You have no depth. Pick a topic and discuss it in depth.
Hint: this topic is about age correlations - i.e. it's about a lot of different, unrelated methods that all come up with the same answers. Even if you could shoot down one of them - and nobody ever has - you'd still be at square one. You'd have to shoot down all of them to prove that the conclusion is false.

This is just juvenile pratter, if you want to make a seriuos point you're going to have to show why the dating methods shown in the thread are wrong. You have to explain why all the methods we have that confirm each other are incorrect.
Why not try that?

Why should we even care about your rantings? It's not like you will be convinced by logic, reason, or evidence, so why should your opinions carry any weight?

Easy to do. Show the method you use to get distance to far stars. It involves time. So when you use fishbowl time as the big measure for everything, assuming time is the same at all points in the universe, you are doing so ignorantly and with zero basis.
As for so called dating methods, they all use the present as the key to the past. They all use the present nature as the basis to extrapolate back..via radioactive decay, tree growth...etc etc etc.
This is religion.

Let's establish how far back we have to go for you - do you belive that the earth is only 6,000 years old? Or iflonger, how much?

Nope. Many of them are completely independent. Take your own examples: Tree rings...starlight...decay...fossils...etc. Show us how they are interrelated.

You're the one who has to bring it if you want anybody to take you seriously.

Re: And now some questions on past times
The correlations on earth all are based on present nature. The stuff about the far universe is all based on time being the same there also. Yes distances to stars also is based on this.

Yes, give or take some hundreds of years the earth was created around that long ago.

So forget about the stars and just look at the dozens of correlations here on earth. Isn't time the same for all of them? How do you explain that lake varves in Japan and ice cores in Greenland and tree rings in the US are all in agreement? What is it that skews the three different measurements in three different places around the world by exactly the same amount? Be specific.
