Another way to put the question (as Plato did): If natural phenomena are solely the products of ceaseless change (i.e., "evolution"), then how can anything ever be anything at all?
Right to the heart of the matter, dearest sister in Christ, thank you! Indeed, I aver that the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics in the natural sciences is like God's copyright notice on the cosmos.

Also keep in mind, “steady decay rate” is only ONE of many assumptions one must make in order to “date” rocks radiometrically. Three others are assumption of “initial” state, contamination of the sample, or leaching out of the elements/atoms in question.

There's nothing "accidental" about mathematics.... It didn't "make itself up"; that is, it has a "given" structure.
Or so it seems to me!
God's Name is I AM. [IOW, perfect, absolute, eternal BEING.]
