      They have to believe forces like erosion and tectonic mountains happen quickly to pack Earth’s history into 7,000 years. Not joking. At all.

      What’s really funny is that no one believed the Earth was that young until recently. It’s like The Rapture™ and cherubic angels, totally made up, non-Biblical, hasn’t been around for even 200 years. We’re talking about people who get Milton’s Paradise Lost and Dante’s Inferno mixed into their “ancient” belief structures.
