Where does the belief that the Earth is relatively young (6000 years) come from? @Jonathon Byrd: Unsourced claims are much more likely to launch debates. |

Where does the belief that the Earth is relatively young (6000 years) come from? I think this should be reworded. Right now it comes off as a bit preachy. This site is supposed to answer factual questions about christianity, not to address whether or not these are true. It would be better to describe this objectively. Many of the "scientific" claims here are not widely accepted by the scientific community. They should not be stated as fact. However it's fine to state that these views are generally accepted by young earth creationists, as that is likely a fact. Also, some sources would be nice. |

Are Dinosaurs mentioned in the Bible? Does not this simply state that its tail sways like a cedar sways in the wind? What justification is there for stating that this is referring to its size and not its movement? |

Abraham tries to sacrifice his son. Is exploiting a human a moral behaviour? @wax eagle: Thanks for the clarification. |

Abraham tries to sacrifice his son. Is exploiting a human a moral behaviour? What does that mean? That God can make exceptions? Or that now that the moral law has been specified, this is no longer moral? In short: If a modern Christian is convinced that God has ordered him to sacrifice his son, should he do it? |

Abraham tries to sacrifice his son. Is exploiting a human a moral behaviour? But Abraham did not know that this was a test. Does this mean that it's moral to do something that would otherwise be immoral, if God told you to? I think this is the main point of the question. |

answered | Atheism is the default position. Isn't the burden of proof on the Christian to assert that God exists? |
