No, it's not my "perception", it's what scientists have consistently, and increasingly accurately, reported for the past 100+ years.
In recent decades the number of tools available for estimating geological ages has grown exponentially, from one or two (i.e., carbon-14 dating) to now dozens of radiometric and other methods.
As for Earth's rotation & revolution, those were hypothesized even in ancient times, but not confirmed as theory until the Age of Exploration and men sailing around the globe.
Today's it's confirmed fact, from cameras in space.
Likewise, the ages of geological materials are also confirmed based on numerous independent methodologies arriving at similar times.
VaeVictis: " 'so long as you don't call your religious beliefs 'science'.
And wow man, by who's authority do you issue that command from? lol."
US law forbids the teaching of religion as "science" in public schools, has now for many years.
Definitions of just what is, or is not, science are, by law, in the hands of scientists themselves, not anti-scientists such as VaeVictis.
VaeVictis: "Anyways, your fight is not with me but that of denying God.
You'll figure it out one day."
Sorry, but I have no argument with God, because I don't believe God has any beef with science.
Indeed I think God wants us to understand something of how He did & does it.
That, at least, has been a basic assumption behind what was centuries ago called "natural philosophy" and around the time of our Founders became "natural science".
Today's science is short for our Founders' "natural science", which began as an exploration of God's good works.
Neither they nor I believed the Bible forbids such enquiries.
Do you?
Do you realize how long man accurately reported the earth was the center of our universe? How many people where chased out of ‘science’ because they said the sun was at the center? Plato wrote about it, so it had been around in 4th century BC. It wasn’t defeated for about 2000 years after that. So evolution is in its infancy still if it has only been around for 100-200 years.
The problem here is you supplant the story God gave in Genesis 1. Here He clearly shows what happen. He is the only one that actually witnessed what happen. It is better to have faith in His word “without proof”, than faith in man’s ability with unverifiable proof from speculation and assumptions.
You are welcome to stand with the world, with the wisdom of man.... but I must share with you why that is a bad idea. First God said His foolishness is greater than man’s wisdom (I Cor. 1:25). A person can’t serve two masters (Matt. 6:24) and for those that love the world, the love of the Father is not in them (1 John 2:15). Lastly, for any Christian, it is an idolatry of man’s wisdom to place this belief ahead of what God said.
If supporting evolution is what it takes to be a scientist, then I want no part of that club. I am happy with being an “anti-scientist” as I will not be an “anti-Christ”.
