My guess was just that - a guess. I have no idea how old people generally think the universe is. I believe that in reality the universe is < 10,000 years old, but that's coming from a creationist's point of view.

Keep in mind that as I told Lukas, I'm not attacking anyone. I'm following my own harebrained train of thought, and I'm posting as I go. That, and I'm following a lot of different hypothetical situations - like the existence of aliens, etc.
