Description
Compact Time builds a scientific case that the Earth, with all its living creatures, is actually thousands of years old, not the millions so widely accepted.
This unconventional book takes readers on a journey of discovery into the realm of time - re-examining the very history of the Earth. It highlights the fallacies of methods currently applied to timing Earth history and then draws attention to the radiocarbon dating technique. Radiocarbon decays away in only thousands of years and undecayed, radiocarbon permeates the whole geologic column; it's even in fossil dinosaur bones. This implies a compact timescale of only thousands of years for the whole span of life on Earth.
Historical, geological and paleontological lines of evidence supporting this new theory are examined. The implications for understanding human history and the religious significance are assessed within Compact Time.
