1. If the Earth and Sun are only thousands of years old, then Darwin's theory of how life on Earth diversified must be false
2. Regardless of what other evidence supports or undermines an old earth, if Darwinism is false, it is therefore not evidence of an old Earth.
unfortunately i would have to disagree with you on this.

Dear mr Enyart,
i do not mind if you would leave it at that, though i think it would be fair (and to create closure for the other participans of this topic) what the reasons are why you would like to leave it at that.
as one one point i would stress you to give your opinion on, is how would you meassure the age of the earth?
That you find issue with an old earth (as i already stated), i do not mind. Even if you have good reasoning to reject 4.6 Billion as an age... it doesn't mean 6000 years is the default.
i want to hear from you, how you would address this task. it does not have to be lengthy, a short describtion should be fine.
this might in the eyes of some give you some credibility, that they do not see you as some lying piece of smegma.
In conversations like these, i assume that the other person is honest and i want to give them the oppertunity to present that
