GIDEON BIBLE

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gideons_International My personal Gideon Bible, which I took from a motel room on Highway 66 in the St. Louis area in the late 1960s, records a creation date of 4004 BC, in the month of October. It even gives a particular date and time of creation with exactitude. I treasure this book; having read it cover to cover in the early 1980s. Needless to say Bishop Ussher's erroneous Biblical speculations , though held as sacrosanct by some for centuries, was discredited by science in the 20th century. The earth dates back over 4 billion years , life almost as long, and man almost 3,000,000 years in Africa. Information changes formulations.
