Science Proves Earth Is Billions Of Years Old

Psalms 102:25, “Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.”

1st Timothy 6:20-21, “O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.”

“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.” —Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

The popular Young Earth Creation (YEC) theory is blatant false science! As a born-again Christian myself, I woke up at about age 35 (in 2002 when I started my website ministry). I learned to start thinking objectively for myself. That is, I started questioning everything that I had ever been taught in church by Baptist pastors. Boy, had I been hoodwinked!

I had been lied to by every Baptist pastor that the Holy Bible commands believers to tithe 10% to the church. Nothing makes a Baptist pastor blows his top than hearing someone say that tithing 10% is not found in the New Testament, because it threatens their comfortable income. Just go ask that devil for a pastor, Jeff Redlin, at Pensacola Christian College's (PCC) Campus Church, who gets paid a much undeserved 6-digit outrageous salary. Pastor Jeff Redlin is a coward and liar, who still refuses to accept my offer to reconcile and become friends. They are full of petty prejudices and misplaced egos at PCC. The cult system comes first, individual people like me don't matter. With this sad reality in mind, it shouldn't come as a surprise that PCC is doing their part to promote the Young Earth Creationism (YEC) fallacy.

The following article from the University of Notre Dame evidences the unscholarly willful ignorance, biased confirmation and foolishness of the Young Earth Creation (YEC) crowd...

The Use of Radiometric Dating

If the Earth is only 6,000 years old, why does radiometric dating techniques used by geologists suggest the age is around much older? Well, AIG answers this exact question by explaining that radiometric dating is based on erroneous assumptions and cannot be trusted. It proposes that when using radiometric dating, scientists make many assumptions and “build their interpretations on these assumptions.” One of these assumptions is the idea that the rate of decay for a given radioactive material is constant. 

AIG suggests that while it seems constant to us, this is a massive extrapolation of data to assume that the rate would have been constant back at the beginning of the earth. However, the reality of radioactivity is that we know the rate of decay is constant based on both physics and mathematics (check out this video for how we can use mathematical proof models to demonstrate constant rates of decay). Therefore, the AIG argument that we do not know that decay rates are constant demonstrates a profound misunderstanding of empirical data and mathematical relations that describe the natural world around us. In fact, they completely disregard the many different types of dating techniques scientists use that each confirm one another. 

For instance, other forms of absolute dating exist such as tree ring counting, thermoluminescence, electron spin resonance, and many other different types of radiometric techniques. I encourage you to explore these techniques here and understand this for yourself. Each technique demonstrates the earth is much older than 6,000 years old and when combined with the various different techniques of relative dating using rock strata and formations, it becomes apparent that we have solid scientific evidence that the earth is much older than what AIG thinks. For instance, scientists can even use “molecular clocks” and determine when species diverged from one another well over 6,000 years ago by comparing relative DNA mutation rates that is known to correspond to a constant rate of time.

To further demonstrate how flawed their argument is, I will introduce one other aspect of their argument against using scientific methods to determine the age of the earth. The website suggests that since scientists were not present at the time of the formation of those rocks, they cannot know exactly what happened and cannot try to understand. Central to their argument is that “what we observe and measure today exists only in the present.” Therefore, they discount all use of science to make estimations of the past. With this, as they try to discount radiometric dating as evidence since we were not around back then, they invalidate their own argument as they suggest that we should accept the words of the Bible as evidence. We certainly were not alive when the Bible was written either.

The point is that science uses an enormous array of techniques and methods that supports one another, providing sound evidence that the earth is billions of years old, rather than a mere 6,000 years. AIG fails to use good science because their only arguments are to use scientifically-inaccurate claims to try to disprove scientific methods. In their attempt to do this, they fail to provide any proof or evidence of their own to demonstrate the earth is only 6,000 years as they claim. In fact, they invalidate their own argument in their attempt. AIG’s only presentable evidence is an ancient written work that is known to be filled with abstract symbolism.

The YEC camp are closed minded. You cannot reason with them. There is not a bigger fallacy being taught today in the Bible colleges and churches than that of YEC. There is compelling Biblical and scientific evidence that the earth is very old. I strongly encourage you to read chapter 12 from Pastor Max D. Younce's excellent book titled: "The Truth About Evolution; Or; Don't Let Satan Make A Monkey Out Of You." As Dr. Younce explains, in Genesis chapter one God REMODELED the earth. I fully agree. Please read the book.

Sadly, 90% of pastors today, and the shameful incompetent Bible colleges who train them, teach the YEC fallacy. I'm talking about Crown College in Powell, Tennessee. I'm talking about Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina. I'm talking about Pensacola Christian College in Pensacola, Florida.

Another thing that I was deceived about by Baptist preachers is Zionism. All my young adult life I had been indoctrinated to think that we must always support the modern-day nation of Israel. I was taught that Jews were special, and we should treat them as special. Boy, was I an idiot! What saith the Scripture? Galatians 3:28-29, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.” The Bible is very clear that only born-again Jews and Gentiles alike are of the spiritual seed of Abraham.

Another thing that I was misled by Baptist pastors to do is always vote Republican. But I have learned that BOTH Democrat and Republican parties are merely two separate legs moving toward a New World Order. In the United States we have a wicked controlled left-right paradigm. Luciferians are behind the scenes controlling everything. If you doubt that, then you are very naïve dear friend. Sadly, the most dangerous place to be today is in 90% of America's Baptist churches!!! Go figure! I am an independent fundamental Baptist myself, which is why I am well qualified to expose my own corrupt camp. I was lied to in my youth by Baptist preachers about modern-day Israel, tithing 10%, the Young Earth Creation fallacy, to only vote Republican, having to pray to be saved and numerous other things. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!

Whacky Young Earthers Claim Dinosaurs On Ark Grew Slower

The truth is that there is no evidence to support a YEC. In fact, proponents of YEC have gone to bizarre and insane extremes in a lame attempt to prove their speculative theories. Case in point is Henry Morris III and a half dozen co-authors who claim that Noah took baby dinosaurs aboard the ark. The book's authors desperately grasp for straws to boost up their straw-man heresy:

“God could well have chosen specimens He knew would undergo their growth spurt as soon as they left the Ark. This would solve the common skeptical objections of fitting and feeding huge dinosaurs on the Ark. That is, the dinosaurs weren't actually that huge while they were on board. The growth spurt just after leaving the Ark would also mean that they could quickly outgrow potential predators.”

What you've just read is typical of the unscholarly rubbish, bizarre assumptions and junk science of Young Earth advocates! Since there is no logical way that hundreds of dinosaur species could fit onto the Ark, Young Earth advocates are forced to shrink the size of the dinosaurs, minimize the number of dinosaurs, and even slow down their growth rate! How ludicrous! This is the “science falsely so-called” that the Bible warns us about in 1st Timothy 6:20. Clearly, dinosaurs DIDN'T co-exist with mankind.

1st Timothy 6:20, “O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called.”

The Bible warns us about “OPPOSITIONS TO SCIENCE”! The Greek word for “oppositions” in 1st Timothy 6:20 is antithesis and means “conflict” (i.e., a conflicting theory). The word “science” is the Greek word gnosis and means “knowing” (i.e., knowledge). Thus, the Bible is warning us to avoid conflicting theories with factual science. For something to be true science (meaning: the study of), it must first be observable, testable and documentable. Evolution is none of these! Certainly, the bogus theory of evolution conflicts with all established laws and principles of legitimate science. Evolution is FALSE science!

Furthermore, the claim that dinosaurs lived amongst man and boarded the ark of Noah's time is also a gross opposition of legitimate science! Beware of anyone who teaches that dinosaurs boarded Noah's ark! Nor did dinosaurs live at the same time as men. Science proves that the earth is very old, just as the Bible teaches in Psalms 102:25, “Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.”

Dear reader, if you think that dinosaurs lived with humanity 5,000 years ago, then you are just as ignorant as the person in 2022 who still thinks the earth is flat (and there are plenty of nuts who do). Legitimate science (e.g., geology, paleontology, archelogy, et cetera) shows that the earth is billions of years old, and that dinosaurs lived 65,00,000 to 220,000,000 years ago, and that human civilization has only been around for approximately 6,000 years. Why is that so hard to accept and believe? An Old Earth Creation (OEC) in no ways contradicts or violates the literal 60-day creation in Genesis. Pastor Curtis Hutson believed in an OEC, which you can hear him explain in his 6-part intriguing 1974 sermon series titled: “DEMONOLOGY.”

The Holy Bible teaches that A LION is the strongest among beasts, but take a look at the Tyrannosaurus dinosaur skeleton above. Proverbs 30:30, “A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any;” This is further evidence that dinosaurs DIDN'T live with mankind.
