Give one RELIABLE source that the world is over 6,000 years, let me give you a head start before you begin, dont use carbon dating and other dating methods for your proof, because they are overwhelmingly flawed and unreliable even the inventor of carbon dating freferred to it being unreliable.
If you look for the evidences that are there, that the world is around 6,000 years of age you will be astounded,
population growth ratios- man could not nor anything could not have been here for millions and billions of years, for one there would be evidence everywhere of there remains and there are none, also the population today would be astronomical, etc... etc... theres just no way man could have been here that long,
Also when you look back into ancient artifacts and civilisations the only real viable proof goes only back around 6,000 years, from Kings and archeaological and historical finds, and thats exactly the timeline of the bible around 6,000 years this is undisputable historical fact!
There are so many real visiand logical evidences to this that I cant right them all down, evolutionist offer no rweal evidences as to the earth being old except hypotheticals and the adhock.
Theres something called polystrate fossils that are tree trunks that go right through verticaly the supposed millions of billions of sediment layers, but this is what would happen if there was a world wide flood where trees were uprooted and gigantic mudslides and sediments took place, also it doesnt take millions of years to have fossils, fossilisation can occur quite quickly. So much more!!!! search for it my friend! Peace!
Im talking about all the writings as a whole my friend not just Flavious Josephus himself! Peace friend and no strife!
Look at the population grows of fruit flies - making your argument, the world can't be older than a couple of months.

Don't use a dating method while dating? You must be kidding!
Which writings?
Pliny the younger
Thallus
Cornelius tacitus
The perigrinus
The talmud
Seutonius
Falvious Josephus
many more look them up! Peace friend!
Who of them wrote about Jesus Christ? Who wrote about Christians only? And most of them wrote more about Caius Julius Caesar than about Jesus Christ - in contradiction to your claim: There is more historical writings of Christ than any other historical figure in all of history at the time of Christ or before. [...] More than Ceasar, Nero, etc... etc..
That ain't Barney.
What I mean by dating is carbon or potassium-argon
Humble gunner did you know they have found a leg bone to a Trex in 2005 and it still has blood in it and vessels and they are red and can be squeezed out of the soft tissues that were inside and they have found other supposed old bones with the same.
There are more historians who have wrote of Christ, than anyone figure in history.
Look up historians who wrote of Christ or something along those lines.
Cornelius Tacitus--- considered one of the most accurate historians of the ancient world, Christus from whom the name had its origins, suffered the extreme penelaty during the rein of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators Pontius Pilatus
Flavious Josephus--- Jesus was said to be the Messiah, did surprising feats and it was said he was resurected condemmed by Pilate and taught many both Jews and greeks
Thallus--- wrote of the darkness that covered over during Christs crucifixion
Phlegon---also writes of an eclipse without reason
There are more historians who have wrote of Christ, than anyone figure in history. (post #310)
There is more historical writings of Christ than any other historical figure in all of history at the time of Christ or before. Thats pretty damming to your assumptions. More than Ceasar, Nero, etc... etc... (post #268)Now, you say that Cornelius Tacitus is considered one of the most accurate historians of the ancient world, and - guess what - he wrote a great part of his annals about Nero.
I'd say your statement in post #310 is not only hyperbole but flat-out wrong. And making such a statement casts a doubt on the truth you want to herald - something Augustinus warned against in the 4th century. You really should differ between Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Jesus as a figure of history.
Humble gunner did you know they have found a leg bone to a Trex in 2005 and it still has blood in it and vessels and they are red and can be squeezed out of the soft tissues that were inside and they have found other supposed old bones with the same.That was one of the more disingenuous descriptions of Ms. Schweitzers work I had to read. "Blood in it"? "Vessels squeezed out"? Gosh! Have a look at the reality...
Fine, and what kind of dating methods would you accept?
Dating the earth by population growth seems to be quite problematic...
The conspiracy obviously got to her...
:)
Nice to meet you here, too!
By Historical means By mathmatical calculations as to when things occured, and ratios. And then use deductive reasoning. I believe it would be much more effective.
I got news for you si tacuissem, that article didnt say anything worth reading! It explained nothing! Horner even suggested to reasearchers to try and prove the objects were not blood cells, talk about disengenuous! It has been said with great confidence that it is blood components in it.
Plus they have found other bones with blood components.
and that were not fossilised this isnt the first find. Talk about disengenuous, bring out all the info if your truly trying to be honest here.
