Recently came across an interesting 'summary' article regarding population statistics and the age of the Earth.
The two main competing ideologies -- <10,000 years (Biblical Creationism) vs. billions of year (Materialism-Evolutionism) -- each proposes their own models and equations. Here's the thing ...
The article sums the main problem of the MEM with one question: "Where, pray tell, are all of the imaginary people that should be in existence if evolution is the true history of humanity?"
The Materialistic-Evolutionistic Model (MEM) demands far more ad hoc assumptions, corrections and 'miracles' than does the Creationist Model (CM). And that is exactly what Materialists provide in their population models - parameter values and correction factors galore to make present population numbers 'fit'. E.g., do they need millions of people to vanish so as to reduce the population? Simple - just insert more famine, war, epidemics and natural catastrophes into the model and - voila! - the population number is adjusted to whatever value they need. Hey, who's gonna know or verify what happened "375,000 years ago", right?
Just more of the typical non-refutable, non-falsifiable nature of "scientific" Evolutionism.
By comparison the CM is quite simple and uses numbers that are fairly well established through several centuries of records of actual population statistics. What do Materialists-Evolutionists say to this? Why, ignore it - of course! - since it doesn't support their ideological-religious position.
