Check out the Creation Museum in Kentucky (naturally) for their non-scientific beliefs that even show modern looking "Garden of Eden" people romping with dinosaurs. Maybe it was Fred Flintstone and Dino?
I have strong Christian friends of mine, who, when I said it was warmer 500,000 years ago than now (as we were discussing the hoax of "global warming" in today's environment), were incredulous and quickly explained to me that the earth was only somewhere between 8 and 10,000 years old. When I brought up the science of carbon dating they said that they chose to believe what was in the Bible. We simply agreed to disagree. Other than that they are both very involved people and "normal" in all other seeming ways, so one's belief can indeed be a strange bed partner. While they know what is right for them, I know what is right for me.
