Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

ALTHOUGH Richard Milton's estimate of 170,000 years for the age of the Earth is more reasonable than the 4.5 billion years of evolutionists, it is still way out, according to the Bible, which puts the Creation as being no older than 6,000 years.

There is scientific evidence to support this - the decrease in the speed of light, the rate of decline of the Earth's magnetic field, the rate of the solar disc's shrinkage, the paucity of helium and micro-meteoric dust in the atmosphere, the 'unwrapped' arms of spiral galaxies, the residual warmth of the moon (and the mere half-inch of dust on its surface), the thickness of Saturn's rings, the continued existence of short-term comets, the rate of mineral deposition into the oceans, the fallacious premises of radiometric dating, dendrochronology, population statistics, the dearth of human artefacts older than 6,000 years, polystrate fossils, the non-organic theory for the origin of oil, pleochroic haloes, etc, etc.
