Do you deny that the long ages obtained through C14 dating are used to support the theory that earth is very old? I see your point, but you would agree that there is a correlation between the two issues wouldn't you?

The dates obtained through C14 dating can be used to show that the earth is older than YECs claim.
To determine the true age of the earth they are pretty irrelevant since C14 dating is only accurate up to 50000 years.

There are no long ages of the Earth obtained through C14 dating. That's why I suggested to you that you understand radio-dating techniques.
