"I recently received a Carbon-14 date at 7140 BP (Before Present, defined as AD 1950).

"Can you tell me how this date is so in error?

Easy. Carbon-14 years are shorter than Biblical years.

"ps. The site had no evidence of a flood.

All the evidence was washed away by the flood.

The only successful conspiracies are undetectable because all evidence is covered up, like the ET's removal of Kennedy's body.

"All the evidence was washed away by the flood."

Noah's Oak was said to be built out of wood. So some evidence floated away.


There is another carbon dating method called Dendrochronology.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendrochronology
Excerpts:
"Dendrochronology or tree-ring dating is the method of scientific dating based on the analysis of tree ring patterns"
...
"Fully anchored chronologies which extend back more than 10000 years exist for river oak trees from South Germany (from the Main and Rhine rivers). A fully anchored chronology which extends back 8500 years exists for the bristlecone pine in the southwest US (White Mountains of California)."

More than 10,000 years back!

By the way, Noah just carried animals. What happened to all the plants?
