In the arid, sun-soaked northwest corner of Australia, along the Tropic of Capricorn, the oldest face of Earth is exposed to the sky. Drive through the northern outback for a while, south of Port Hedlund on the coast, and you will come upon hills softened by time. They are part of a region called the Pilbara Craton, which formed about 3.5 billion years ago, when Earth was in its youth.

This is a lovely story that showcases why reasonable people don't believe "scientists" that bring us this horseshit that they claim to be evidence of evolution.

The North American continent can't be over 10K years old in it's present configuration because of erosion clocks like Niagra falls, and yet this spot in Australia has a spot 3.5 billions years old, neither covered and buried like North America's fossils nor eroded away by 3.5 billion years worth of time.  Only a Moran could believe this crap.

All I know is, that we as a race know very little about the planet we live on. It's all guesses based on tiny scraps of million+ year old evidence.

Shit, our tiny snapshot of climate data gives us no fucking idea of how the world has worked and how it will work in the future.

And you realize the earth literally has layers. The upper portions have eroded away leaving the pre Cambrian at surface. That's literally billions of years of material that was on top, eroded away leaving the older material exposed.

Technically, in its "present configuration" it can't be more than 10 seconds old, since the configuration is constantly changing. 10 seconds a go a piece of rock was washed off somewhere.

But what was Niagara falls doing the ice ages? The multiple ice ages?

You have it wrong.  I don't believe in evolution.  Evolution is the best answer I've seen to how life is the way it is on Earth.   I'm willing to consider other options if someone can either disprove evolution or give me a better theory or Theory.   Look at plate tectonics and the way the land masses have moved around on the planet over the millenia.  It's quite possible some isolated areas are much older than others.

Ah, the age old game.  "Who to believe on the intent"

todays topic is -fossils in Australia-

our choice of who to believe
A.) scientists on site with PHDs published in a scientific journal and years of expertise in their feild.
B.) American farmer anonymously posting on a gun forum.

really take your time on this one, might be the wild-card we've been waiting for when some random yokel disproves science...or maybe still believe the scientists.

to the OP-  what if, erosion is exactly why they're able to see those rocks now?  As in.  There was some shit on em, then rain and shit happened, and now you can see it!

I could suggest you look at the erosion rates of the falls and where it started, how far it has come and what happens when it reaches Lake Ontario, but I doubt that you think about such things.

If we take what you're claiming as true (which I don't) and North America must be less than 10,000 year old because erosion is so fast- how did it develop at all?  I.e.  errosion is super fast, tetonic plates causing rise and land masses is very slow.  Shouldn't we all be under water?  You're theory hinges on erosion rates of a river going over a fall.  How fast relatively is say,  the AltiPlano in Peru eroding?

The Theory of Evolution is like those stories they tell on COPS that always change whenever they show the suspect some evidence he didn't already know about

That is also true in this case, it is a story people tell to justify their unbelief. Romans 1 says the invisible things from the creation of the world are clearly seen being understood by the things that are made so that they are without excuse and 2 Peter 3 says that in the end times people will be willfully ignorant of creation and of the flood.

No one with half a brain denies change over time. The argument is always full of fallacy of equivocation. Did the eohippus become a quarter horse? Well, yeah. Did a soup of non-living organic chemicals suddenly become living bacteria by information coming from noise, of itself?
That flies in the face of every observed and tested principle in the history of science, but otherwise intelligent people believe it, because they hate God.
It's also the most circular argument ever. Basically, "It obviously happened, because life exists." How? "Well maybe this, or maybe this other way." And they start with a premise of, "There is no God, so it must have happened somehow else." Well where did you discover a priori there was no God?" Science!
