Young earth creationists believe the earth is 6000 yrs old. Somebody at my church told me that the term "days" in Genesis in Hebrew/Greek refer to literal days. However, I have a hard time accepting that Young Earth Creationism is the truth, mainly because of pre history.
According to Wikipedia, ancient history is recorded as far back as about 5,000 years ago. Dinosaurs are accepted to have lived tens of millions of years ago. Ice age animals-like saber tooth tigers, woolly mammoths, lived tens of thousands of years ago. How does that fit into young earth creationism? Carbon dating has been proven to be accurate, btw. How would/could scientists be wrong millions/thousands of years?
The only evidence that dinosaurs coexisted with man is cave paintings that one could argue, may have been hoaxes, and I see no even remotely possible historical evidence that man coexisted with Ice age animals-like mastadons.
What are your views on young earth creationism, and my claims about it?
