Let me get this straight. I have to believe in evolution as fact before I can accept that the age of fossils can be determined by their fluorine content?
Do I have to believe in evolution as fact in order to accept anything science has accomplished, whether it involves the evolution-creationism debate or not?
How about carbon dating? Schrodinger's Equation? Quantum Leap reruns?
You accept ratiometric dating? This is not a trivial question.
My questions are directed at creationists, and I haven't seen any on these threads that accept radiometric dating.
I am aware that folks like Behe, Denton and Dembski accept an old earth and common descent, but I haven't found any evolution critics on FR willing to stand with them on this.
