[How old do you believe the Earth to be, and why?]

About 6,000 years old.

No, I don't believe this because red blood cells and hemoglobin have been found in some (unfossilized) dinosaur bones; nor do I believe this because the earth’s magnetic field has been decaying so fast that it couldn’t be more than 10,000 years old. I don't believe this because salt is pouring into the sea much faster than it is escaping and that the sea is not nearly salty enough for this to have been happening for billions of years; nor do I believe this because the total amount of helium in the atmosphere is only 1/2000th of that expected if the atmosphere were really billions of years old.

I believe this because the Word of God tells me so.
