Quote:The funny (or sad) thing is, is that you along with non-believe scientist ignore the fact that the speed of light is slowing down. This matters because they are applying data observed now as unchanged in history when they've even proven that most "constants" are no longer that - constant. So what happens if you speed up the velocity of light? The rate of decay of radioactive elements is directly related to the speed of light. When the speed of light was higher, decay rates were faster, and the long ages would be expected to show up. As the speed of light slowed down, so the radioactive decay rates slowed down. This inevitable conclusion will never be accepted by standard science. The data are indicating, we are living in a very young universe. By assuming today's rate of decay has been uniform, the earth and universe look extremely old. This is how atomically we "look" like we're 4 billion years old when it's been only 6 days (aka 6,000 years).
I'm curious to know what "non-standard" "science" is.
