I don't think evolution posits the age of anything. Archeology I'm sure has something to say, fossils and all that. Now evolution is happy to posit a reason for the changes in animals noted by archeologists. But if all archeological evidence is disproved and a creation date is found to be exactly 5000 years ago, evolution is still valid, because life has still changed in that time.
Anthropology might also have something to say about how long man has been around. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code. C code run.
