Can you stop it, by you rougly mean 10 billion years.That's all right, the gentlemen who taught me Statics, Vector Calculus, Ordinary Differential Equations, Numerical Methods, C programming, Operational Amplifiers, Digital Signal Processing, Digital Telecommunication, Cryptography, and Field Programmable Gate Arrays weren't white either, and they got along just fine.
For future reference, evolution contains no criteria I know of for determining what "full" evolution is. You're thinking of the "Great Chain of Being" concept which came from ancient Greece and was enthusiastically adopted by the early church.
Jupiter is roughly the same age as the earth and the sun.
I thank you, you said you do not know when but you said you knew the date?Aww. I'm pretty sure that making that insinuation is about as bad as someone actually making the claim.
Do you mean when did it form? About the same time as the earth.
Well, dear, first there wasn't very much - just energy in a very small space. Then there was a massive and sudden expansion. We're not sure why, but one hypothesis is the collision of two hyperdimensional membranes. Some time after expansion (and with a few intervening steps) there was nucleogenesis, in which the first protons condensed out of the pure energy. A while later hydrogen and formed by pulling electrons into the protons. (I don't know how the electrons formed, by the way)
A long while later, quantum fluctuations in the original mass were much bigger, and some areas were more dense than others. These areas collapsed under gravity to become galaxies, and denser areas within them formed stars when the gravitational attraction was so great it forced hydrogen atoms to stick together to form helium. Helium was then forced together to form other elements including carbon, oxygen, silicon and iron.
When the heaviest stars were spent, the force generated by fusing these things together was unable to prevent gravity from squashing everything together. For a heavy star, this either means that everything becomes really tiny and a black hole, or that it gets so hot again it explodes in a supernova.
A nova's high temperatures generate heavier elements still - all the elements in the entire natural universe - and then fling them all over the place.
The process of star formation though is continuous. Somewhere in one galaxy, there was an area of matter dense enough to collect together into a dense rotating disk. It contained the elements from some of these supernova, and plenty of the oxygen, silicon, carbon and metals which make rocks. There was also, like many places in the universe, a lot of water. A bit over 4.5 billion years ago, this disk of rock and gas was squidging together into individual planetoids and a central star. After a bit of squabbling, things began to settle down and we have the solar system, roughly as we see it today. This happened roughly 10 billion years after that first expansion.
Hey, no problem.
Origins: Fourteen Billion Years of Cosmic Evolution (Sept 2005)
Origins explores cosmic science's stunning new insights into the formation and evolution of our universe: of the cosmos, of galaxies and galaxy clusters, of stars within galaxies, of planets that orbit those stars, and of different forms of life that take us back to the first three seconds and forward through three billion years of life on Earth to today's search for life on other planets
I told you were making it up.
Someone told me the earth was definitely 4.5 billion years old.
Now 4.5 billion +- 10.5 Billion (error rate)
That is just whack.
You are making it up.
I thank you, you said you do not know when but you said you knew the date?
Another thing, when did non life become life?
So you are not a liar a cheat and a charlatan.
Why did Dawkins claim you are still working on it, you have it all figered out.
How can test this?Don't know when what?
There is evidence of life as early as 3.9 billion years ago, so some time before then.
I'm glad!
Because we were answering different questions. We're still working on what happened before all of that stuff I described.
What recent times?The CofE has, or had, a lot of bishops in the masons, but they're not all, not by any means, freemasons. Especially so in recent times.
Clever clogg says that the planetis separated from the Universe.Er, lol.
The earth isn't the universe boy.
Just like a child isn't the same age as it's mother the earth isn't the same age as the universe.
And no... we are not making it up, you are just ignorant of science.
We can all agree that the house was built by men and didn't evolve into existence. The stove was also designed and manufactured by men and was purchased and installed by same. No species evolution involved.No. Both the house and stove are roughly 14.5 billion years old.
How can test this?
You mistunderstand. The universe is that old, the earth is 4.554 billion years old.Origins: Fourteen Billion Years of Cosmic Evolution (Sept 2005)

Plate tectonics is not a law of nature. It is a hypothesis, or as some like to call it: a theory. We have not seen any mountains appear out of nowhere, nor will we. We simply assume that it is true.Fortunately, we get new mountains through plate tectonics. But yes, the Earth is 'only' 4.5 billion years old.
