Millions and Millions of years ago = Man's Fairy Tale
Actually, it's Billions of Billions of years ago, at least that's what the Earth itSelf shows us.

Edited to add: Are you of the belief that God embedded old age into His Creation? Because it certainly appears old. Take the galaxies which are billion of light years away for instance.

God's own Creation shows us a multi-billion year old earth.
It shows me that He is not a liar and that it was all created. Science shows me they are muddled and confused as expected when people forget to include God. When they try to piece together a picture of creation without the creator using only physical processes and evidence obviously they could never have gotten anywhere.

This question is a quote but not from me so I assume it is for someone else. I do not see the stars as old at all. How long light takes to move really has nothing to do with it. That is about like saying, it would take me three hundred million years to walk to the nearest star so it must be 400 million years old. How fast you can walk actually has nothing to do with the age or distance to that star. Likewise how fast light moves as far as man can measure has nothing to do with the distance or age of stars. If God wanted light to be somewhere instantly, it would be. If He wanted starlight to be seen by Adam, as He did, the light would be here to see then, days after the stars were created. Only for those limited to thinking in the box and limiting themselves to the speed of light and natural world would associate these things. Creation is not limited to natural or physical laws or realities, sorry. Not when God fills the universe.

You should admit that all the bible speaks of the creation and refers to Genesis as well often. Jesus also mentioned the beginning and first couple etc. Your attempt to obfuscate this has no currency whatsoever.
I'll take that as an admission. So why don't you answer the question I asked? If inbedded age is true, how do you benefit?

Rocks less than 2000 years old have been accurately dated with radiometric dating. Why couldn't they date rocks created 6000 years ago or so? (Or whatever actual date creation is in your personal theology.)
Funny that date is roughly the time Jesus was here:) I will say this much, that natural processes derived dating may be good for as long as we know God did not come to earth, or will things to happen on earth that might have involved atomic realities having changed!:) Good luck telling us how long that might be!
I'm talking about what happens *AFTER* creation, not during.
OK, but since it is impossible to get ages from radioactive dating or any other natural process (because we do not know when the supernatural may have affected the natural) you need to have another way to show us something was after creation for sure. Also, if you admit that creation means that no normal rules and the natural do not apply at all, you might be beginning to suspect that that principle can easily be extended as needed to any other time God was working and changing things:)
No. As I said above, a rock created by a creator 6000 years ago could be dated depending on if it started with any radioactive isotopes or not. This is true if you believe in a creator or not.
Right, so if the ratios are there now, I assume they were also there at creation day one (for the long lived isotopes) So, what about it? They did not get there by decay. So how do you date it?? You have no way of knowing the precise ratios. All you could possibly know, (if God did not again affect things since then) is how much new daughter material got here in 6000 little years!

It is not I who see anything as embedded age! That would be science, who stubbornly sees various ratios and natural processes as the defacto creator. They imagine old ages, and no creation, so that to them it looks old. The isotopes in the rocks and etc are not really old, so it does not look old to me. Only to the deceived. It was not really age in the rocks. It was stuff that they used a godless philosophy to call old.

Nope it's actually the date when the stories about Jesus were written (79 CE, the eruption of Vesuvius).

From astronomical measurements of distant galaxies we know that the "atomic realities" have been unchanged for at least 1 billion years.
OK, but since it is impossible to get ages from radioactive dating or any other natural process (because we do not know when the supernatural may have affected the natural) you need to have another way to show us something was after creation for sure.

I (like everyone else in science) do not deal with supernatural causation.

Given that we have measured the decay rates, we know exactly how much daughter material would accumulate in 6000 years.

So this was after the eruption of Jesus from the grave, OK. So, decades after God returned to heaven, is that the best you got?

No, I do not know that. I do know that godless principles have been projected out into the universe. Remember, though that light moves at the speed at which God wills it to move. That is the actual and precise speed of light. Not only that, but light exists because God said let there be light! That was something like 6000 years ago and no light in this universe predates that, because no light even existed! Looking at light move now at whatever speed God ordered at this time for it to move cannot tell us anything about great ages. Nothing. Cosmology is a complete fraud that is based on false premises. In pretending they can see so far they prove how shortsighted they actually are! They see nothing but some lights and they add godless assumptions piled to the clouds to arrive at so called ages and distances. Everything they base distances and and ages on in the universe is a lie.
I (like everyone else in science) do not deal with supernatural causation.
No, you are too busy used false premises like the 'naturalonlydunnit' to attribute creation to the creator. That is very supernatral and no accident whether you know it or not. Basically science is demon possessed! (much of it). It is demonic to look only at the physical and natural processes and world to determine where man and creation came from.
Given that we have measured the decay rates, we know exactly how much daughter material would accumulate in 6000 years.
How much would accurate in 6000 years would be the outside maximum limit for your dating techniques. And almost certainly it is far far less than that. If God affected things when Jesus was here, or at Babel, or other times, we would not know.

Because the results are wrong!
How do you know they are wrong? You haven't even presented a specific fossil you want to talk about, you're just talking about fossils in general and yet somehow you can claim that these hypothetical dates for the hypothetical fossils are wrong?

How does that work?
Here is a litmus test for the method. Please tell us the date of rocks in the garden of Eden? You do not know. Not even where it was or when it was. In the case of science, I daresay you do not even know if it was! Tell us the nuclear composition as God was creating it? Tell us the ratio of isotopes the second it was all finished? No. All you do is look at it now. Then you assume God did not create it, and then you add dates accordingly. Your method is only valid IF there was no creation, and no God. You want us all to accept that as a starting point and basis and foundational premise and belief.
You can't even present any such rocks, so don't suddenly act like it's my fault because the rocks you can't produce can't be tested.
You cannot measure anything from creation is any way though. You cannot tell us what the Great Spirit Jesus was like and what forces He used to create. You cannot even detect Him today! A better comparison might be twenty blind men in a warehouse all comparing notes on the colours in the building and agreeing it must be blue! No science can see anything regarding creation. Their belief it came about as a result of physical processes that we see is less than laughable.
You are assuming that your point of view is correct and asking me to accept it as the default position.

You must provide justification for that, and you have not.
Like the blind men in the warehouse rubbing their fingers on the walls and smelling them and tasting the paint and listening to the echo of their sandwiches splattering on the wall. Four methods all telling them it is blue. Yet they have no actual clue. No actual ability to determine. No tools that apply. They should just be honest and say 'we don't know'

Worse than this, in the case of science trying to tell us where we came from or how long ago, the blind guys in the warehouse claim also that the warehouse formed by natural causes and was not built!

There are no methods that science has that tell actual ages or read isotopic ratios correctly IF there is a God and creator. So their agreeing with each other is just comedy.
This isn't even a rational response. It's just rambling without any understand of what you claim is wrong, and rejection without justification.

Somehow I get the feeling that trying to have a rational discussion with you about this topic is going to be fruitless.

If you want to continue, please provide support in the form of verifiable evidence that what you have said is true.

That person is me. I am right!
So God personally spoke to you?
I also believe the other people that God told to write things are correct.
And what about when these other people say things that contradict each other?
I also know that science has nothing it can say about it.
Why should it when you've said nothing scientific? All you've done is spout a bunch of claims that anyone can make. Lots of people have believed that they were spoken to by God, and they were wrong. Why should I have a different opinion when you say God has spoken to you?
Why would I call Paul and the apostles liars? Why would I call my parents liars? Why would I call a lifetime of experiences confirming God wrong?
Because they can't be independently verified.
Why would we accept a philosophy that starts off with no God in the picture or calculations?
So you start with the conclusion you want and then try to fit your experiences into your predetermined conclusion.

Yeah, that's a terrible way to find the truth.
I consider people who interpret ratios and such without respect and acknowledgement of the creator and creation to be glorified tea readers. (falsely called science)
You can consider them whatever you want.

But the fact is that if they produce useable and predictable results, your claims they are wrong just look foolish.
By the way, if God used people that could be wrong that makes Him wrong. If He used men that had it so far from what He wanted to say, that much of the core of the bible is wrong, what does that say of the One who gave it through the writers?
So are you saying that you are not a Human?

The Bible teaches the creation of earth is young

You use the terms "billions of years", my question is were you there "No"

You have faith in man's assumptions and I have faith in my Holy Bible

Question for you then: is God's creation, the Earth, worth studying then?

Since you are unwilling to engage openly, we are done.
