"Astronomers estimate the age of the universe in two ways: 1) by looking for the oldest stars; and 2) by measuring the rate of expansion of the universe and extrapolating back to the Big Bang; just as crime detectives can trace the origin of a bullet from the holes in a wall."

That is Science, Laddie! It is as certain as the fact that nothing burns forever or that pigs do not fly! The age of the earth and the universe are billions of years apart! Unless you wish to discredit Science and put your bets on superstition and the magical thinking of children. Your choice!
