The more I learn about science the more it brings me closer to understanding God's creation it feels like.

You know they carbon dated a brand new piece of rock from a volcano and it came back as "billions of years old" and atheists still believe this fairytale shit ?

Carbon dating isn't used on rocks. Thanks.

You can't tell me that the author wasn't snickering when she wrote out that quote.

If its "billions of years old", then it can't be brand new. Thanks.

> Gods creation?
According to the old testament the Earth was created 6000 years ago.

That was written down and translated by man and man is imperfect so therefore the chance of mistakes are high.

So you're admitting that nothing in the Bible should be taken at face value as fact?

In the beginning survival was a matter of incest and time out for hunting for food.

I'm saying that nobody could really speak for someone as powerful as God. All we can do is simply guess. Again, I'm not even claiming I speak for them, as I cannot possibly know what God's design is.

You cannot have it both ways.
1: God is so powerful God made you the opposite sex you end up wanting to be.
2: God according to you, designed you as a male.
3: You will counter with God provided a pill that will somewhat change some factors of your current body.

Frankly your God really fucked you over.

Thank God that God is not my God.

Then how do you know God even exists if you know nothing about "him"?

5,730 years

Also about as many years as the silly old testament originates from.

the oldest dates that can be reliably measured by this process date to around 50,000 years ago, although special preparation methods occasionally permit accurate analysis of older samples.

You can only carbon date organics...ie not rocks. Also carbon dating isn't a valid method past a certain date (50 000? years ago)
But yeah rocks can't be carbon dated.

With all your dating experience have you ever dated a rock?
How many of them were verified organics?

Impossible seeing as the earth is only 6000 years old. The satanic scientists are trying to trick you.
