“Actually nuclear decay and radio dating are fascinating labs that can be taught to fairly junior science students.

Dating through other means such as geologic formations probably take a bit more background but still is something high school students can understand and college students can actually do the work for.”

There are unverifiable, untestable philosophical assumptions that must be taken on faith for even those to work.

The debates in the RF Open threads can get very heated.

Lots of little snide low down stuff going back and forth, which was what that thread was about.

I don't think it could have gone any better if I had been here 10 years.
