I had NO idea there were people who REALLY thought that the earth was only 6000 years!!!

Yup, or close enough.

OMG!!

"Thou Shalt Not Take the Name of the LORD thy God in Vain".... But you get a pass for "OMG" (maybe it stands for 'Oh My Gravy' ... or something like that).

How dumb and UNTHINKING can you get??

You are calling a lot of not so dumb people dumb: Isaac Newton, Johan Kepler, Louis Pasteur, Robert Boyle, Michael Faraday, JC Maxwell, etc

Is it because the Jewish religion is about 6000 yrs. old???

No, it is based on a fair reading of the Bible and believing and understanding that it IS the Word of God. This includes Genesis, as well as the record of God's Word to Moses and the people of Israel when He spoke to them from the Holy Mount (Exodus 20: '...In six days the Lord made Heaven and Earth...'), as well as references from the Lord Jesus who vouched for the authenticity of the Law and the Prophets, who said at the beginning of Creation God made man and woman, who spoke of Noah and the Flood as reality.

There actually is much evidence for a <4.6B year old Earth.

“There actually is much evidence for a <4.6B year old Earth.”

There is a far chasm between 4.6 Billion and 6,000. The 6000 year old claim is flat earth... it doesn’t hold up the most basic evidence and isn’t based on any. Human Writing is more than 6,000 years old, let alone the entire planet.

The 6000 year claim is about as meaningful as that map another person made showing a body over the city where Jesus was believed buried and declaring he was buried where the heart of the body would be.

Its not based on any evidence, there is huge difference between creationism/ID and the young earth arguments, and its beyond sad that the person wishing to present the ID argument tied his millstone to a man made fallacy like young earth... because that meant the real claim for the debate that being ID was never really touched on because debunking young earth is such a low hanging fruit to prove that the true discussion about ID never really happened.
