Video: Arizona is 6000 years old?
Ian O’Neill at Astroengine posted this stunning bit of video featuring Arizona State Senator Sylvia Allen.
It’s not that she says the Earth is 6000 years old — twice, just to make sure — that floors me. It’s the casual way she said it, as if she said “I had a cup of coffee today.” From her manner, it’s clear that not only does she believe this complete and utter nonsense, but this is a simple fact woven into her mind just like the Sun is bright or chocolate is tasty.
To her, the Earth being 6000 years old just is.
