In a general sense they may agree, but when "billions of years" are involved it's kind of hard to be precise, don't you think?

Not really. All sorts of lines of research have zeroed in on pretty much the same age for the Earth: 4.5 billion years. You'd be surprised if you actually did any reading on the subject instead of pontificating from a position of ignorance.

That's great. You've done your research and decided to subscribe to a line of orthodoxy proposed by those whom you've read. Have you also done your own research to test the claim that the speed of light is c. 386,000 miles per second, or do you take other peoples word for that, too?

What are you going to do when a peer-reviewed scientist claims the earth is really 4.6 billion years old? Or how about 5.7? LOL!
