    Hello.

    This is offtopic but:

    I am not a Catholic/Christian and do not follow the regigion of Christianity but I must take you up on your post.

    "Then again the catholic religion suggested that the earth only existed for 6,000 years. I guess there is a line, in both situations, between provable fact and opinion"

    If they suggested, let them suggest. What proof is there otherwise? There is only the suggestion of physics... is it not equally plausible the world spontaneously existed 6000 years ago as the big bang spontaneously occured however long ago, or any other opinion.

    We are only what we think we are... the world around us does not exist in a way other than our perception of it, and there can be no proof other than belief in yourself. Even your memory is in the past, it can change... maybe you didn't exist 5 minutes ago and have had memories implanted?
