That's because your OP was answered a thousand posts ago and you've been doing nothing but trolling ever since.

. all this information would have be gained and these uses would have been developed if everyone believed life on earth was 100 years old - which means the Darwinian explanation for the history of life on earth is completely irrelevant to them.
You're confusing the age of the earth with the history of the earth. The history is true no matter what the age is.

You really should stop talking about Darwin. Do you consider the Wright Brothers the epitome of aviation?
