Richard ~~ Remember Philip Gosse, whose son Edward Gosse wrote the famous turn of C19-20 memoir of their relationship "Father & Son". He was a Plymouth Brother and zoologist, who sincerely postulated the age of the world as about 6,000 years, and explained ancient fossils as having been placed there by God at the Creation for the express purpose of tempting the unrighteous to blasphemy.
