First of all, Mr. Jazzman, I shall ask you to produce your "seemingly contrary evidence"--more on that word ''seemingly'' later on. I ask this to challenge you. But I am not challenging you to fight. I am merely challenging you to think, and think ''hard'', about the quality of what you take to be the evidence contrary to a young earth.

This will probably surprise you, but much of the evidence from the solar system ''is not consistent'' with an old system, and an old earth to be a part of it. For example: the planet [[Mercury (planet)|Mercury]] ought not have a magnetic field. And yet it does. For another example: the rings of [[Saturn]], as seen by [[Voyager I]], have an intricate pattern that no [[Astronomy|astronomer]] has ever been able to explain. And for that matter, the Great Red Spot on [[Jupiter]] and the Great Dark Spot on [[Neptune]] ought to have dissipated long ago, but have not. These do not add up to an old solar system.

Indeed, were the solar system half as old as the traditional scientists pretend, then the [[moon]] ought to have touched the earth that long ago. If the earth were much older than ''ten'' thousand years, its own magnetic field ought to have been strong enough to tear it apart.
