    In regards to your link Dr.B...

    "but scientific reality is not a matter of opinion and cares not for the majority vote"

    "Listening to her gives me the heebie-jeebies. About the astronomy standards, she says "...there are different estimates [of the age of the Universe]... they will be taught about 12 - 14 billion years ago, but this leaves it open a little bit to discuss how many billions."

    There is NO FACT about the age of the universe, there are different theories and dating techniques but nothing is concrete. Whoever wrote this article sounds like a smug idiot.
