The Earth is NOT that old! Why does everyone keep on saying its billions and millions of years old??? Its NOT!

Based on scientific data, experimentation, and research, the Earth is estimated to be about 5.5 billion years old.

" Why does everyone keep on saying its billions and millions of years old??? Its NOT!' Maybe everyone else understands the principles behind science, unlike you. If you do not think the Earth is that old, please present your data to that effect.

BTW, FWIW: the last dinosaurs went extinct about 60 million years ago, not 30.

Umm...well you can say im an idiot all you want but the Bible doesnt say that the Earth is millions of years old

What?

Anyways I believe a theory proposed in another thread, God created the Earth and knew evolution would create man but let it play out anyway, and thats my two cents.

The Shroud Of Turin has been proven to be a fake on a number of occasions.

I TOLD YOU!!!

its a fake it couldve been any man sheesh every think of that??

Yet it's still being debated as to whether the dating process had major flaws in it. For example, the popular belief has always been that Jesus had nails driven through his hands on the cross, it has been proven now-a-days though, that this could not support a persons weight, and it would have to be through the wrist, and that is exactly what it shows on the Shroud of Turin, despite popular belief. Also, one of the stains shows what appears to be a nail bent outward, I don't remember the Scientist's name, I can post it later, but he tested driving a nail through a wrist, and when it hit the bone, it bent in exactly the same manner. Just something to think about.

The Earth isn�t millions of years old, it is billions of years old.

The bible is not meant to be a literal history, rather it is a collection of allegorical stories. I realize that that somewhere, somehow, you have been taught to believe that the bible is a perfect history of the world, but unfortunately it is not true.

Even the bible has been subject to numerous edits and rewrites throughout its history.

Furthermore, it does not explain, nor can it reconcile the facts that scientific research has uncovered regarding the natural history of the Earth.

If you intend to argue that the scientists are wrong, you have to show just how they are wrong.

Personally I tend not to put much credence to the scientific validity of stories handed down from anyone who was unable to understand the physical mechanisms behind simple physical phenomena like the formation of a rainbow.

On the other hand, if you look at biblical stories as allegories of morality and behavior, then, yes, they have value. But, is the bible description of the natural history of the world? No, not really.

Umm...They had like 13 in. nails and they crossed his legs and drove a nail through them too.

The Earth isn�t millions of years old, it is billions of years old.

Yes it is. It has been proven through scientific method. I know blind faith in a book might work for some but, most people want proof. Without using the Bible, can you prove to me that the Earth is not billions of years old? I doubt it.

He hasn't had his nap so, he's kinda cranky.

[sarcasm]What are you all talking about, the bible might not be true? [/sarcasm]

[Edited on 2-29-2004 by AF1]

I wasn't gonna post on this one, but AD got me all riled up.

People like AD believe in the bible because it is the word of god.

These same people, like AD, believe in God because the bible says so.

I believe in swordfish. (

Dinosaurs could never have existed. Why you ask? Earth is only 7000 years old, how can creatures have lived before this time ?

Deep

AD, I had to restrain myself from laughing at you.
