Son, I know a bit about radiocarbon dating.

This post you made contains nothing but creationist's dreams. It is not science, but a ridiculous attempt to distort science to a particular result. (Its not only wrong, but spectacularly wrong!)

Tell me, how many scientists who actually do radiocarbon dating have signed on to this?


the group met and delineated a five-year plan of research to explain the apparent disparity between conventional and biblical dates.

That's a laugh. Most biblical scholars don't even believe what you are peddling. Check out these links:


ReligiousTolerance.org Carbon-14 Dating (C-14): Beliefs of New-Earth Creationists

The American Scientific Affiliation: Science in Christian Perspective Radiometric Dating: A Christian Perspective by Dr. Roger C. Wiens.

This site, BiblicalChronologist.org has a series of good articles on radiocarbon dating.

Yes father, I think you do. But I think there are other people who also DO radio carbon dating who disagree with you. You may call them ignorant, thats fine with me. But I don't think you can dismiss their academic credentials so easily.

Maybe we can replace dreams with challenges.

Very nice attack. But the devil is in the details.

1) How many scientists during Galileo's time actually supported him ? ANSWER : A MINORITY

2) How many scientists during Jenner's time believed him ?

Since we are into links, might as well provide some to balance the ones you provided :
