Young earth creationism: Yahweh made earth as described in the bible, about 6000-10000 years ago. There's no direct proof for a young earth, but they do claim to have evidence that goes against the old earth theory. In reality this evidence is false, and usuaully stems from a poor understanding of geology, evolution, and science in general. They believe a global flood happened, even though there is no physical signs of there being a global flood. They believe crazy stuff, like that global flood is responsible for layering of the soil, fossils, and they believed the flood carved things like the grand canyon. They believe the speed of light and the speed of decay magically changed with time. All of their claims are thoroughly refuted by actual science, the numbers don't match up at all. Old earth: All our most reliable dating methods say the earth is 4.5 billion years old. Things like canyons that take millions of tears to carved... Either the earth is very old... Or some god set up all the evidence to make it look that way. Why would a god want to trick us like that? How silly. |
definitely this way!!! it's the most logical!!!
