[net.religion] Archbishop Ussher; general principle for entries

CSvax:Pucc-H:aeq@pur-ee.UUCP (08/25/83)

Assuming the play "Inherit the Wind" quotes the archbishop correctly and
that I am remembering it correctly (I was in it nearly 2 years ago), the
earth was created on Sunday, October 23, at 9:00 a.m.  The question, of
course, was asked:  Is that Eastern Time, or Mountain Time, or what?

Also, a general principle that people on both sides of the issues might do
well to adopt is the following gem I heard from a wise minister friend of
mine:

"A Bible text out of context is pretext."
