RodWeather added: ''Regardless, Ussher's calculations were somewhat accurate, and the roughly 6000 year age of the world has been built upon by more recent scholarship and backed up by recent scientific research in [[creation science]].''

I have a few problems with this:
 +
* The first part about the calculations being accurate is expressing an opinion.  I agree with the opinion, and Conservapedia does express opinions at times, but we should keep it to a minimum and I don't think it's necessary in this case.
 +
* The bit about being built upon by more recent scholarship is rather vague as to what it's referring to.  As worded at the moment I don't think it means much, but perhaps it could be made clearer.
 +
* Creation science has produced lots of evidence that is more consistent with a "young" Earth than one billions of years old, but they don't claim to be able to support ''scientifically'' an age as specific as around 6,000 years.
