i mean i know about creationists and the whole dino bones (or any "evidence" the earth might just be really damn old) were planted by satan to test the faithful stuff, but this is a bit beyond.

no, it's just people referring to Earth Day as "earth's birthday," and celebrating the 400th Earth Day, and combining the two without thinking about what that implies

The Moon is all like "How come there isn't a Moon Day, eh? Maybe I'll just go orbit some other planet and see how you like having NO TIDES"

i mean even the most extreme 'young earth' biblical theories estimate the age of the planet at 6000 years at a minimum

Norton was engaged to Courtney Love, so any irrational act he indulges in after that doesn't seem so extreme in comparison.
