So here we have a comment from the typical atheist on a university campus these days:
"LOL. Dinosaurs existed, we have SCIENTIFIC (google that word) proof. Earth wasn't created in 6 days NOR as short a time ago as the MAN MADE and HUMAN INVENTED BIBLE wants you to believe! 6000 year old Earth LOL!!!!. Just accept, the Bible was written to stop people killing themselves back before they could handle the reality of life. I'm afraid you lack critical thinking skills if you genuinely think the Bible and organised religion is 'real.'"
The tragedy is, the Bible wasn’t written to “stop people killing themselves” out of ignorance.
It wasn’t “man-made” either — but what was man-made, is the Scofield Bible distortion that people like this atheist are actually reacting to.
In other words:
The Bible they hate isn’t even the real Bible.
It’s a 19th–20th century American cartoon version of it — born from ignorance, sold as Gospel truth, and shoved down the throats of generations who never learned Hebrew, never studied early Church writings, and never questioned the footnotes masquerading as doctrine.
Here’s what really happened:
When the Book of Genesis uses the Hebrew word “yom” (יוֹם) to describe the creation periods, it does not rigidly mean a 24-hour day.
“Yom” can mean a day — but also a season, epoch, or age — depending entirely on the context.
Even Augustine, one of Christianity’s greatest thinkers (writing 1,400 years before Darwin), warned that Genesis was never meant to be read like a literal 6-day chronological account — as if it were a modern historical timeline. He cautioned believers not to turn sacred scripture into a scientific embarrassment — and yet that’s exactly what Scofield’s camp did.
When Scofield and the early fundamentalists slammed “yom” into the rigid box of 6 × 24-hour periods around 120 years ago, they created a fragile theology — one that collapsed the moment it was tested.
They armed the atheists with the weapons to mock Christianity — and then left the battlefield.
Now we have generations of Christians, for over a century, who’ve been totally brainwashed by this Scofield blasphemy — unable to even defend a ridiculous notion that the Bible never asked them to defend in the first place.
And so, when a modern atheist fires shots like the comment above, here’s what’s really happening:
They’re not aiming at the Word of God.
They’re not challenging ancient truth.
They’re taking aim at:
A 20th-century American Sunday School pamphlet,
Mistranslations and theological gimmicks pushed by profit-driven or willfully ignorant men,
A false idol made of paper and ink — not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
And tragically, most modern Christians can’t tell the difference.
They were raised on Scofield milk and blasphemy — instead of Hebrew meat and truth.
They were never handed the sword — only the sheath.
They were never taught how to wrestle with scripture — only how to parrot dogma.
They were never even given the real thing.
The Bible doesn’t teach 6 literal 24-hour creation days.
Scofield did.
In Biblical Hebrew, the word "yom" (יוֹם) can even mean an epoch or eon — a long, indefinite period of time, especially in poetic or prophetic contexts.
The Bible doesn’t say the Earth is 6,000 years old.
It was Scofield’s system that forced that lie onto the text.
The Bible doesn’t crumble under scientific observation —
Only Scofield’s house of cards does.
Which, tragically, 70% of Western Christians now believe and blindly defend —
man-made, blasphemous notions planted in their minds by a drunk, convicted criminal who hijacked the pulpit with a pen.
They’re not defending the Word of God.
They’re defending Scofield’s heresy — and they don’t even know it.
