 == Mayan date correllation with Young Earth Theory == 

 I just stumbled upon this subject because it was in the "This date in history" section.  
 After reading that "August 11, 3114 BCE marks the Creation of the world of human beings according to the Maya",  
 I couldn't help but notice that this date corresponds closely to adherants of the Young Earth Theory.  
 (The belief among mostly fundamentalists christians that the Earth is approximately 6000 years old)  
 However, I didn't see anything about that in the article.  Surely, I'm not the first to notcie this. 
 Is there any information on the correllation between these two topics?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by   •    

 "Is there any information on the correllation[sic] between these two topics?" No, they have nothing to do with each other. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_Usher. Please read the whole Long Count article. I predict that if you edit the article to mention young earth creationism that your edit will be reverted in approximately one nano-second.   Senor Cuete 

 I had no intention of editing the article.  Why would you assume that?  Also, I did read the whole article and the date just reminded me of an article I read on Young Earth Theory.  I read Wikipedia every day, but this was the first time I ever wrote anything in the discussion page.  Is everyone usually this rude in the discussion section?
