Yes, I've read the Bible and I'm convinced it is Truth.
I've seen enough 'scientific' hypotheses presented in the past to understand that they are often based on shaky assumptions. Sometimes the experimental results support the hypothesis, sometimes they don't. There are quite a few unprovable assumptions that go into the various dating techniques - so no, I won't be using those as my standards of Truth.

I don't worship Augustine, nor consider his writings to be infallible, nonetheless its interesting that you reference one of his quotes. Augustine also believed in a 'young' (i.e., not millions of years old) earth. He objected to 6 days of creation because he 'felt' it besmirched God's power and ability.
Since you appear to be a follower of Augustine perhaps we could agree on the young age of the earth, and focus our debate on whether God created the earth in one day or six...

...perhaps we could agree on the young age of the earth...

No, sorry.

I have done too many archaeological studies and radiocarbon dates to buy into a young earth.
