EVIDENCE FOR A YOUNG WORLD D. Russell Humphreys, Ph.D

Here are a dozen natural phenomena which conflict with the evolutionary idea that the universe is
billions of years old.

The numbers I list below in bold print (often millions of years) are maximum possible ages set by each process,
not the actual ages. The numbers in italics are the ages required by evolutionary theory for each item. The point is
that the maximum possible ages are always much less than the required evolutionary ages, while the biblical age
(6,000 to 10,000 years) always fi ts comfortably within the maximum possible ages. Thus the following items
are evidence against the evolutionary time scale and for the biblical time scale.

Much more young-world evidence exists, but I have chosen these items for brevity and simplicity. Some of the
items on this list can be reconciled with an old universe only by making a series of improbable and unproven
assumptions; others can fi t in only with a young universe. The list starts with distant astronomic phenomena
and works its way down to earth, ending with everyday facts
