How old is the earth?

[BillyBob]

Well, I guess it's settled. Three times as many posters believe that the Earth is relatively young, so I guess it must be so. Polls at TOL always reflect reality.

Hello to all,
FYI, you can hear Dr. Walt Brown on Bob Enyart Live, show #33, Feb. 16, 2004 discussing creaton and the global flood. Brown has a PhD in mechanical engineering from MIT. Also, I judge his creation and flood theories to best fit the evidence. Thanks, -Bob

 

[BillyBob]

So his theories reflect a 4.5 Billion year old Earth?

Thank you Bob, I'm sure some of the people here will listen to that show before twisting your statement around.

I judge this earth to be about 4.5 million years old. But I'm also under the opinion that God has destroyed this earth and recreated it for human life. So I judge the recreation of the earth for human life to be about 6,000 - 8,000 years old.

I'd suggest verifying rather than falsifying by looking for corraborating evidence.

Isn't it pretty well impossible to falsify a unique event, like creation?

One of the rare moments where I agree with Zakath! :thumb:

Maybe that explains why some days I feel older than dirt...

Dirt came first. Only your body made out of the dirt can 'feel' old.

Have any of you ever noticed that no matter how many years we live, we never change inside, in our inner being? We get more understanding [hopefully] but we do not change, or age, in our being.

Under 10,000...

over 10,000^2

It's hard to belief that 52.56% of you folks think Earth is under 10,000 years old.

I guess it is to be expected, when science takes a back seat to religion.

Believe it.

Christians tend to place more importance in the revelation of God than the speculation of man. And science doesn't take a backseat to religion with creationists -- it's riding shotgun.

A-ma-zing.

 

[allsmiles]

From the little I've been able to garner on the subject, the earth is far older than 10,000 years.

 

[TheDude]

Why do we need to put an age on the earth?

This site is over 50% Christian. Why is it hard to believe they'd vote under 10,000 years?
I voted around 4.5 Billion years, but thats only becuase "pretty damn old" wasnt an option. :chuckle:

It's your speculation that there is a God who has revealed things to man.

I would rather place more importance on speculations that are supported by evidence.
