The same creationist arguements are recycled time after time without those advancing them considering facts which refute them.
In the creationist failure to understand radiometric dating, they ignore the nature of isotopes and deny uniformtitarianism (Uniformitarianism is the assumption that the same natural laws and processes that operate in the universe now have always operated in the universe in the past and apply everywhere in the universe.).
Without these basic assumptions and facts, no discussion is possible.
“Uniformitarianism is the assumption...”
Yes, yes, but what if your assumption is incorrect? It is an untestable hypothesis, after all.
It needs to be answered: How did Carbon-14 end up in diamonds?

“Simultaneously during the RATE project, John Baumgardner discovered that diamonds contain measurable concentrations of carbon-14 that date them at less than 50,000 years, assuming conventional concentrations of atmospheric carbon-14 when they were formed. The question naturally arose—what was the source of the carbon-14?”
The eruption of Mt. Saint Helens in 1980 blows big gaping holes in your views of uniformitarianism - the bigger the catastrophe the more impossible for evolution to explain these non-conformities.
Incidentally this free online book was also fist published in 1980. Maybe you should read the ‘other’ side of these arguments if you want to improve your debating skills?
