Its more than just believing in God. Its believing in Biblical Literalism and the "Begat Math".

My favorite quote from the Young Earth creationism wikipedia page is, "the percentage of believers decreases as the level of education increases."

I could never understand why people think a day to God is 24 hours. For all we know a day could be a billion years.

Over 10K.
The only way to think it's less is to misread the Bible, or read too much into its genealogy.

LOL If you believe "you can't argue with facts," perhaps you have not been around a long time. These days, everybody is entitled to his own facts. Pick any controversy, and you'll see: global warming, gun control, right to life, tastes great/less filling, no I did not say you're fat, etc, etc, etc.
