"Employing techniques similar to those used to date archeological remains here on Earth, scientists have learned that a metal-poor star in our Milky Way called HE 1523 is 13.2 billion years old-just slightly younger than 13.7 billion year age of the universe."

LOL, I love to read the vanity of scientists along with drinking my coffee, which I have calculated to have come from a coffee bean that was picked about 1.997 months ago, from a coffee plantation that has produced rich coffee beans for about 3,000 years, or about 3,000 years after the earth was created by God.

Hate to break it to you but the earth is a couple billion years old. Understanding recognizing with the abilities God has given us the actual age of the earth in no way detracts from the knowledge that it was He who created it. I don't understand how He created it as it is beyond my ken, as well as yours. However I seriously doubt God would want us to forgo all common sense just to accept an actual number that can be found nowhere in the Bible.

I always get a good laugh out of those wacko creationists who think that the earth is only 5,000 years old. Boy, those ancient people like the Egyptians must have had a tough time fending off all those dinosaurs. LOL. And then there's the difference between Neanderthal, Cro-Magnan and modern man, but I wouldn't want to confuse the issue with facts, when fantasy stories like creationism work so well for some people. LOL.
