Young Earth theory... Evolution is a lie!!!!

I am pretty sure that the earth is more than 6,000 years old, simply because i have analysed rocks which we have found to be 100,000yrs+ using Carbon-14 dating. Whether evolution is real and whether god created us is a discusssion for physicists and theologists, but as a geologist i can categorically tell you that the earth is more than 6,000 years old

Sometimes science deals with incredibly large numbers, sometimes with great distances still other times with infinitely small particles. In science we must expand our conception of reality all the time. One of the very difficult concepts is the understanding of time. Everyone is conscious of the changes in the physical and biological world; they give us an awareness of time. The daily rhythm, the seasons, physical changes throughout a human lifetime are familiar concepts of time to us. Time is measured by change, but where change occurs over millions of years our own perception of time is on unfamiliar territory. To understand the rhythm of change of our planet and the effects it has on life on Earth we have to expand our perception of time. The geological processes that shape the surface of our planet, move the tectonic plates, build mountains and erode them again work over millions of years. These forces provide the ever changing conditions for life, which adapted to those changes. But those changes did not go undetected. Our understanding of Earth has expanded tremendously in the past 100 years, and new technologies have provided further insight into Earth's dynamic and history. Earth itself acts like a clock, rotating on its axis once every 24 hours. To read Earth's time it is necessary to look at the changes that have been recorded. To identify changes that occurred due to the geological processes of our planet we can look at rocks. They are key to both the past and the nature of processes. Life has managed to leave records of time and the changes it went through time as well. Fossils are the remains of ancient organisms. Some looked very similar to life forms that are still living today. Fossils can be bones, teeth, shells, impressions of plants and even imprints of animal tracks. Fossils within a rock are a type of organic clock that tick by systematic radioactive decay of certain chemical elements, which permit us to measure with remarkable accuracy the number of years that have passed since the minerals in a rock crystallized. Fossils are recorded in rocks much like your footprints are recorded on a beach. As you walk along the beach, if the sand is fine enough and soft enough, you will make footprints. If the wind and waves do not destroy your footprints, they may record your existence well after your passing. Fossils are "footprints". Against the odds, these records of past life are preserved. In this section on Earth's history and evolution, we look at the story of Earth's geological and biological history that these "footprints" tell us.

yes it is false that there will be evolution.

this is jst an imagination of some cristians... but i think evolution is not a lie its a process tat had occured...... earth was formed around 4.57 billion years ago...i'm no scientst to prove tat... chek this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_Earth

The measuring of uranium's rate of becoming lead, is one of a very few ways of dating, which seems to suggest great age. There are at least 68(!) alternate ways of dating, which suggest the age of the earth (and universe) as much lower; some in the lower or mid millions, and many others in the thousands, just as Genesis states. Carbon dating works well for recent dating. Picture helium, which floats an air balloon so well, for it rises so quickly... as will our voice if we inhale it. Helium is a very uncomplicated chemical. Lacking complexity it leaves matter (minerals) and enters the atmosphere very quickly. For the amount of helium STILL IN minerals, the earth is very young. Also, the oceans have too much salt in them to be billions or even millions of years old. And the rate of erosion at Niagara Falls, suggests a young earth (for a few examples). :))

NO evolution is not a lie there is substantial evidence to prove that earth is way older than 6000 yrs what about the radio carbon dating of carbonaceous material older than 6000 yrs do you think they have fallen from the space or the plants and animals os age greater than 6000yrs i think if you do some more research on this subject you would realize that

ya,well my mind is pretty much clouded by it.seemslike a reasonable xplanation.why bother to thnk about another one when you have a good one at hand.

I don't know what to believe.

Evolution is the truth . The bible may say the opposite , but one should accept the facts.......

Is it realy going to matter either way. I dont think you are going to out live the earth or the sun.

i don know what is young earth theory can anybody explain it.. It may 6000 years since man kind has started to establish

its a crap!!!!!!!!!!!how can evolution start only 6000yrs ago??????? i dont think that 6000 yrs are enough to transform an amoeba into an elephant. moreover the radioactive dating is alsoa proof of the age of evolution

Why over 6000 years, and not over 7000. Or 10,000? Why the christian version of the origins and not, for example, the hindu version? Why you call evolution a lie? Can you prove it is a lie?

Evolution is not a lie, it is rather one of the processes by which God brought all living things into being. On another topic, The Earth, held in being by God's love, is Billions of years old rather than merely a few thousand. Evolution is not the same thing as the Geological age of the Earth.

Not completely

Actually no one is able to give an accurate period when earth was formed.Depending on many assumptions various people are putting an age as they like.

This theory has been concocted by humans and I just marvel at the way how they see the past by just looking at relics.

I am completely with you! Write some more on the topic!
