Does this mean that in a few years creationists have always said that the world was old, just as they have always said that "microevolution" occurred?Edited by Dirk, : topic

This is not what I meant. What I meant is what Coragyps already indicated; if you go back a couple of years, you will find creationists who denied that any form of evolution or change happened. You won't find them anymore, and the reason for that is that they no longer can defend or rationalize that position, not even to themselves. And I would argue that this is going to happen with the 6000 year old earth as well (and most of their other ideas as well, given time). The problem with creationists, though, is that they cannot admit that they were wrong, because then they would have to admit that their theology/reading of the bible was/is wrong and that would open the door to the possibility that they are still wrong about other things in the bible. Therefore they will continue to deny that their positions ever changed.
