And your dating method of the Channeled Scablands is by fossils in the layer of rocks and the rock layer the fossils are in. Also you validate the belief of old age with radiometric dating, throwing out that which does not fit the required age.

As I thought about it more you are really to educated for your own good. You claim that most things written if not done by a person of a college degree is useless.

Would have you know most of the thing that are in your life were thought up designed discovered experimented upon without a coveted piece of parchment.

Sorry, your post has demonstrated your lack of knowledge about the Channeled Scablands in particular and archaeology in general.

The scablands are not dated by index fossils. They are dated by direct radiocarbon dating of a lot of different things, including geological and sedimentary formations, archaeological sites like Marmes Rockshelter (45FR50) for example, and by various sediments and the materials that are trapped in them. Those can include a variety of rodents and other critters, as well as carbonized plant materials and pollen.

And you have no clue how those of us who use radiocarbon dating work. You have only the creationist websites to rely on. And they are lying to you! They are doing creation "science" rather than real science--and it is entirely agenda driven.

I have studied the fields of archaeology and radiocarbon dating for several decades, and have personally submitted nearly 600 radiocarbon samples.

When you have studied the field as I have then you can feel free to lecture me on how I do my work.

Your religious belief has blinded you to the world around you.

Javier Solana google that guy.

If you have ever read a Bible, that is really read it, then read it again and compare that man to the character in it and the Course of the Jews. IF that is true then............

You stated that, "Your religious belief has blinded you to the world around you."

That is a typical statement of the overly educated. The one who believes himself wiser than God. They like to attack character and intelligence. They are to high and mighty in their intelligence they spent years learning (you can learn the wrong thing) and are unwilling to look at the evidence from any other angle for two reasons, 1 God has an implication if your life is not right with him, 2 spent to much money on education to change now.

Your dating method 1st never has a dated specimen that can calibrate the test. 2nd it is always assumed that leaching does not take place in no matter what specimen, 3rd when the test is complete some one has to interpret what it says, since most everyone that uses radiometric dating does not believe the Bible as 100% true in your field dates of an interpretation younger than required for the outcome expected are not recorded.
