Didn't you say it was only 7,000?

The religious wack jobs say the earth is only 6,000 years old, so the dinosaurs had to have lived not very long ago indeed. There is even some evidence that the last of the dinosaurs were driven west from the Eastern US when the colonial settlers started moving inland. The Mormons pushed them the rest of the way.
The rings of Saturn have nothing to so with anything, unless a fly-by of a NASA satellite shows a skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus Rex floating amist the debris.

I’m a religious Ron Paul supporter. And Ron Paul is technically a Republican so I suppose I’m qualified to answer...
First, what does the rings on Saturn have to do with religious Republicans? Maybe you are posting in the wrong category? And since this type of information changes almost daily depending on whatever “new data” shows up who even cares?
Saturn is a beautiful object I love to spot in my telescope and that’s about it. I hope that answer will suffice.
But are your really asking?
Ok then. Genesis gives the universe a pre-existence before the seven days of creation try reading it from the beginning again. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth…… AND then the earth was formless and void….” Only mankind appeared on earth 10k ago and all the verifiable evidence proves this, it's a fact. The earth and universe could be in fact billions from a biblical standpoint since "in the beginning" is not specified at all.

Just to add a little salt to the wound you've opened:
The NASA equipment that made this little discovery was funded by Lockheed Martin... which is a privatized manufacturer of Military and space exploration equipment... and is traded/owned by supposedly "conservative Republicans".
Put that in your pipe and smoke it, fundies!

I'm not a Republican by any means....That being said I think religion is based on faith, which often clashes with science...
I tend to believe in both....(makes one bipolar after awhile)...

I never said that. Oh, and you're implying that religious Democrats don't read religious texts.
