Keeping with that thought, According to the bible we are approaching the 6000 year delta of the date of creation. God created all things in 6 days and on the 7th He rested.
2 Peter 3:8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+peter+3%3A8&version=NIV
6 days of creation = 6 thousand years. 1 day of rest = Revelation 20. Satan is locked away for 1000 years to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%2020&version=NIV Just something to consider.
Six days of creation and 1 day of rest = 7 thousand years
Please,...no.
The age of the earth is not in dispute, it's 4.5 billion years.
Render unto science those things that are science.
-not in dispute -science
Pick one.
I knew as soon as I wrote it someone would do this :)
My statement is that the age of the earth is not currently in dispute. The science part of that is that it's still WIDE OPEN to being in dispute. If someone wants to challenge the carbon dating methodology that has been replicated countless times with the same result, it's OPEN to debate.
The non-science attitude would be to say "Nope, age of the earth is SETTLED at 4.5 billion years, and there is no possibility of questioning it, thanks to the CONSENSUS. So, no debate is possible." THAT would be bullshit.
All it would take is one scientist to challenge the carbon dating, bring the scientific proof, defend it, have his thing replicated by a number of other scientists...then we'll change and stop saying 4.5 billion years.
