  • Carbon dating is a common method used to determine the ages of fossils and other materials, but carbon14 deteriorates quite quickly. How can it still be detected in things that are supposedly millions or billions of years old?
    With the expertise of ICR geologist Dr. Tim Clarey, host Trey Bowling investigates different dating methods used by scientists to see if the data tells a different story than the one told in textbooks.

I know Kent Hovind has speculated the Earth must have had increased atmospheric pressure and increased oxygen, like a hyperberic chamber. Air bubbles in petrified sap show increased oxygen levels. And experiments with hyperberic conditions I believe have resulted in larger plants and fish. Would increased carbon help in this as well?

      We're talking about 10 to the power of 12 here. If my counting of the zeroes is correct, this would yield an error of 0.00000000005%

      ​​Google basin modelling to see how the fossil fuel industry successfully uses radiometric dating to achieve results.
      Typically, YEC misleading information about radiometric dating involves casting doubt on the stable nature of radiometric decay, or casting doubt over ratios of parent/daughter material, or casting doubt due to possible contamination.
      All of these things have either been refuted or are known about. Various tests have been conducted on decay rates to see if they vary as a result of severe changes in temperature, pressure, etc. Any variations are minuscule. To all intents and purposes decay rates are constant. They are part of what we know about physics.
      Parent/daughter ratios. Once an igneous rock cools and crystallises the radiometric clock starts from the position of 100% parent. As it decays, the daughter element is formed. The hourglass analogy often used is an accurate one.
      If a pure sample taken from an area below the surface with no identified faults/cracks etc, is used then you can guarantee 100% parent material at formation therefore a reliable ratio of parent/daughter isotopes at the sampling date.
      The presence of faults such as polonium halos would indicate not to use that area for sample. The conditions that lead to possible contamination are known and avoided.
      A margin of error is built into all radiometric dating anyway. With Uranium 235 - Lead 207 dating, uranium 235 has a half-life of 4.5 billion years with a margin of error of a few million years. Now consider the furore over the Mt St Helens results where 10 year old rock was sent off to be tested by YEC "researchers". If you try to test a 10 year old rock using Uranium235/Lead207 dating, given the margin of error, what do you think the result will be? Will it enable bad faith actors to claim that the rock was either at one end of the margin of error, or at the other?
      So a 10 year old rock, tested using an inappropriate method could be wildly misrepresented. The vast majority of weird results reported turn up on YEC sites, because they want to discredit radiometric dating, because they will not admit what the fossil fuel industry knows, that the earth is around 4.5 billion years old.

      Do you drive to places?
      Cars are known to have mechanical failures from time to time.
      There will be a few anomalies from time to time. The vast majority of them can be explained by contamination or incorrect sampling methods. Mostly these are done by YECs in an attempt to get some mud to stick. The Mount St Helens scam being an obvious one.
      Consider this
      One of the supposed "flaws" is the radioactive decay rates. YEC "scientists" know they can't argue against radioactive decay. But they want you to believe that radioactive decay was much faster before the flood. What this essentially means is that the earth would have suffered the equivalent of 5000 trillion megatons of damage in the space of at most 6000 years, rendering the earth still radioactive enough to fry all life on earth.
      Then there's the problem of compressing Pangaea to Here plate tectonics into 6000 years, resulting in a whole lot more frying of the planet.
      Then what about the problem of all the earth impacts we know have happened? That's a whole bunch more heat, dust and debris.
      It's basically called the Heat Problem. YEC "scientists" are still working on it....
      This is why we KNOW (and I can't stress that enough) that all of these videos trying to prove a literal biblical timeline of 6000 or so years are just so much bs. Sorry to harsh your buzz, but the earth would still be an uninhabitable mess if it weren't billions of years old.

This margin of error represents the known minor fluctuations in decay rate that may occur. Now consider if someone in bad faith, trying to discredit radiometric dating because it proves old earth, took a sample of 10 year old rock from Mt St Helens, didn't tell the lab where it came from, and asked them to date it using Uranium/Lead dating. Would the +/- a few million years margin of error be used as an excuse to misrepresent the date as being incorrect, do you think?
      Ask yourself who has the greater incentive to use the correct results in radiometric dating, the fossil fuel industry which stands to profit from successful finds, or the YEC ministries who want to discredit the process because it disproves young earth? It's really very simple, and we shouldn't have to keep debunking this tosh, but somebody is throwing money at this, so we have to keep calling them out.
      In short, radiometric decay rates are constant to within tiny margins of error, the parent/daughter ratios of pure samples can be trusted and the possible sources of contaminants are known. Don't use samples where there are identified faults, such as polonium halos.

Look how years ago when we were much less advanced then we are now scientists use to find CURES for sicknesses - now we are light years ahead and you never hear about cures anymore only treatments - I wonder why that is?

      Probably a bigger impact on the carbon balance is a drastic change in green vegetation mass.
      So the Flood scrubbing the planet of trees and plants would severely disrupt the carbon balance.
      That’s because healthy plants help filter carbon out of the air.
      If volcanoes are erupting and spewing ash and smoke, not having plants will cause C12 to be high and give a false long “age”. (Due to a relatively low C14 : C12 ratio).
      It would take years, even decades to recover from this.
      Likewise, desertification could have a similar effect, such as what happened to Egypt.
      Also, an ice age could do it too because of burying large areas under snow.

Add as much time as you want and it's still impossible for different kinds of multicell creatures to emerge from some type of primordial goo or to evolve beyond their original creation state. There is no new information being added to any creature on the planet, the reverse is actually true as can be shown. Micro evolution does in fact occur within kinds and we can see it but there's no proof of macro evolution as they claim to be the case. They do this as if it were fact when even they know the mathematical impossibility of their claims in most cases. There is no way to get DNA from random chance as it is a definite language. One we are still woefully ignorant of despite claims over 15 years ago now that they had cracked it.

The decay rate issue has been tested to destruction, in conditions of extreme temperatures and pressures to see if the rate alters. It doesn't. To all intents and purposes it remains constant. Any variations are infinitesimally small, but as a precaution all the different methods have their own margins of error built in to compensate for this.
      WRT parent/daughter isotopes,
      we know that the parent clock starts at 100% and the daughter clock at 0%.
      Any anomalies that show up in the testing and can usually be explained by geological events such as reheating and subsequent recrystallization of the rocks. It is therefore important to know the location the sample came from to determine if there are any known events that might compromise the results.
      The lava mentioned at the bottom the grand canyon could have been re-plasticised by geological events.
      He is lying when he says they almost always get the dating wrong.
      This is full of conjecture.
      But also bear in mind that since these charlatans know these issues, they can work them to their advantage.
