Claim 1: 'The Earth is Billions of years old'

The Earth is only Thousands of years old

Well the honest answer is ‘no’ and that’s an immense problem for evolutionists. In fact there is overwhelming evidence that actually points to an earth of around 10,000 years old, as the following chapters here will reveal. Just one of the many big problems for evolutionists, is that unless the Earth is accepted as being billions of years old, giving room for the vast amount of time required for genetic mutation, natural selection and modification, then the ‘theory’ remains nothing more than another religious belief system.

Bad Dates - Dating the earth from the evidence we can assess now is very difficult because we have no benchmark or experience to draw on. So a lot of it comes down to invented theories. It might surprise you to find out that evolutionists date the earth from a combination of techniques that have been proven to be unreliable even on objects of known dates (see topic: Carbon & Radiometric Dating) so much so that when something is dated using these techniques they assess the result to see if the date 'fits in' with their evolution model. If it doesn’t they will throw it out as a 'bad date', after all wouldn’t it be another nail in the coffin of evolution if they confirmed rock beneath a dinosaur was less than 10,000 years old? (see topic: Dinosaurs & Humans co-existed on the Earth )

So are there other ways of dating the Earth that are more reliable? One might well ask. The answer is ‘yes’, although there is a lot of denial in the camp of evolution, but scientists who are not blinkered by evolution have discovered methods & calculations that confirm that the earth cannot be millions of years old, in fact they suggest it is very young! The only reason that this information is not openly accepted is because 'This would not fit in with the theory of evolution'. So what are these other methods?

Unlike radio & carbon dating, these other methods don’t generally try to prove an actual date but rather establish an absolute maximum. Here’s a brief summary of a few of the methods with links to further reading.

The sea not salty enough - Salt is entering the sea faster than it is able to escape & even if you allow outrageous assumptions the sea would have a maximum age (not actual) of 62 million years. Much too young to allow the time required for the evolution theory. (see topic: Salt: Too little in the seas )
Helium in the atmosphere - Radioactive decay releases helium into the atmosphere, but not much is escaping. The total amount of helium in the atmosphere is only 1/2000th of that expected if the atmosphere were really billions of years old. The helium originally escaped from rocks & this happens quite fast yet so much helium is still in some rocks that have not had enough time for the helium to escape. (see topic : Helium: Too little in the atmosphere )
Decay of Earths Magnetic field - This decay is a world-wide process which has been accurately measured since 1835. The use of this data as an argument for a young earth has been developed and highly refined by Dr Thomas G Barnes, Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Texas (El Paso). (see topic: Earths Magnetic Field: Still too strong )
The Moon - The Moon is receding from the earth at approximately 4cm a year & this would have been greater in the past. If the moon had started in contact with the earth (which is impossible) that would give a maximum age (not actual) of 1.37 billion years. Far younger than the 4.6 billion evolutionists claim. (see topic: The Moon: Still here!)
Comets disintegrate too quickly - Comets are supposed to be the same age as the solar system, about 5 billion years. Each time a comet orbits close to the sun, it loses so much of its material that it could not survive much longer than about 100,000 years. Many comets have typical ages of 10,000 years (see topic: Comets: Too young)

Lack of erosion between rock layers - Rock layers that are supposedly separated by millions of years show little or no signs of erosion, or disturbance by worms, roots, etc. It’s also interesting to point out that there are fossils that traverse vertically through several of these layers! Surely no one would try & suggest a tree stood for millions of years without rotting. It would be logical to conclude that these layers didn’t take millions of years to form but instead they were formed rapidly over weeks or months because of a catastrophe like a global flood. (see topic: Global Flood – The main cause of fossil record)
Un-fossilized Dinosaur bones! - that’s right red blood cells & haemoglobin have been found in some un-fossilised dinosaur bones. These could not last more than a few thousand years, certainly not the millions of years that evolutionists claim ended the dinosaur reign. (see topic : Un-fossilised Dinosaur Bone )
