Since God is the Creator of all things (including science), and His Word is true (John 17:17), the true (correct) age of the earth must agree with His Word.
However, rather than accept the literal biblical account of creation many Christians have accepted the radioisotope dates of billions of years and attempted to fit long ages into the Bible. The implications of doing this are profound and affect many parts of the Bible.

These results indicate that the entire geologic column cannot be millions of years old. This confirms the Bible and challenges the evolutionary idea of long geologic ages.

“Thus, the K-Ar model does not meet even the basic criteria of a hypothesis in the scientific method…The potassium-argon dating method – once heralded as a solid scientific method – has proven to be unreliable.”

How Well Does It Work?How Well Does It Work?
“Since the calculations of age are quite sensitive to these assumptions, and since it is clear that we cannot know if the assumptions are true, and since radiometric dating produces wildly incorrect results for rocks of known age, it is quite reasonable to conclude that radiometric dates are entirely unreliable.”

KB tuff (Lava flow) found in East Africa (dated: 230 myo)
An alleged human ancestor was found nearby the lava flow (dated 2.61 myo)
A dilemma for the evolutionists

2. The alleged human fossil is dated to be 2.61 myo
3. Which age is correct?

“A radiometric ‘date’ for rock layers near a fossil is accepted only if it fits into the grand evolutionary scheme of things. If this is not the case then either new samples are taken or a different dating method is used. This is a situation where results are ‘interpreted’ in order to obey the evolutionary dogma.”

Evidences for a Young EarthEvidences for a Young Earth Too much helium in granite rocks Carbon-14 ratio in the atmosphere Carbon-14 in coal and diamonds Sodium in the oceans Rapid disintegration of comets Spiral galaxies Sediments in the ocean Decay of the Earth’s magnetic field Radiohalos for polonium in granites Population statistics Recession of the moon

ConclusionConclusionAll radiometric dating methods are based
on assumptions. If assumptions are accepted as true,
results can be biased. In textbooks and other journals these
assumptions have not been questioned.When the assumptions were evaluated
they were shown to be faulty.The results support a biblical model of a
young earth.
