[QUOTE="Tiger, post: 125768, member: 353"] Myles, I didn’t answer your question because it wasn’t a serious attempt at dialogue—it was a juvenile diversion from discussing the real issue: the origin of the universe. Both you and James have shown a consistent pattern of dodging meaningful conversation—especially when it comes to the creation of the universe, a topic you both introduced to this thread and yet contributed nothing to. This makes it painfully clear that you're not interested in actual discourse. If won’t answer my questions, then why would you expect me to answer yours? That said, the age of the Earth, and more importantly, the methods and underlying assumptions behind dating fossils and rocks, is a subject worth exploring. However, I won’t waste time on it here, where your input is as vacuous as ever. Instead, I’ll address it on the Origins Thread, where you’re free to continue offering absolutely no value to the conversation, as per usual. Now, while many who adhere to the Intelligent Design model of the universe may generally accept an old Earth (such as Stephen J Meyer from the video above), it’s still an interesting area to examine the actual methods used to date rocks and fossils—and among other things, how those methods have failed spectacularly when confronted with rocks of known, recent formation. I'll be taking a look at Mount St. Helens, for example. Rocks from the 1980 eruption were dated to be hundreds of thousands, even millions, of years old—a laughable discrepancy given that we know the rocks were freshly formed. Then there’s Mount Pinatubo, where lava flows from 1991 were assigned absurd ages, far older than the eruption itself. The Mendenhall Glacier’s retreat exposed rocks that were dated to tens of thousands of years older than the glacier itself. And, of course, rocks from Kīlauea in Hawaii, freshly formed during ongoing eruptions, were dated to millions of years—an outright farce, I'm sure you'd agree. [/QUOTE]
