How would you live differently if your view of the age of the earth turned out to be wrong?

For me it would have huge consequences for my daily life. Mostly because I would have to come up with a different career… Both my fields, astronomy and neuroscience, in their entirety support the old age of the earth and the evolutionary paradigm. All the successes of these fields testify to the validity of this paradigm. If that would somehow turn out to be bollocks, there would be no fields of research left to work in. Also, I would have to stop using GPS and the internet because these are based on the same “laws of physics”, which (in that hypothetical scenario) would have to be extremely untrustworthy.

This perplexes me.

If it turned out that God indeed created Adam as a fully-functioning adult - that is, without having him go through conception, gestation, birth, and maturation to adulthood - would we say that all the knowledge we have of human anatomy and procreation would thereby be rendered useless or untrustworthy?
