We have a winner.

You cannot accurately carbon date anything more than a few thousand years old. And it has many weaknesses due to carbon "pollution" that is introduced in so many environments.

How many is a 'few?'

I'm interested in your "Science rules when its on my side" explanation for why the conventional 50,000 year upper limit (and thats conservative) is faulty.

Science is not the enemy. Scientific zealots hell-bent on discrediting the bible no matter how ridiculous their claims are the enemy.

I rather enjoy science.

So...you agree that a 'few' is 50 and that the Biblical account of a 6-10k year Earth is entirely incompatible with science? Since science isn't the enemy, after all.

You assume that I'm drunk on the 6k creationist kool-aid.

You can keep thinking that if it makes you feel better, but it's just not the case.

However, I DO think that it's ridiculous to not belive in a "God" but be willing believe that our planet is made of 18 billion year old stardust from when the universe "hatched" out of nothing and that human beings decended from fish who descended from random chemical compounds that organized themselves into the most complex mechanism on the planet, a cell, these compounds were of course formed from the runoff of wet rocks which apparently materialized from nowhere.


You can call me what you wish, but I just find it a little odd that I'M the diluded one.
