      @Omar20v i believe there's a degree of error for sure, but if you think this all popped up 4000 years ago, you're nuts. Even if you believe in a creator, there's no where in any holy text that says the earth is so young, at least not without making man-made guesses that hold the same degree of error as carbon dating. You can believe both, study your own holy book, I did.

The earth was created on the 6th "day" of creation, a day is defined by one roughly 24-hour rotation of the earth, how could 5 previous "days" exist if there was no heavens or earth to constitute a day at all? The only confused one here is you.

      I wore contacts for years, although I don't anymore. It can take a while to get used to putting them in your eye, but the trick is to not place it directly on your pupil. You will find that very difficult.
      When putting them don't use a mirror. Don't need it. Just lean over the surface of where ever you are, use your other hand to open top and bottom eyelids, look to the left or right and put the contact on the opposite corner on the white of the eye. Then use your finger to move it around the eye area so it's not sticking, then position it in the right spot. When removing them just do the same thing.
