Because they have to play the Reds on Opening Day 2013 and they know they are going to get destroyed.

Most of the time we share our bodies harmoniously with the 90 trillion or so microbes.

So think about it, we are a planet or even a universe in the eyes of those microbes. That is if they are even aware of such things which is highly highly highly doubtful. Then think of the world population and how many total microbes.

90,000,000,000,000 microbes in one body x 7,060,288,692 current world population = 635,425,982,280,000,000,000,000 total microbes.

Maybe we are some microbes inside some other much larger living organism and we perceive it as our universe. Maybe our planet is really some cell inside another organism. If that is the case we are probably a virus because we destroy everything in our path.

Sounds like the speech Donald Sutherland, playing a professor I believe, gave in that movie where he was getting stoned with some of his students.

considering the amount of DNA involved in my first sin, this is probably a good reference point for carbon dating the earth.

it only takes 50 years for a cat to become a fossil..I went to a class in answers in genesis..fossils do not have to be millions of years..besides to much of a gap in the million year fossil theory.

Its always a good idea to base knowledge on a parable.

few more years of the internet and we'll be up to our ears in cat fossils.

If you live to be roughly 75 years old, it would still take you 60 million lifetimes to see a timeframe that long.

What are some things that blow your mind about this planet of ours and it's age?

Go visit the The Creation Museum in Northern Kentucky. Talk about things blowing your mind away.

I would if I needed a laugh, but I refuse to pay admission and fund their myth.
