Who said it was exactly 50,000 years, wasn't me.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

GC You said it was about 50,000 years old, "not really any older though", but perhaps even younger than that. You didn't say "exactly" but you narrowed the field fairly significantly.
You're wrong either way so what difference does it make.

So what evidence brought you to the 'about 50,000 years old' conclusion?
From nuclear engineer, professors and nuclear physicist.
None of which are aliened with Answers in Genesis.

I showed an upper limit and the lower limit is 6000 years, so.

Again all those methods are listed and verified to work.
You choose to openly denounce and claim they do not work because you are a young earth creationist. Out of the various flavors why choose the most absurd one.. i mean god created everything why not just create the sun moon and well the solar system and nothing else.

How did you show an upper limit? Can we see links to anything demonstrating where 50,000 came from?
