I agree with Mr Jack on the point that this:
quote:
The bible is quite clear that they were created at the same time as the earth, therfore the earth is young.
forms the basis for most Creationists' belief in a young earth. However, any resulting science comes from their desire to prove to everyone else what they believe in.
By this I mean that a creationist of this kind doesn't wallow through reams of data on our little planet, its moon, our universe, etc. then conclude that it all came into existence a little over 6000 years ago. (S)he starts with the belief that God created this then tries to unearth () data that will support their already-stated conclusion.
