Am I confident that science has really nailed it at about 14 billion years old? Not really.

I know, it seems like it changes over time. When I was 8 years old in 1974, they said the Universe was 13 or 14 billion years old. By 1980 when I was a young teenager, it was 15, closer to 20 billion. Now it is 2014 and it is back to 14 billion like it was in 1974. Who really knows?

Nobody does, and as much respect as do have for the scientific community, some of this is just silly.

There are theories involving some of Einstein’s work that waver over time. I realize it’s important to study these matters and come up with good guesses, then try to prove them.

It really gets more like a fan-club at times.
