EN1076 how old is the Earth

Our creationist in chief is a proclaimed believer in the Pentecostal fairy story which tells all that the Earth is just 6000 years old. This means most of our science can't exist and our Aboriginal culture is only 6000 years old instead of the 65,000 years or more it is understood to have existed.

Because our MPs from all sides refuse to answer questions I put them into petitions in parliament.  This normally means they have to be answered within 90 days.  A couple I am still waiting for answer about are the ones about mobile phones, blocking the signal while in cars and an audit of S44 compliance from parliament 44.

This petition is available for signatures until 13th of November 2019.  All you need is an email address and the ability to fill out a captcha test. A link to the signature page is here.   The touching bit of this petition is a call for the creationist in chief to tell the world how old the world is in parliament.

Petition Reason

Some members of parliament freely acknowledge they are members of branches of Christianity that believe the planet Earth is just 6000 years old. Some have declared this publicly in filmed media events. A belief such as this removes much that is science from their understanding of our world and is catastrophic for Aboriginal culture reducing it to just 6000 years for the generally accepted 65,000 years.

Petition Request

We therefore ask the House to have parliament, preferably the Prime Minister as leader of the government, to declare the Earth is probably 4.5 billion years old and Aboriginal culture is at least 65,000 years old.

Signatures are being accepted until 13 November 2019.  The link is here
