Post YEC and the Sabbath Millennium

So, if we believe YEC, then the world began in 4004 BC. Now, since "a thousand years is like a day in His eyes," shouldn't God be taking this millennium off? So, any theists here, there's no need to pray: God won't check his messages until long after you're dead.

Funny, but you are confusin YEC with OEC. 'thousand year day' is an old earther argument. 'year 4004' is a young earth argument.

Sorry to ruin your joke with reality, but we upper forum types don't appreciate humor.

no, he is right. it has been six thousand years, which to Gawd is six days, according to that silly quote. so it is yec.

not the literalist YEC that Ken ham and whatnot expouse. To Mr Pigleg, a day is a day.
