[brent1a]

I’m totally confused here......the Creationists are revelling in the fact that this find throws a “monkey-wrench” into the complexities of Evolutionist theory YET at the same time they’re acknowledging that this fossilized forest is millions of years old. I always thought diehard creationists would only admit that the Earth is 7,000 years old and thats it (or something like that). It seems to me that it’s just one more piece to a impossible puzzle that no one can totally figure out.

"I always thought diehard creationists would only admit that the Earth is 7,000 years old and thats it (or something like that)."

The Bible indicates that time of Human Beings on Earth comes to about 6000 years so far, as the generations are counted, and historical events are correlated.

Nowhere in the Bible is it indicated that the age of the Earth or the Universe is 6 or 7 thousand years.
