Mike McCabe writes (emphasis added):

Sykes has something in common with much of his audience. Those who hang on his every word want to be lied to. They don't want to believe in evolution. They want to believe the earth is really 6,000 years old, despite the preponderance of scientific evidence showing they are a few billion years off.

Um...did Charlie say that?

See, I don't remember him ever saying that. But I was gone last week so I couldn't listen, and...

...if he said it, I missed it, which means I've been thinking wrong ever since then. But if he didn't say it, then I'm thinking the right way. So, could somebody clear this up for me? I need direction!
