On Tuesday's episode of the "700 Club," Pat Robertson fielded a question from a viewer named Scott who wanted his take on the debate between "old earth" and "young earth" creationists.

Scott's question read:

...how can we conceive that there were millions of years between Adam and Noah, and millions of years between Noah and Abraham, and more millions between Abraham and Moses and King David and Daniel and the Apostle Paul. And now, 2000 years later, here we are. Please explain further.

Robertson, who has publicly feuded with young earth creationist Ken Ham, answered, "You have to deaf, dumb and blind to think that this Earth that we live in only has 6,000 years of existence."

He goes on to discuss geological history and the interpretation of the length of a day in the six days of creation in Genesis.

"To deny the clear record that's there before us makes us look silly," Roberson summed up.
