Does ANYONE actually think the earth is 6000 years old?
please tell me that this is just a joke used to satirize the lack of intelligence of the lowest ring of society. Otherwise I am going to lose all hope

I guess I am creationist and well believe the Bible allows the earth to be millions of years old. Who know what happened between "In the beginning God created the heaven" and "now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters." Millions of years can be in between those two verses. Genesis says G-d crated the heavens (space) and the earth (underdeveloped unorganized empty earth ). The details I am not sure about because in Hebrew the order in which things are listed might not necessarily indicate the order in which they took place (I got this form a guy commenting on the Great Isaiah Scroll).



Theres creationist and Darwinisum.

No! i'm a born back Christian and have self assurance that the earth is a few the place around 5 billion years old. No the place does Scripture state the age of the earth yet we do comprehend that "interior the initiating..." Scripture does not state while that initiating became. As we examine further into the creation account, Scripture states "The earth became with out style and void..." observe here that the be conscious "became" easily reads "grew to grow to be" interior the unique writings subsequently it potential that the earth became at one time as all of us comprehend it today subsequently, something happened to the earth to render it a "shapeless mass and a lifeless planet" (with out style and void). apparently that the creation account as we've it today is the place the Lord easily renewed the earth and created guy.

Allowing for gaps in the genealogies would give a maximum age of around 10,000-20,000 years or so.The age of the earth is based upon unproven assumptions, so it is not proven that the earth is billions of years old. Some evolutionist have simply followed the pattern of others without checking the facts. People further their own views of what others thought. One person thinks this person thought that way. Simple as that. It's picked up by another writer, and soon, everyone believes it.......... and then wiki prints it.



Evolution can only make inferences about the past, it is not science. True science is operational. It involves repeated experiments that can be proven. so.... Instead of telling me stories about a time in the past about which you have no knowledge show me one complex system ever formed by random processes.



Many of the dating techniques that can be used to determine the age of the universe and the earth point to a maximum amount of time less than the billions of years required by naturalistic evolution. Galaxies wind themselves up much too fast to be billions of years old. There are too few visible supernova remnants. Comets disintegrate too rapidly and have no mechanism to reform. There is too little sediment on the sea floor to account for erosion and not enough sodium in the sea to account for billions of years. The earth’s magnetic field is decaying too rapidly. Rock layers are bent to extreme degrees, suggesting they folded rapidly while still soft. DNA and other biologic materials should decay and not be found in fossils—bacteria alleged to be 250 million years old should have no intact DNA left, yet they were able to grow.



Radioactive halos present in rocks show a time of rapid radioactive decay in the past. Too much helium resides in minerals that are supposed to be very old. Carbon-14 is found in diamonds and coal that are supposed to be millions or billions of years old. There are too few skeletons of Stone Age humans to support the alleged 200,000-year timespan. Agriculture and historical writings have been around for too short a period. In combination, this short list demonstrates that many dating methods defy the billions of years needed to support evolution’s house of cards.



only some DONT want to know the truth.

Over half the population of the US believes that, and believes in creationism. I only found out not long ago that there are so many americans that believe that. Truly amazing.

There are a few idiots who will believe anything. But in this case, just a few.
