Aren't you moving the goal post in this statement? Every creationist statement in the past has been that Earth and the rest of the universe is 6,000 years old (more specifically around 5,700). Aren't you guys moving the goal post? If your goal post is this flexible, why not just conform with the scientific community?
Oh, by the way, it's arctic. The last time I saw someone repeatedly making this mistake was when I was in 6th grade wink wink.

Care to explain to me how this makes sense? Could you also reference the russian study you are talking about?

Could you give a link to the pdf file itself? I'm having a terrible time trying to read it.

Nevermind. Link to pdf file.
Added by edit again.
Could you also explain to me why the following thing you said made sense?

If the russian study would of found nothing older than 6,000 years or everything older than 9,500 years it would of been a problem with taking the bible literally 9,500 years fits fine. 2 peter 3:8.

If the C-14 dating would of come back 6,000 years or younger then it would of conflicted with 2 peter 3:8.
You didn't answer my question. I know what 2 peter 3:8 says. Where did you get the numbers 6k and 9k?
Regarding the article, did you even read the article? The article is about the Holocene Optimum, a period when the climate was warmer in the summer and colder in the winter than at the present that allowed the forests to migrate northward.
If you are referring to the date, let me quote the section where it says this.
quote:
The first forest appearnce in the Seyaha River valley can be dated to about 9000 BP, according to the oldest date in the Seyaha valley (No 6 in Table 6).
This does not tell us that the Earth is around 9000 years old. It does tell us approximately when the forests began to migrate north.
Again, did you read this article at all?

I still don't get it, but I'll take your word for it.
Aren't you going to address about the article? Did you read the article? Did you understand what they were talking about? If anything, some elements in the article confirm global warming, something that creationists are well known to deny.
