(Note: I know I have posted this before on other sites on the web, but since I've been talking about the relationship with Earth and the Scriptures I thought I'd share it again here).
So, how old is the earth? And what about all these claims of the Earth being millions and billions of years old? Well, the answer is shocking and quite simple. WE'VE BEEN LIED TO! The dating methods that are used to measure how old the planet are proven false but are still presented as "fact." According to Science magazine (Volume 141, 1963, page 634), a living mollusk was tested with the radiometric method Carbon-14 and the reading said it was DEAD for 3,000 years while it was STILL ALIVE! Carbon-14 is still used today to measure how old rocks are and such.
Also, another method that is used is Potassium Argon and this has also been proven inaccurate as well. In the Journal of Geophysical Research (Volume 73, July 15 1968, page 4601), lava rocks were tested by Potassium Argon from a volcano that erupted and it's reading showed that it erupted 3 billion years ago. But IT ACTUALLY ERUPTED IN 1801! This shows that the earth is around thousands of years old instead of billions. (Oh, and you have a question about 'dinosaurs' check out Job 41. It's name is Leviathan).
One thing that is debatable among Christians was how long is a 'day' in the six days of creation? Was it six literal days? The word 'day' is used different ways in Scripture. Sometimes referring to a long period, such as a thousand years in 2 Peter 3:8 and other times it refers to a 24 hour cycle. Genesis 1 makes it clear that it's referring to 24 hour days because it mentions concerning each day 'the evening and the morning' was such and such day (read Genesis 1:5, 8, 13, 19, 23, 31).
It's time to avoid 'oppositions of science FALSELY so called!' (1 Timothy 6:20)
