I seem to recall hearing about a freshly laid chicken egg carbon dated as being several thousand years old. Anyone know what I am talking about?
On the other hand, I see nothing wrong with the universe being millions of years old. Keeping in mind that the first five books of the Bible were not written by the participants but by Moses quite a great deal of time later. Oral traditions evolve quickly.
On the other other hand, we used to say diamonds took thousands of years to make, and now we make them in laboratories in hours from peanut butter (or was it just gook that looked like peanut butter?). Who's to say it isn't possible for fossils to be made faster than scientists say.
On the other other other hand, has anyone noticed how Genesis mentions other people of the world at the time when Adam and Eve had only had Cain and Abel? Maybe god made a new brand of human 10,000 years ago and everybody is right. Big Bang and Creation.
It's all just speculation, might as well make it interesting
Peace be with you,
G.
