According to evolutionary scientists, the earth is over 4 billion years old; but Biblical chronology dates the age of the earth at about 6,000 years. Forget theology, just use Occam's razor. The figure of 4 billion years is almost too ridiculous to consider seriously. How could they even be sure of their dating with something that old?

How?
Speed of light - measuring the red shift of a star or galaxy. More distant galaxies have longer red shifts. Most distant ones give a result of 4.5+ billion years. AFAIK.

How could they even be sure of their dating with something that old? As best I can tell, it's sort of synergistic with the need for more time for this or that evolutionary development to occur. The dates are always shifting, further and further back.
