Still nothing?


Okay.


Let's try a different tack: you didn't feel that maybe there was a faulty premise or assumption when they took samples millions of years apart and got essentially the same age?

Would be more of a smoking gun if the ratio within the group was consistent with the "secular" estimation, but just smaller.


But no, carry on telling others they need to "literally" read the whole article.

Why would I read the entire article when it's main assertion is so easily disproved. If you had posted an article that said the sky is red, but 95% of the population is just colorblind I would react the same way.

On an ironic note, this post is incredibly hilarious in light of this thread.

But the question still hasn't been answered. Can you actually feel it coming in the air tonight?

People who think carbon dating is an exact science are the same people who think global warming will destroy the country in 2015.

Pretty much anyone who puts their faith in "science" is an idiot. Science today is little more than asking for grants and posting on Facebook, nobody has a clue about anything.

Very interesting article on carbon dating. The Earth may be much, much younger than scientists think.


First of all, carbon dating isn't used for such long timescales.

Second, several independent methods converge on more or less the same answer - 4.5 billion years. Not just radioactive dating is involved here. If it were just one method, maybe. But several leading to the same conclusion? Uh-huh.

Third, your site isn't exactly an objective source.

Only people with a religious agenda use these terms. I didn't even have to see the source to know it was biased bull shite. It's amazing that in the year 2017 there are still people who don't know that fossils are made of stone.

Odd that oxygen and hydrogen weren't asked how they felt about carbon dating. Considering the valence that holds them together is essential for life as we know it. Must be some tranny homo thing.

Do you guys think, given the massive amount of problems within the article, that the OP still believes said article is accurate in it's way of dating the earth?

The results of the carbon-14 dating demonstrated serious problems for long geologic ages. For example, a series of fossilized wood samples that conventionally have been dated according to their host strata to be from Tertiary to Permian (40-250 million years old) all yielded significant, detectable levels of carbon-14 that would conventionally equate to only 30,000-45,000 years “ages” for the original trees.


wow, that is amazing!

We can see hundreds of millions of light years away, so I think that's all the proof I need to know that the article is full of shite.

One Key to article is inference that thousands = less than 6,500.


You would love to share observations where they select data point coal from permian and get #notOld from that coal.
Got to see some outside peers confirm that test result. Just saying it is not enough.
Language is also tricky. At one point they allow 100,000 years for c14 dating but at the end jump from #NotMillions to ("thousands", therefore confirms 6,000).
Is it evil to lie in the service of the mission? Sounds Islamic.

Quibble old miss shark. Is this not so?:
We can see light that began hundreds of millions of years ago. No one "sees" to a point in space such and such distance of light years away. The light is here registering on eyeball receptors and brains and techno-gadgetry.
