how can anything last 65 million years? why would it not turn to dirt?

Answer 1

the universe is a cycle of creation from destruction.. things are created by other things being destroyed.. and it just keeps going and going

its like when a bear shits in the forest.. the turd was created by the bear.. which is then broken down.. which creates life for plants.. which are eaten by the bear.... and then the bear is eaten.. which feeds us or other animals (and makes a nice rug in a cabin).. etc

Answer 2

It depends on what it as made of and what the conditions were for that 65 million years. I have pelycopod shells that are about 85 million years old from the Niobrara formation that still have their mother of pearl. On the other hand, the tuna I left out on the table went bad within hours.

Of course, numbers beyond a few thousand are too complex for some people, as are methods beyond adding the ages of a few men listed in a book, so some people fight the idea that the Earth could even be as old as the written history of some civilizations.

Answer 3

If it turned to rock I guess it could, however, they date the fossils by the rock layers and date the rock layers by the fossils, thats called circular reasoning. None of the dating games, like carbon dating, are acurate, so they guess. They think it should be millions of years old by the imaginary geologic collum and guess what? That's the date they get! Ask them how they are sure and they tell you it was found in millions of years old dirt. Ask them how they know the dirt is that old and they will tell you it's because they found that fossil in it. And pay attention cause just a few years ago that same fossil was only about 20 million years old and now it's 65 million using the same tests??? How can fossils age faster than time? Seems they can't prove evolution, but they need more tax dollars to spend, so they gotta keep adding millions of years to the equation so they don't get caught in a fraud.

Answer 4

In a way your right, however it doesn't turn to dirt it turns to stone. Its called fossilisation. This occurs when calcium carbonate or silica replaces biogenic material, however its not just limited to these minerals. I have seen fossils consisting of sphalerite (zinc iron sulfide) that are 350Ma. Fossilisation is how we can tell that things are 65Ma old, or even older and enables us to date relatively other layers of strata.
Paleontology enables us to track the evolution of life and the dates at which major environmental changes have occurred. This is a major pain in the but for creationists because it debunks all there arguments for the big flood and the creation of life and the earth.
Fastest73torino is a good example of this with his idiotic, egocentric idiocy which he is confusing for faith.

Answer 5

Here is another one for you Fastest73turindo. It might help you in your crusade against science and other forms of intelligent thought.

The average homeowner feels they can trust the professional
electrician who wired their house to know what he's doing. Most electricians have had formal training or years of experience in their field of expertise, and that's good because you trust them with the safety of your home and the lives of your family.

But how much do they really know about electricity?

Some of the things they think they know are nothing more than circular logic or assumptions based on assumptions! This has led to some very wrong thinking and has to be corrected time and time again, yet they claim to have all the right answers on matters electrical.

For example, ask an electrician how they know how much voltage is in a circuit. You'll be told about the magic little box called a voltmeter which can wondrously measure the invisible, odorless, weightless electrons and give the voltage. How do they calibrate this device to be so accurate? They run voltage through it and set it to match! Of course, you can clearly see the voltage they run through it would be known because it had been measured by a voltmeter, and on and
on in a prime example of circular logic.

The truth is they don't even care enough to change major mistakes when they find them. When they first started their arcane art, they guessed at which direction the electrons were moving and assigned the familiar positive and negative signs according to that - but they got it backwards! A century or two later, they decided they had it backwards but did not bother to change it except when working on things like designing computer chips. They'll tell you "it's good enough" or "it doesn't matter" when it comes to your home, but since
when has completely backwards from reality been good enough on something as deadly as electricity in your home? What if a gunsmith told you backwards doesn't matter when shooting a gun?

Electronicists are often at a loss when confronted with evidence that doesn't fit their beliefs. Light bulbs are not actually "light bulbs" but dark absorbers. When you turn them on, they suck the dark out of the room. You can prove this by holding your hand under a "light bulb". The dark will stack up under your hand where its path to the absorber is blocked by your hand. When they quit working and turn a dark color, it's not because they burnt out, it's because they're full. I once explained this to an electrician and he was at a complete
loss for anything to say. I could tell by the way his shoulders were convulsing as he walked away he was sobbing, and he avoided talking to me about electricity from then on. I didn't bother to tell him that electrons don't really exist (they have never been directly observed by anyone), but that electricity works with magic smoke. If you touch the wrong two wires together, the magic smoke leaks out and the circuit stops working.
By now it should be clear to the objective reader that electricians may think they know about electricity, but it's really nothing more than the guesses they've been taught to believe as fact by the self interests that controls the electrical industry. In any of the "official" codebooks and research journals they refuse to publish anything from outside their secular clique so they keep control of all information on the subject, even going as far as convincing lawmakers to force their beliefs on the public. More and more communities even
have laws requiring all electricians to be approved by the secular code and forced to follow the Electronicism dogma in their work!
