How would a Christian theocracy punish geologists for their country narrative on the Earth's age?

I believe you're operating under the presupposition that "young earth creationism" is a principle component of belief in the divinity of Jesus Christ. It is not.

Furthermore, in some circles of christian thought it would be more common to find individuals agreeing with most of the precepts of the "big bang theory", although with slight alterations concerning the stimulus that caused the "big bang" event to occur.
This is commonly referred to as "Intelligent design".

Maybe an enlightened theocracy would find a way to synthesize scientific evidence and research with theological reasoning and religious revelation.
Parker Walker
Hegelian dialectic sythesis style?
Chase Phillips
Well, I was raised to be an atheist and to view all religion through the lense of secularism, and to view science with the highest regard. I understand why my father feels this way, but to me, the atrocities of atheist nations in the 20th century has proved to me that when science and technology outpaces man's moral and spiritual development, it can have really ugly consequences.
Dylan King
I'm inclined to agree. We're all on a path towards something, more often than not it's a path of our own choosing. Christian thought places an intense value on an individual persons life, and anyone that guides themselves with concern for other's wellbeing has a healthy path to follow.
Samuel Young
Even the Pope believes in evolution, so if this theoretical theocracy was Catholic, which is the most likely sect, they would do nothing to scientists.

When you live in Christ, you see that Christ lives in your heart, and you can recognize that spark of divinity in every other living person. Then things like genocide and forced human experimentation become unthinkable.

God loves humans as the scripture reveals, despite our unworthiness of his love.

You're an imbecile.
What you said doesn't even make sense.

God must love fags, otherwise He would not make so many of them. Jesus never said a word about fags. He just said that people who are kind to others go to Heaven. (Matthew 25)
Cooper Sullivan
doesn't scripture say he tried to drown us all and then had second thoughts.

The story of Noah belongs to a genre of literature called "Prose", and shouldn't be understood as a narrative. Early cultures frequently would create mythologies to explain natural phenomena, and the earth wide flood story in Genesis comes from an early culture that experienced an extreme flooding event and naturally explained it by means of a God's wrath scenario. Much like thunder being ascribed to Thor, and so on so forth.
Ian Jones
There are many times when humans are almost wiped out by God's wrath but he's dissuaded at the last minute.
Exodus 32
7 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go down, because your people, whom you brought up out of Egypt, have become corrupt. 8 They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them and have made themselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf. They have bowed down to it and sacrificed to it and have said, ‘These are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.’
9 “I have seen these people,” the Lord said to Moses, “and they are a stiff-necked people. 10 Now leave me alone so that my anger may burn against them and that I may destroy them. Then I will make you into a great nation.”
11 But Moses sought the favor of the Lord his God. “Lord,” he said, “why should your anger burn against your people, whom you brought out of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand? 12 Why should the Egyptians say, ‘It was with evil intent that he brought them out, to kill them in the mountains and to wipe them off the face of the earth’? Turn from your fierce anger; relent and do not bring disaster on your people. 13 Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Israel, to whom you swore by your own self: ‘I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and I will give your descendants all this land I promised them, and it will be their inheritance forever.’” 14 Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened.

I see you're labouring under the delusion that there is a preternatural disposition to homosexuality, and that this disposition is given by god.
In my opinion there is no reason to assume that God is absolutely in control of all aspects of our world. Certainly not for the sake of making humans mentally I'll, and driving them to damage themselves.
William Richardson
Second temple Judeism is no different from any of the other semetic religions of the area.
Jesus of Nazareth is where things really get interesting, because his teachings were unlike anything that had come before it. He changed the game entirely.
