You are absolutely within your right to believe what you believe. Have you
considered that many ancient civilizations all have a flood myth that depicts a
global flood? The epic of Gilgamesh (Sumarian) for example. Noah's flood in
Genesis. Could it be that a catastrophe that extreme could possibly skew the
carbon dating process?
Cheers,
Bryan
