Science is divided on the age f the Earth, some say it is millions of years old and others say it is 6024 years old.

Renowned scientists such as Brian Cox, Kent Hovind and Ken ham have theories that seem to contradict each other. Both have valid arguments but we live on an Earth with finite resources so, if the Earth is millions of years old I would like the 'so called' old Earth scientists to answer these questions:

Why has the air not run out? If the Earth was millions of years old we would have used it all up by now.

Why has water not run out? Even after 6000 years there are shortages of water, surely if the Earth was older we would have used it all up?...Are 'Old Earthers' saying that the Earths inhabitants did not drink water before the Earth was created 6024 years ago?

Where are all the waste and the dead bodies? Mmmm, did this and they just disappear...

I think most of you will agree that this is 'Checkmate' old Earthers.

Sir; as far as the water part of your question is concerned, I was reminded of something I read about, a year ago, about it having rained non stop for two million years. It meant, of course,that test match cricket was impossible, because the outfield never dried out; on the other hand, it was an ideal time for swimmers to practice for the Olympics.

Fish were able to swim about without worrying about ending up fried in batter and covered in gravy, then served with chips. It was also a good time for sea cruises.

After the shower of rain that lasted two mllion years finally ended, an immediate hosepipe ban was introduced to save water. And the privatised utilities still increased their charges at 5% above the rate of inflation.
