101 Pieces of Evidence Earth is Young
Here are 101 ways to estimate the age of the earth: 1. DNA in ‘ancient’ fossils . DNA extracted from bacteria that are supposed to be 425 million years old brings into question that age, because DNA could not last more than thousands of years. 2. Lazarus bacteria —bacteria revived from salt inclusions supposedly 250 million years old, suggest the salt is not millions of years old. See also Salty saga. 3. The decay in the human genome due to multiple slightly deleterious mutations each generation is consistent with an origin several thousand years ago. Sanford, J., Genetic entropy and the mystery of the genome , Ivan Press, 2005; see review of the book and the interview with the author in Creation 30 (4):45–47 ,September 2008. This has been confirmed by realistic modelling of population genetics, which shows that genomes are young, in the order of t...
