I need help on Palin. Does anyone have a link about her saying the earth is only 5 - 7 K old?

I need to shut up a someone I work with.

Thanks

1. Link

Though at the end of the article, she says she's not "necessarily" still a young-earth creationist:

10. 'not necessarily'?? What, is she a middle aged earth creationist now??

How the FUCK can you 'not necessarily' be a young earth creationist. Either you are or you aren't. Jeez, that is hedging her bets, huh?

2. I think her young earth creationism is circumstantial...based on what church she goes too...

and who her pastor is.

I don't think we have a video of her exposing it herself.

Best you'll find is some lukewarm support of allowing creationism in schools for the sake of "debate".

9. Sounds like a great debate question

11. I'm not aware of any actual tape

or quote from a journalist in an interview. Just rumors of a guy who recalls a conversation he once had with her years ago.

I read that she did not even push creationism to be taught in schools. So I'm not sure where she stands on evolution and the age of the earth.
