GOD determined to kill all life on Earth
Depends on how you define the word: "earth". The High School Biology book that everyone is required to read tells us about a biodiverse eco system. Clearly Noah had the plants and animals of Eden on the ARK. Man needs a whole eco system to survive. They have to have food to eat.

the windows of heaven were opened.'
People think when you open a window you equalize the temperature inside and out. While that maybe true the reason is that the pressure is made equal. My son is working on the production of silicon carbide wafers and devices, which are used in various high-power and high-frequency applications12. They have many heaters and air conditioners but they control conditions by controlling the pressure. This will determine how long the resisters will last.

The earth is six days old. So the question is: HOW long is a day. Is a day 24 hours, 1,000 years or a billion years? A 24 hour day can still be symbolic or allegorical. A best selling book: "Paradigm" explains how this works. ``
No, the earth was six days old when it was first made. A long time has passed since then. A lot of people have lived since then.

the Bible clearly tells us that the dove brought back an olive leaf as proof vegetation was sprouting from floating seeds.
That would be natural selection, the Bible is clear that Adam was a food producer. This is why Adam had to plow the land so he could gather the seeds and plant them.

How Old is the Earth?

Well, I've gotten the answer to that.

The answer is: No creation knows how old

Since we are the creation of the lord almighty.
It's right if we don't know how old the earth is ‘cause that is what makes God - God. He's a mysterious being. This type of question even the devil can't answer it.
Your right, we don't know exactly how old the earth is. But we do know that it's between 6000 - 10,000. We have records that confirm this estimate to be accurate.

Plus any gardener knows Earth can produce a mass of vegetation without any effort.
I suppose there is a point in this, but I do not know what it is. Man has to produce food to feed the people. Natural selection would keep a few million people alive at best.

Actually The Book of Enoch says Earth is filled with hot water - if not boiling.
The Book of Enoch says a lot of stuff, most of which is rubbish. It is in no way holy writ.
Regarding the Og tale from the Talmud it is obviously a lie as GOD determined to kill all life on Earth except that in the electrically insulated Ark.
God as Mad Scientist. More rubbish.

one day some UFO researchers had a fallen angel unravel a full reel of tape (old taperecorders?) in a few seconds compared to the minutes the humans would take.
OK, these three UFO researchers and a fallen angel walked into a bar with a reel of magnetic tape....

So given inflation, an hour should now be just shy of 18 days long.

Adam was dead 700 years before The Flood.
My condolences to the widow.
Noah took on foodstuffs.
So eating had already been invented.
No mention of seeds for planting after the flood.
They were created later on?
Plus any gardener knows Earth can produce a mass of vegetation without any effort.
That means that gardeners don't have to do anything? I knew I chose ther wrong trade!
The dove's olive leaf was proof plenty of animal food would be readily available after the flood .
As long as the animals ate olive leaves.

Inflation of what? Chapter and verse? God never invented inflation. He created a beautiful world for man, and a lovely moon, sun and stars! Perhaps you are referring to the supposed inflation phase of the scientific theory?

That doesn't make sense to me. How can the earth have been 6 days old when it was first made? God made the heavens and the earth on Day 1, so when the earth was made it was brand new.

Well on day one it was one day old. Day 2 it was 2 days old. On the day man was created it was six days old. When Noah lived it was even older...etc

Where is this record? You are kidding, right? Don't you know anybody can come up with records? Brother, I would rather agree with your first eleven words than agree with the rest. In this particular case, there is nothing like records.

I'm lost so what's your conclusion? Are you saying you know how old the earth is? Or this book knows how old the earth is. Stop beating around the bush. Call a spade a spade

We have detailed records from the first humans on the earth and they confirm that humanity is around 6000 years old, but the earth itself many be a bit older. So that's it, we can trace every generation going back to Adam and Eve
