Yes, there are quite a few studies showing that the dating of the rocks above and below a biological find are cherry picked to show a specific age already decided upon.

Yep.

Every bit as evil as cherry picking Bible quotes to justify, say, slavery (to name just one thing that's been done with).

I am not quite sure I understand your comment or what you were trying to say to me. I do not think I have ever cherry picked a Bible verse to support slavery. The people who “did” have died and are long gone, the people who “do” still own slaves and live in the Middle East.

Conversely, the practice of slavery as detailed in the Bible is diametrically opposed to the practice of slavery as done in the South. Those ministers wrested scripture for their own political purposes, and ultimately suffered the consequences of their actions.
