And since we have about 5000 years of recorded history to use that leaves 1000 years for humans to evolve from the very first life into humans and for humans to develop the ability to write and record history and such. Prove that. Or assuming you're even more retarded and don't believe in evolution give any shred of evidence at all that a magical/supernatural being intentionally created humans in the manner described in the Bible (I say that because you're surely Christian so that's the basis of your beliefs. If you were merely a theist but not any particular type you'd still have the difficult task of providing evidence that a deity created the world/man but it would be a bit easier since it wouldn't be as specific as any single religious belief).
Give me any method, at all, that validates your claim that the world is 6000 years old. And you can't use the Bible. Because there are thousands and thousands of peer reviewed articles detailing radiometric dating, fossil records, geologic records, etc, etc that support my claim that the earth is much older. I haven't seen any that support your claim that weren't published by Christians.
The problem with all these "peer reviewed articles" is that none of those "peers" were around when the world "started."
And...there are MANY debates about the radiometric dating, fossil records, geological records, etc. It doesn't take much research to find that there are MANY "peer reviewed articles" that show that they cannot pinpoint ANYTHING.
We'll never know how old the earth actually is. To me, there's no sense in even debating it because we don't know. We won't know. And it is a merry-go-round debate on who is right and who is wrong. In the end, we don't know. None of us were there. None of the scientists were there.
