[[Method: Radiologically date meteorites.
Observation: Meteorites are > 7000 years old.]]

Can you prove they are the dates that show up? No- they can’t- so their assumption is just that- an assumption, and hterefore nothign is disproven- Radiological dating methods are known to be accurate only to about < 7000 years- beyond that they are not accurate nor can they be proven to be accurate and MUST rely on assumptions- Are you saying then that their assumptions trump our assumptions then? On what basis then?

Radiological dating methods exist that have a greater than 7,000 year accuracy.

For example
potassium-40 > 100,000 years
rubidium-87 > 10,000,000 years
thorium-232 > 15,000,000 years

numbers are from memory and may be slightly off.
