Young Earth vs Old Earth

Young Earth

  • 6000 years old
  • Literal Day - morning and evening
  • Animal created same day as Adam and Eve
  • Dinosaurs lived with humans - Dinosaurs killed by flood
  • No death before sin - Romans 5:12, Romans 8:20

Old Earth
  • 4.5 Billion years old - makes lots of assumptions, rejects literal text
  • Rejects literal days
  • Dinosaurs lived before man
  • Death existed before the Fall of Man

Questions:
  • Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Life.  And it was assumed if they ate from it again, they'd live never die.  Did the animals eat from the tree?
  • Animals were not saved, so was death in natural order?
  • Man only ate plants so there was no need for killing animals for food

Dinosaurs:
  • Flood killed them - Mammoths at Baylor
  • Confirmed by fossils that were covered by mud 
  • Sea Creatures on mountains
  • 2005 NCState - fossil that was thought to be 65 million years old and tissue and red blood cells.  Confirms that it lived a few thousand years ago.
