The world's scientists who just coincidently happen to be the smartest men in the world agree that there is absolutely no credence in a biblical creation. Anybody who believes that stuff and sloughs off the fossils from manlike creatures millions of years ago and the dinosaurs which roamed the earth 65 million years ago has a real problem on their hands.
Just curious...at what age did you first make up your mind? Tell the truth now because:
"the fearful, and the unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, will have their part in the Lake burning with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."

Radiocarbon dating (sometimes simply known as carbon dating) is a radiometric dating method that uses the naturally occurring radioisotopecarbon-14 (14C) to estimate the age of carbonaceous materials up to about 58,000 to 62,000 years

On a philosophical basis, there's no credence than anything exists now.
On a scientific basis, if they were honest, the best they could come up with is "We can't really be sure. We weren't present."

Lol, What I was doing was teasing Melvin. Although its true that carbon dating only goes to about 60,000 years.
I was teasing him because he (and rightly so) commented on a spelling error I made. I corrected it.
Oh, Mr5150 you forgot to post this part of my quote.
"I think the theory of evolution is probably correct."
Jellyfish have no brain. Like me before my first cup of coffee.

LOL...spelling error indeed. Like I said:

They're
They all sound the same but the meaning is 180 degrees out of phase...one with the other. It's nice that I could be a part of your education or at least broke you of faking it.

On a scientific basis, if you were honest, you would not see that as the best they could come up with, but the best you can come up with.
The best they can come up with is "this is what the best and repeatably veried evidence indicates". 'nobody can be sure of anything' is the miserable best a theist can do to try to scrape a draw.
