BTW this does NOT apply to evolution, which is taught as fact even though it has never been obeserved, measured, or repeated, despite numerous attempts to force mutations in fruitfly populations and create life in a bowl. Evolution itself as an idea has "evolved" from slow and gradual changes, to rapid ones - which would be nearly impossible to prove, as the changes are rare and rapid. Lamarckianism and recapitulation theories have come and gone. And the strangest thing, to me, is the fact that paleontology serves as the date measuring rod for geological forms, even though the ages of the fossils are at the very best, a guess, based on the unprovable assumption of evolution. Carbon dating only proves useful back to ten-thousand years.
Do you admit that there is great cause for doubt regarding evolutionary theory? It's as though they start with the a priori assumption that "the Bible can't be true because it's a fairy tale", and then go on to attempt to explain reality otherwise, effectively writing a tale of their own.
A lie. See post 199.

Another lie. Large numbers of fossils have been dated radiometrically.

More like 50,000 years; but we have U/Th dating, K/Ar dating, Ar/Ar dating, Rb/Sr dating....

On the contrary, it's as solid as the second law of thermodynamics and the periodic table.

I do science. I'm not interested in the 3000 year old cosmological theories of a small tribe in the middle-east, any more than I'm interested in the hundreds of other alternative creation myths.
