Subject: BS: Fifty-Five Men Laid End to End...
A thought that I have never heard expressed has to do with the "6000" years that *some* people believe that this earth has existed.

In the Bible at least five people/men lived at least 800 years each, consecutively.

So that alone is approximately 4000 years.

Taking the figure of 70 years for each lifetime, that leaves 2000 years to be divvied up amongst approximately 55 men. Right?

Do fundamentalists/literalists really believe that? Heck, even I have the memory of three men. Only 53 others accounts for the rest of the time?
