Young earth?

But we DO have a good approximation of the age of the Earth. That one is not "an unknown". That's a "pretty reliable known". When scientists say the Earth is 4.5 billion years old, they don't mean EXACTLY 4.5 billion years. They could be out by a couple of hundred million. It's a ballpark figure, based on several different observations from different fields of science that (coincidentally?) happen to give the same rough figure.
That said, you seem a wiser man than a year ago.

I don't know if he will talk himself into atheism. But he will at least lead into a more rational view of other realities of this universe.
Perhaps one day he will believe in evolution since it is so backed by evidence. But even that doesn't mean he will give up a belief in God. As we know many christians believe in evolution so its possible.
Another good video.

Well, we don't have NO idea of the age of the earth. The reason people say that it's 4.6 billion years old is because the only evidence we have points to the earth being that old. So it's not definite, but it makes most sense to assume that the earth is 4.6 billion years old.

Yes, Young Earth Creationism is just ridiculous. Honestly, nothing Kent Hovind says is true. Pretty much nothing that man says is true lol, he's just full of lies.
I'm glad you're open-minded enough to speak the truth about many commonly held beliefs. Very impressive. =)

this is comical lol

A lot of YEC stuff is goofy like all animals (including TRex lol) ate plants. It makes their entire case look silly. Hovind reads a lot into the text. There was a flood, but the extent YEC makes it is exaggerated beyond belief. And you're right...there is a lot of stuff we don't get in the bible. For example, wouldn't you like to see how Mary raised Jesus? That would be helpful to parents! Personally, I think God knows we can't even get the "Believe in Jesus part right" so he cut it short. ha

You are the category of christian that I do respect. You can see past the YEC bullshit, and you actually employ logic. I do disagree with some of your other videos, but this I do like.

He gets it more wrong than that, since he's obsessed with one of the worst English translations available. The description isn't of the animal's tail at all. It's the animals genitalia. The word translated at 'tail' is actually 'penis' and the phrase isn't 'sinews of his thighs' but 'cords of his testicles'. That does sound like a VERY strange way to describe an animal, though.

Noah's ark doesn't make any sense regardless of whether or not you put dinosaurs on it in your version of the story.

I can't say I disagree with much (if any) of this video.
