So my buddy Kevin and I were grilling at his place in Phoenix a couple Saturdays ago and he pulls out his phone to show me something. He swears up and down that the earth is only 6,000 years old, and his proof was a screenshot from some random Facebook page with 400 likes. I asked him where they got that number and he goes "it's just a fact, look it up." I pulled up actual geology stuff on my phone right there, showed him rock layers and carbon dating, and he told me those are all fake because scientists have an agenda. Then he hits me with "well how do you explain the Grand Canyon then" like that's a checkmate. I just stood there holding a spatula. I love the guy but he said this with a full chest while his phone was at 8 percent battery. Has anyone else had a friend go all in on something like this and did you just let it go or keep pushing back?
