To really be a scientist these days, one must throw away the garbage being preached in colleges and schools, if they want the truth. I am a student of
Geology that is my major, I am a sophmore working on a doctorate and also a Christian as well.
In this place in existence we have yet to experience the likes of natural phenemenon such as a super eruption. If a super eruption were to occur at
the same time as other volcanic systems are waking up. Then there would most likely be an event of superfast plate tectonics.
Furthermore, there would be great storms that would be capable of droping miles of ice at the poles very quickly.
The earth is getting bigger, I see meteorites burn out in the atmosphere all the time and all of that is added the the mass of the earth.
Subduction and plate tectonics does not mean an old earth at all; just because we are in a calm state here on earth presently, does not mean that is
the way it always moves.
Then we get to the subject of space and time and why there appears to be so much of it; well one must never forget that spacetime can be compressed,
dialated, folded, unfolded, and even looped. This literally means that age dates cannot be determined because spacetime is maleable.
As far as radioactive dating is concerned, that is just a bunch of stupid guys using radioactive contamination as a measuring stick. They are using
some of the most unstable, and most reactive elements to measure time....
Just wait till I finish College I will drop a more acurate mathmatical scale describing the properties of Earth and cosmos. Until then you can argue
about it, but when I drop this there will be no arguing.
