This nonsense keeps getting repeated even after I've posted links to the Pasteur Institute in Paris, showing that ol' Louis Pasteur was merely working on the problem of food spoilation, and he showed that food had to be exposed to airborne bacteria in order to develop mold. Certain cretaionists have blown this into a fantasy proof of one of their fantasy dogmas.

See post#1279 to B.Babbitt above. This has been posted on this thread before. You have seen it several times. The proof against abiogenesis involves far more than Pasteur's experiment - although that in itself is strong proof against abiogenesis. You dishonestly ignore the proof given to you and just keep repeating garbage. Disprove my post# 1279, then you can say it is nonsense. Until you disprove it, your claims that abiogenesis may be true are an absolute lie - just like almost everything you say.

Gentlemen, you see the constant provocations addressed to me, which are clearly intended to spark an intemperate response -- one which will then "justify" complaints to the moderators to pull this embarrassing thread. Observe that I do not rise to the bait. Nor should any of you. Do not be distracted. Don't be tempted into any flame wars which will provide an excuse to get this thread pulled. Permit no diversions! Stay the course! We want an answer from g3k:
HOW OLD IS THE EARTH?
