Scaramucci's WikiPedia page.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Scaramucci

From your own link....

As a member of President-elect Donald Trump's Presidential Transition Team Executive Committee, Scaramucci defended efforts by the transition team to identify members of the United States Department of Energy (DOE) who participated in climate change research and or negotiations. Scaramucci went on to state that the history of our planet is 5,500 years and that scientists who support the hypothesis that humans are impacting climate are analogous to those who said the earth was flat.[32] Scaramucci then went on to correct himself by saying "human history.

​

So I guess the guy is a liar now. According to you he didn't say that. So why did he correct himself if he didn't say it?

You cannot explain why he said 5500 years and not what creationists would claim (6,000 to 10,000 years).

You can only look at a fragment of the entire discussion that went on and parse one sentence out of context, eh?

There's not a shred of evidence that he's even religious at all.

His WikiPedia page talks about his charitable donations and nothing to any religious organization or church or anything.

The reason 5500 years matters is that there's no way to document there was any science or wrong claims before that.

“Look, I know that the current president believes that human beings are affecting the climate. There are scientists that believe that that's not happening,” Scaramucci began, before Cuomo interrupted him.

“The overwhelming consensus in the scientific community is that man's actions have an impact on science,” Cuomo said. “You have to correct that whenever it comes out. Go ahead.”

“Chris, there was an overwhelming science that the Earth was flat,” Scaramucci responded. “And there was an overwhelming science that we were the center of the world.”

Scaramucci presumably was referencing the theory of geocentrism, which held that the Earth was the center of the universe. Copernicus disproved that theory in the 16th century.

...

“I’m saying people have gotten things wrong throughout the 5,500-year history of our planet.”

...

“Some of the stuff that you're reading and some of the stuff I'm reading is very ideologically-based about the climate. We don't want it to be that way,” he said.

This is what you just posted.

I heard him live. He was talking about the age of civilization, not the age of the planet.

I don't trust the transcript to be 100% accurate.

I heard what I heard.

You heard what you heard. So why did he issue a correction if he didn't say that?

You're posting a transcript now?!?

I don't trust the transcript to be 100% accurate.

 

[Denny Crane]

Knowing that civilization is 5500 years old is an indication the guy isn't at all clueless.

[PtldPlatypus]

To get away from the creationism red herring, isn't it a bit disingenuous of Cuomo to intimate that if one doesn't believe in man-made climate change, one doesn't care about the environment at all?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

“I’m saying people have gotten things wrong throughout the 5,500-year history of our planet.”

You just said you watched it live, he didn't say that and you don't trust a transcript with him saying that.

I don't trust the transcript to be 100% accurate.

And now you're quoting it.


So, lets review...

I post part of a transcript, you say that's not accurate, he didn't say that.

You post part of the EXACT SAME transcript. Now it is suddenly accurate.

So what exactly did you hear?

Fits you like a glove.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

personal insult

 

[SlyPokerDog]

You're making shit up.

I'm quoting you.

You said you heard the interview and you don't trust the transcript.

I don't trust the transcript to be 100% accurate.

Then you start quoting the exact same transcript.

[Sedatedfork]

So this guy goes to the doctor and says, hey doc, I have got five penises. Is that unusual? The doctor says, well let me take a look. "Yes indeed. In my 40 year medical history I have never seen this condition. The patient says, you would think this is maybe a blessing, but it's awful. It's horrible to urinate. And, sex is rather unusual. And the doctor says, yeah I can't even believe you can wear pants with that. The patient, says oh, no, that's fine. These pants fit like a glove.

 

[Denny Crane]

I'm quoting you.

You said you heard the interview and you don't trust the transcript.




Then you start quoting the exact same transcript.

I don't trust a bit of the transcript taken out of context.

Again, I saw the thing live. The man was badgered by a partisan hack journalist who had a gotcha agenda the whole time. The man wasn't reading off of cue cards or a prepared speech.

In no way did he come across as a creationist. In no way.

In no way.

 

[Denny Crane]

I do mean the "deliberately ignore or disregard important information or facts" part.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

In no way did he come across as a creationist. In no way.

well, other than saying the earth is 5500 years old.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I don't trust a bit of the transcript taken out of context.

Then why post it?

 

[Denny Crane]

well, other than saying the earth is 5500 years old.

That's not something a creationist would say.

Get it?

fantastic.

sly, i told your teddy bears on the wall joke the other day, good stuff.

 

[Denny Crane]

Then why post it?

I posted the whole context.

The part you want to deliberately ignore.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

That's not something a creationist would say.

creationists say the darnedest things.

 

[Denny Crane]

creationists say the darnedest things.

Yeah, like the earth is 6000 years old.

(Not 5500 years old)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Earth_creationism

The common belief of Young Earth Creationists is that the Earth and life were created in six 24-hour periods,[65] 10,000–6,000 years ago. However, there are different approaches to how this is possible given the geological evidence for much longer timescales. The Science Education Resource Center at Carleton College has identified two major types of YEC belief systems:[65]

• Believers in flood geology attach great importance to the biblical story of Noah's Flood in explaining the fossil record and geological strata. Major American YEC organizations such as the Institute for Creation Research and Answers in Genesis support this approach with detailed argumentation and references to scientific evidence, though often framed with pseudoscientific misconceptions.[65]
• A less-visible form of YEC not seen as often on the internet is one which claims that there has been essentially no development of the Universe, Earth, or life whatsoever since creation — that creation has been in a steady state since the beginning without major changes. According to Ronald Numbers this belief, which does not necessarily try to explain scientific evidence through appeal to a global flood, has not been promoted as much as the former example given.[66] Such YECs believe that fossils are not real and that major extinctions never occurred, so dinosaurs, trilobites, and other examples of extinct organisms found in the fossil record would have to either be hoaxes or simply secular lies, promoted perhaps by the devil.[65][67]
