called years.)
Take a slight? Sado my friend, it's a debate, that's what we are here to do. Discuss. I can tell you that you probably are not looking in the right places, if everything you've seen and read says 4.5 billion years, since I have seen hundreds of writings against this belief.
I will stay away from the Fossil Record, though strong evidence, you asked specifically for the creation of the Earth and that is what I will restrain myself too. For starters, there is a decrease that has been observed in our atmosphere of today. There is indeed, a magnetic change in the atmosphere, with a 7% decay. When we work backwards against this decay, it is clearly visible that the atmosphere can be no more then 15000 years old and still be able to support life with what we have. This includes geomagnetic reversals and similar phenemon. Another example is the neutron stars. They emit large amounts of radiation and even recently our galaxy was invaded by a large amount of Gamma rays from one of these stars. They are called Magnetars. The one that we felt these rays from, has at most 10,000 years left of gamma ray emissions, and this is felt to be the same with most Magnetars. So their is a problem, if most Magnetars run out at around the same time, they must have also formed around the same time, and since they dissipate huge amounts of these rays it is safe to say that they themselves are incredibly young otherwise they should have long burned out.
Another example is creation. According to Baryon's number, it says that to create something from energy (Which is what the Big Bang Proposes) That an equal amount of Matter and Antimatter must be concieved. However, in our universe Matter greatly overwhelms and practically swallows out the anti matter counterpart. This does not bode well for the Big Bang, because if it was supposed to be created equally and there is no known reason not for it, this thus goes to say that something is desperately wrong with that model. The biggest "Detriment" To creation is supposed Radioisotope dating which says that half lives, which have only been measured for a hundred years, support the belief that the universe has to be years old. However creationists have raised points that if Potassium or argon were present before when the elements were created (the elements being the sediments these rocks are found in) Then the age could very well be supported as 15,000 years.
This is just a handful of evidences that the Earth cannot be logically 4.5 Billion years.
