And here was me thinking it was a long way down the road to the chemist.

For what it's worth: this is why most modern religions consider young-Earth creationism to be blasphemous.

Young-Earth creationism says that the universe exists on a human-comprehensible scale. Which suggests that God is on a human-comprehensible scale.

But, see, if there is anything that could be considered a God, It's got to be on a scale that can encompass, y'know, THAT. 13,700,000,000 years or so seems a lot more plausible than 6000 or whatever. If I'm going to bother to believe in a God, It BETTER be one that is impressive enough to cover, y'know, THAT. And believing in a God that only manages to be the size of 6000 years and one planet? What's the point?

Affirmative. There is no reason to believe in a god like omnipotent being that is on such a short scale , whilst the universe as such is vast boarding on infinite.
