The earth's rotation is slowing very slowly every year because of tidal friction. The moon's distance from the Earth is increasing 2 inches a year. Working back, would mean the moon and earth would be touching only two billion years ago. Or starting as a realistic distance of separation, if the earth is 5 billion years old the moon would be out of sight by now. The sun's diameter appears to have been decreasing by about 1/10 % a century. Scientists have been watching for over a hundred years and the evidence is conclusive. Every hour the sun is shrinking about 5 feet. If the sun is shrinking 1/10% per hundred years, then it is shrinking 1% a millennium. If the sun existed only 100,000 years ago it would have been double it's present diameter, and only 20 million years ago the surface of the sun would be touching the Earth. The earth is supposed to be 4.5 billion years how does that work.? Yes there is a scientific part of Intelegent Design.

Only 8,000 years ago the earth's magnetic strength would have been equal that of a magnetic star, and a million years ago it would have been impossibly high. The earth has never been a star so its magnetic field could never have been that strong. > According to the Big Bang, all the planets are moving apart.

And any other religious theory of development of the earth that has science behind it also could be included, but there aren't any. There is no science behind the bible nor any other ´holy´ theory.
