It only takes one "counterexample," to disprove the theory of an Old Earth. As with any logical proposition, one contradiction disproves the proposed rule.

Potential counterexamples to the theory of an Old Earth include:

  • the moon is receding from the Earth at a rate suggesting it would have been too close billions of years ago
  • the massive Great Lakes are receding too rapidly
  • the Earth's magnetism is changing at too fast a rate
  • the existence of inland salt-water lakes, such as Mono Lake and the the Great Salt Lake, suggest a recent global flood
