Is the reason

I don't know when God first created man. I don't know the date God created trex. I don't know the date God created the universe. I don't know the date God created earth. The Bible doesn't give a date. Man gives a date. Man gives more than one date. Man gives the dates based on unprovable assumptions. Man may be right. Man may be wrong. I don't know.

Funny how you replaced "science" with "Man". And how you think the bible is a source of pre-historic and scientific knowledge. Why don't you go research the difference between a "theory" and a hypothesis in science. It's pathetic to see a fellow christian resort to such mealy-mouthed evasions so as not to face the question squarely as not whether the bible is true, but is his own interpretation and that of his denomination is true. This should be a matter of both intellectual and spiritual integrity.

I know this sounds harsh and I have been sarcastic in the past. But our Saviour said yes when He meant yes and no when He meant No, and never evaded except on purpose so as not to enlighten those with closed minds and hearts. Science is merely an explanation of how God's creation works, and there should be no conflict between true biblical interpretations and true science. If there is, especially when it would take a parlay for multiple scientific theories to be wrong in order to make your specific biblical interpretations right, then how can you persist in such interpretations when there are other christian denominations without such conflicts?

What are you talking about? You hate Protestants so much you seldom make any sense when talking to them.

Read my previous post again. I bet no one else here had trouble understanding it including non-believers. I don't hate protestants but only evasive and untruthful assertions to allow one to maintain a flawed biblical interpretation. Such assertions are maintaining that various scientific theories are less accurate than they really are, and saying "I don't know" just because the bible is not primarily a scientific and historical tract so you can mindlessly parrot an answer, instead of using your God-given intellect and God-given science to help arrive at a correct interpretation, instead of one your great-great-grandfather held.

Look at your post above about "Man" having certain answers that might be right or wrong, and about "unprovable" assumptions. My point is that it is YOU who need to be specific if you think there is evidence enough that certain scientific theories are wrong and not make vague artful dodger-esque statments so that the conflicts between your biblical interpretations and science not be made more manifest and thus their implications for your holding a specific interpretation forced to be dealt with.

My goal in life isn't to please you concerning what I believe or not about science. If you have something specific, go ahead.
