"Plunge Away!"

Not near as bad as assuming that counting up begats in Genesis will give an accurate age of the Earth. Multiple samples and using multiple radioisotopes reduces the error to 30 to 50 million years over a 3 billion year period. Even the error in the sample is many times longer than your young earth assumptions. And yes, there are wide divergences in the results of radiometric dating of similar rocks, but those divergences are still greater than your young earth assumptions, and the methods are based on physics that is proven. You cannot say the same about your bible based guesses for the young earth. You have absolutely no basis in physics.
Another is the undeniable proof from satellite data that the continents are moving and the high degrees of similarity in the geology of eastern South America to the corresponding areas of Western Africa and Scotland to the eastern US. This rate of drift corresponds to at least 200 million years since those areas separated.
I understand it well enough to know that evolutionists would like to cover-up millions of year old anomolies w/ Mt. St. Helens to call them xenoliths (or some such) and claim that it doesn’t expose radio-isotope dating for the fraud that it is.
The study that started this controversy was flawed. he used only one radioisotope that is not accurate for samples less than 10000 years old. Look at http://skeptoid.com/episodes/4146 for more information. When dating rock, as I said before, multiple samples and multiple methods are used to reduce error.
I understand Einstein’s work well enough to know the starlight shows apparent age now actual earth-days age.
So, you are saying that light coming from Alpha Centauri is not 4 years old or that from Andromeda Galaxy is not over 2 million years old? You again are showing your ignorance of physics.
I understand nuclear physics well enough to know that the power comes from splitting the uranium (or other radioactive) atoms rather than the radio-isotope decay rates for same.
Radioisotope decay is an observed phenomenom that can also be dericed from the basic equations of nuclear physics, the same physics that allows us to make nuclear weapons of varying explosive power and radiation output and nuclear power plants that can be run predictable and safely. You cannot separate the two different items and say one is false and the other is not. I understand when modern day scientists calls something that can not be observed nor repeated ‘science’
?????? what are you trying to say here??
I understand how to read and research both sides of an argument before I go spouting off and labeling others work as crap.
me too, which is why I called your arguments crap
Right - except you did not even bother to read any of the 101 evidences for a young Earth and universe. Instead you ssume my entire argument from the Bible. Which you apparently have also neither read nor tried to prove/disprove. Science stands on the shoulders of giants who mainly professed a belief in the Bible.
You are as full of assumptions as the theories you support. Are you sure the continents have always moved at a uniform speed?
I’ve read that stuff before and it has no basis in physics. The assumptions are baseless and cannot be verified, and it has no consistent mathematical basis.
That speed does vary slightly over the eons, as shown from the samples taken from various places around the globe where the seafloor is spreading.
Is there beer in "blasphemy hell"? And is the scotch aged for at least 160 million years? That's all I want to know.
That's why we bought them mud tires!
YEEEEEEHAAAAW!
Conjecture not science. What is happening now can only be assumed for the past.
Ha - in my post 42 I reference creationscience.com where Dr. Brown who worked as an evolutionary scientist found major problems with long-ages and macro-evolution.
Center for Scientific Creation - In the Beginning: Compelling Evidence for Creation and the Flood
http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/IntheBeginningTOC.html
Written by Dr. Walt Brown Ph.D. who explains the physics of his hydroplate theory and shows the mathematical formulas. His latest 8th edition has increased over 100 pages so you may need to part w/ approx $30 in order to get all the details but the online book resource describes how all of the puzzle pieces in archeology, geography and astronomy fit together to explain a wide range of purplexing problems found within many scientific disciplines.
If you were to read it, you might then begin reconsidering how much trust you are placing in modern-day science that can not explain sea fossils on top of all mountain ranges, why the mid-oceanic trench circumnavigates the globe in parallel with all the major mountain ranges, the physics required for bending, and folding granite rock formations, formation of salt dome, etc.
The list simply combines all the major facets of science to explain how all of the jigsaw puzzle pieces fit together. But you would need to set aside all of your prejudices for the conjectures of modern-day science. Are you not aware that plate tectonics has major flaws that are simply unanswerable?
"Plunge Away!"
Strangely enough, I did just buy some mud tires.
($100.00 for two, mounted on good rims, from a guy with a very think Eastern European accent. Russian I think.)
It was already like that when I got here!
Honest!
[I have *no* idea WTH this is all about but *I* didn’t do it]
Salamanders can walk through fire and emerge unscathed.
In ancient times, asbestos was thought to be “salamander hair”.
I’m good to go.
Y’all, OTOH, are probably screwed.

Somebody flipped it over and peeked?

Seems “Greenbow” got the ZOT!
He got raptured. Or zotured.
Either way, we’re all left behind.
Nope.
I checked.
Still got both my right and left behinds.
Well, anyone who quotes the Honorable Doctor is A-OK.
There’s a band here (Cambridge MA) called the Gilded Splinters - .
Rockish with originals and some classic covers.
Wow.
Brutal planet.
*shrug*
I still have shopping left to do so I’m okay with that.
