About Michael O`Flaherty (Expert=8663)
Expertise
Did you know that the Bible does talk about the concept of the trinity? Did you know that Jesus did claim to be God, and that unless He washes you, you will not get into heaven? If you want a spirited debate about your beliefs in relation to the Bible, please ask. I will warn you; you might be challenged. Friendly debate only!

Question
Hi

Do Witnesses claim that the Earth is only around 6,000 years old?

Answer
Hi!

This is a good question. I don't know. I would definately ask a Witness. There is a blurb here about the age of the earth: http://www.watchtower.org/library/g/2002/6/8/article_01.htm.

I certainly don't believe the earth is that young. There is just way too much evidence to the contrary, especially the size of the universe and how fast and far light travels. God shows himself in the universe, and I don't believe some people who say that God made it look that way -- that would be deceiving.

God bless you!

In Jesus Name!
Michael
