Carbon dating used by experts, backs up Bible claim. The same carbon dating that, according to the Bible-believing creationsists, isn't accurate. Can't have it both ways.

Umm, OK, sure.

So whats that got to do with the vast majority of Christians who accept carbon dating for *both* cases?

The Bible *is* a reliable historical document in those texts clearly not alegorical or mythical, such as its historical records in Kings, Samuel, Chronicles, Joshua, Judges and Exodus.

It will be interesting to see secularistgs catch up to that without diverting the discussion to OldEarth Creationism as though that were typical of Christian views on Science and biology.

They certainly dont speak for the Roman Catholic Church.

I certainly agree with you on the historical relevence of the Old Testament books after Genesis. I do not, however, believe in the literal Genesis creation.
