Proof the Earth is about 6000 years old:

is it the fact that the bible supports a young earth ? do you not accept the possibility it was a metaphor for getting to the real point of the book?
we have the book of genesis which you say is 100% accurate, but we also have the book of job which tells us of god making a bet with satan(or some bad dude) that Job will never do a bad thing. He then gives Job, who is said to be the most righteous man in existance at that time, over to Satan who then proceeds to torture him in every way possible.
Tell me, this really happened? Or is it more likely a metaphor for how we should love God even in the face of adversity? Just to put things in perspective, God killed the wicked people of Sodom and Gomorrah through fire and brimstone, which might be considered a quick death. However, he allowed Job, the most righteous man, to suffer torture at the hands of satan just to satisfy Satan's curiosity(because God is omniscient he already knew job won't give in to satan), just so god can tell him "I told you so".
Tell me, does this story support a literal bible?

What Ailed Old Neanderthal Man?
In 1912 the famous Piltdown skull was found in a gravel bed in southern England by Charles Dawson. It created a sensation since it clearly was a creature halfway between man and beast. Evolutionists were ecstatic.
While a few scientists were skeptical, it was accepted by scholarly opinion throughout the world. It is n he obvious truth that Neanderthal man was fully human.

No orthodox expert would dare to propose a recent beginning of man which would correspond to the Biblical account. Although various authorities have pointed out that the variability found among human fossils is really no different from the amazing variability found among people today, little or nothing is made of this fact in the textbooks. White, middleclass scientists should not necessarily make themselves the model from which fossil bones are judged and compared (Custance, 1968, p.26-31).
Arthur Custance is Old Earth, you know ? He's strong on Gap Theory.
See Doorway Papers website. See his book Without Form and Void.
And his article Who Taught Adam How to Speak? is interesting. Custance can get very technical and is not always easy to follow without repeated passes through his articles.

I do not care how long it took God to create the universe. I am only concerned with what the Holy Bible says about how long ago the Earth was made ready for life and how long ago life began on this earth. That calculates out to a little over 6000 years ago. That does not give evolution enough time to work by building on small mutations to mutate over time into all the creatures we see today.

themselves thinking they had it all thought out and really were not even close
if they could be so wrong. I doubt however those percentages are really that
high since typically the only thing they would be wrong about would be ages
and some causes.

You can pick any time frame you want in between I don't care since as I pointed
out already....I don't know.

RJ is trying to say the sun doesn't have a mass of 1.99 E 30 Kg when all he has is some nutty 16 yo with the handle 'exchristian88' and doesn't even know that video is a parody he is so stuffed with himself.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun
From the article the main figures we need to consider are:
1. Sun fusion rate - 620 million metric tons
2. Mass-energy conversion rate - 4.26 million metric tons
3. Age of the Sun - 5.57 billion years
4. Mass of sun today - 2×10^30 kilograms
To determine if the kid is right we need to calculate how big the Sun should have been 5.57 billion years ago. The kid said the sun was 6 billion years old verses 5.57 billion years old. The only other figure he stated was 5 million tons of hydrogen every second, which does appear to be an over-estimate of the 4.26 million tons stated by wikipedia. He appears to have rounded up instead of down. But the kid claims the Sun would have swallowed the Earth if it had been big enough to have had that much hydrogen a few million years ago using his figures.
So can you calculate what the mass of the Sun was 5.57 billion years ago? It is now 330,000 times bigger that the Earth, according to this article.
