['The materials here today didnt come directly from the Big Bang, except for maybe some hydrogen and helium somewhere. Just like you can't say humans came from the Big Bang. But everything is a result of the Big Bang.
Nice try. Your comparing living and non-living material as if they are the same. Living material ages from the day it becomes alive. Non-living material ages from the moment it exploded into existence.
So this means that all non-living material should date close in age. But a 4.3 billion year old earth, in a 18 billion year old galaxy, does not fit with current views of the Big Bang. That's like having a baby that's older than you are. The concept does not work.

No, no, no. The earth is younger than the galaxy, even by the statistics you provided, so your baby analogy is just stupidly wrong.
You know what? You don't understand. See, there's this thing called gravity. It's what caused the planets and stars and everything to come together. And it is what causes objects with sufficient mass to start fusion. This is what makes stars burn. And it is also what causes the heavier elements to form. But science is too hard for you, isn't it?
"Your comparing living and non-living material as if they are the same."
What a collosal dumbass - fusion and fission for the elements for starters. Moving up a little, so it's impossible to make a cathedral out of sandstone millions of years old because that cathedral also would then be millions of years old? *sigh*
I think this guy has idea that the earth is the center of the universe. Thus, the earth is the parent in his little analogy. It's still stupid wrong, but it's not quite as lame as it appeared.
Isn't the living material made up of non-living material? if living material can magically reset the "age counter" to zero, why can't other things?

I thought jesus was the result of the BIGBANG? Oh, wait a minute, that was immaculate conception, sorry, my bad...
NotMe- "If I could create the universe in 6 days I would want people to know just how powerfull I am instead of making it look like random chance."
How come nobody is railing on what I think is the funniest line in there? The first one!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
