Old Earth Evolutionists: If the world is so old, then how come it doesn't crash into other planets?

Prominent creation scientist Em Adjineri has recently done a study on the driving habits of old planets. She discovered that old planets crash much more frequently than young planets because as they age, their reaction time and eyesight decline. Also, old planets get smaller over time and because of this they sometimes have trouble seeing over the wheel.

Earth, however, hasn't crashed into any planets despite the fact that it is constantly driving in circles around the sun. The only possible explanation for this is that the OEEs are wrong about Earth's age, and that it's much younger than they think it is. If the earth was older, its orbit would be a lot slower and it would constantly be crashing into other planets or meteors.

    Old Earth Evolutionists are full of rubbish. Their gravity, and their orbitals, all rubbish! Everyone knows that it's turtles all the way down!

    The square of four minus the root of three plus the product of a grain of sand with a drop of iodized salt water the whole divided by three fourth the mass of air on a humid night is the cause why the world doesn't crash into other planets. Oh, I forgot to add the fifth of Jim beam.

    Explanation given to me by a Christian scientist. I suspect he was high on the fifth of Jim Beam.

    The orbit wouldnt' be slower because the Earth's orbit is caused by Sun's gravity.

    We are held in orbit by gravity of our sun.

    Smaller bodies - such as meteorites - DO crash into us a lot.

    However...our entire galaxy IS on a collision course with the Andromeda galaxy.....of course, to humans, galactic speeds are very, very slow.

    omg, i'm so glad dr. adfineri is back to work. earth doens't have any crashes because it lives out in the rural fringe of the galaxy where there's no traffic. it does drive off the road on a regular basis, tho, resulting in wobble.

    Actually, your scientist has fallen into confirmation bias. Younger planets crash more because they orbit their stars drunk and never wear their Orion seatbelts.

    Gosh. You have me there.

    I guess I was wrong about the old earth.

    Thanks for enlightening me.

    You listened to a creationist "scientist" that's your first mistake.
