Thanks FrogMom and houeto (and AppleGateRanch) for the pings.

Looks like there's another "discussion" about radiometric dating, I believe I'll pass up further reading.

The evil trickster god (Loki) created all the elements and isotopes in the exact ratios they would have had if they were created billions of years ago, only he did it 6000 years ago...

If they aren't at 50,000,000 years, I want to know what's in their diet!

What I always found most interesting is here we have what is probably far and away the most abundant living species on the planet.

And it was totally unknown until about 1979!!

So everytime I hear of an article or some scientists opinion something like “Well, we got that one covered pretty well.” all I can do is chuckle... OOOOOOOOO KKKKKkkkkkkk... yeah, right!

;-)

That must be it. Of course to use he's an evil trickster god. To Thor, he's just another nail.

I'm not buying it. There should be piles of 50,000,000 hummingbird-sized ant coprolites then....lots of them!
