Just because people believe something different to us does not make them wrong and us right Sorry estah, but I must disagree. Some things simply are wrong, no matter how fervently one may believe them. The Flat Earth for example. I know this to be incorrect because I have personally circumnavigated the globe. It doesn't matter how deeply the flat earthers believe in a flat earth, it is demonstrably a globe. the same goes for the young earth creationists' claim of the world being only 6000 or so years old. It is demonstrably wrong, on the basis of the various methods of radioactive decay dating. To awmslave Yes I was wrong, I had the 14 billion age in my head. However I don't think that changes any of my points, I think she said exactly what she meant to say. Since the idea of a "Young Earth" is demonstratably wrong, please show me a single person, a group of people or any number, or a single unbroken line of people who has watched the decay of the carbon from beginning to end that can prove through that unbroken line that it is the length of time that scientists say that it is. Strange, we haven't been able to measure that yet... Hmmm, can't provide that evidence...No? It's based on math models...and estimates.
