do you think the earth is between 5000 and 8000 years old?

Question

I ask the question to see how many people would answer yes. A couple of the answers the time warp continual ones gave me a headache. To each his own. I believe in facts not folklore

Answer 1

No. 4.56 Billion is the accepted date for most people with brains still intact.

Answer 2

I don't know why some are criticizing your question. I was going to ask something similar because I wanted to know how many people genuinely believed in a young earth.
To answer your question, I thinks it's between 4 and 5 billion years old.

Answer 3

Of course not! I truly can not understand how anyone can think that the Earth could be only 6000 years old, but "think" is an incorrect term; "believe" is more relevant, since faith is the requisite to maintaining what science and the fossil record can easily disprove! DefCon (Defenders of the Constitution) is protesting the Creation Museum on the basis of "bad science". The religious right wish to politicize Christianity in their efforts to undermine the separation of church and state and to force their agenda upon our country, but fortunately there are those with the courage to oppose them!

Answer 4

I think that before the Fall (when Entropy became a law) time and age were different. I'm convinced that Entropy is not operating at a constant rate, but is shifting, and therefore we see the speed of light "slowing" but really it's because entropy is accellerating.

So, what you call "8,000 years" or "a Billion years" is an irrellevant point. Human history only extends back to Noah, because everything was lost before that. So, none of us really knows what happened prior.

Answer 5

Only fools believe the world is 5000 and 8000 years old.

Answer 6

On Mondays, I feel like I'm between 5000 and 8000 years old.

Answer 7

Yes.

The earth is only seen as ‘looking old’ because we all take unconscious belief systems to the evidence. In other words, it could be said that the earth looks neither old nor young—it all depends on the ‘belief glasses’ through which one is viewing (interpreting) the evidence. Or to put it another way, it is just as valid for me to say, looking at the world through the ‘lens’ of the Bible (rather than the humanistic, evolutionized lens of our culture), that it ‘looks young’ (i.e. thousands, not billions of years old).

Answer 8

According to God's Word>>> From the beginning to Noah and the flood---2000 Yrs.
From Noah and The Flood To Birth of Jesus--2000 yrs.
From the Birth Of Jesus To Now--- 2007 Yrs.

Hope this Helps. God Bless you. + + +

Answer 9

Billions

Answer 10

Nope. I was just at the beach and there is a large rock formation they think is millions of years old. The Grand Canyon is millions of years old, how can people dispute that???
