==The age of the Universe is +/- 13 billion years.

Is your contention observable and repeatable?

==The age of the earth is +/- 4.5 billion years.

Same question.

==The oldest undisputed fossils of primitive life forms found on earth appear in rocks dating from 3.2 billion ago.

Same question.

Dude, believe your lying eyes.
Go outside tonight and if the sky is clear look up at the sky with a telescope or pair of binoculars. The light of many distant stars and galaxies take 100's of millions of light years to get here, so by definition, these have to be 100's of millions of years old.
The Hubble telescope can see stars being formed billions of years ago because it can see much farther into space and can see light billions of light years away and which take billions of years to reach its lens.
When we look at distant stars we are seeing them the way they looked when the light left them not as they are right now.
