Half of you would get agitated if some guy stood up in your church and declared that the earth isn't 6,000 years old and evolution is real. But sure, go off.

Funny that you equate Palestinian human rights with a nonsensical theory that is not even supported by most churches, including the main ones, Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican.

It is now, in 2020 when it's so thoroughly proven that any church knows they will look foolish if they seriously try to argue for a young earth, or that evolution isn't real. But the actual scripture hasn't changed, and until recent history you could find plenty of religious orgs that were very seriously trying to support the creationism theory, and then when that was losing ground it was dressed up as Intelligent Design so they could try to get it taught in schools.

Hell, when I was in the military I met a guy whose schoolteacher in Florida told him that dinosaur fossils were put there by god to test our faith. He'd be about 35 now so he would have learned this in the late 90s or early 2000s. Sure, now in 2020 it's not as widely taught as it once was. But there are absolutely still Christians that are taught it, and you can find users on this site, such as u/ christnmusicreleases, that actively believe in it.
