If the earth was sooooo old,the stars would have all burned out,and the
moon dust would have been much heavier.

old im into science, and to me the evidence suggests old. But i think everyone is entitled to beleive what they want. I still love God and Jesus (sorry if i rant - ive been through to many debates-im trying to relax a bit at the mo)

anyway GOD BLESS

Thats o.k. Jellybrain. I believe the earth is young,and what christian YEC
scientists say. I believe in science to. Things that can be observed, tested,
and repeated. Thats very nice that you are not pushy with your opinions and
views.

If you believe what Christian scientists say, you would not bring up the moon dust argument, since AiG (the leading YEC organization) has abandoned it.

Really, you should read through their list of arguments that should no longer be used anymore. There is a large number of arguments that YEC's used to use all the time (and some still use) that they now realize just are not true. The moon dust is one of them.

Would you like to explain the scientific basis of the stars dying out? You do know that we see stars dying out all the time, right? And forming.

The original ones have. And out of the gaseous remains of their passing come new stars.

and the

moon dust would have been much heavier.

No, it wouldn't. According to current rates of dust influx, the amount on the moon is just right for a 4 billion year old moon.
