RC dating totally depends on the idea that the present ratios of carbon types in the air have held good from the time in question to now. Thinking that ratio would be the same prior to something like the great flood is a very large act of faith.

Obviously you haven’t bothered to read the article.

When I read my Bible it specifically says that things were created in a certain order.

Starting with the chaos of the big bang
Moving on to the point where light came into being
Then solid matter condensed from the ‘liquid’ plasma.
The solids and fluids were gathered and separated
Plants came into being
Then swimming creatures
Then (dinosaurs which became) birds
Then mammals
And finally, that Johnny come lately, Man

Pretty much the same sequence that Physics and TOE have.

The main difference between the stories the Bible and Modern Science tell is the timescale. I don’t know how long one of God’s days is, but I do note that the Seventh Day doesn’t end with “And the evening and the morning were the nth day” like days 1-6.

I assert that we are still in the Seventh Day as the Bible never says it ended...

>>>I voted to make pi easier

The formula is totally wrong anyway and urgently needs correction.

It’s not Pi r square. The correct formula is Pi r round. Cornbread r square.
