CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Science PROVES the BIBLE is True

Where in the Bible can we read about a leg and cowboy boot found in a concretion?
Where can we read about remains of blood cells in dinosaur bones in the Bible?

A son of God.
How do explain all of the fossil grave yards all over the world unless there was a world wide Biblical flood. They had to be covered with water, mud and debris very quickly, or there would be no evidence of a fossil, things get eaten, and the bones are scattered all around a kill site. Now, can you explain love?

Local floods at different points in history. You know, exactly what has happened throughout human history. If the Mississippi floods, the rest of the world's rivers don't flood at the same time.
If I found night pictures from every major city in the world, would you be convinced that the entire Earth went dark at the same time?
Nothing about them requires the entire Earth to be covered with water at the same time.

Based on what evidence?
Except that the cowboy boot and leg were not permineralized. They were still bone and leather. They were simply covered with a type of rock called a concretion which forms when minerals come out of solution and surround the specimen.

It's called radiometric dating. For example, when a zircon crystalizes from molten rock it excludes lead (Pb) and includes uranium (U). Some of that U is radioactive, and it decays through many intermediates into the final daughter product, which is Pb. We know that this Pb came from the decay of U because the zircon can't form initially with Pb in it due to the charge of Pb. We know what the half life of these U isotopes are, so we can determine how long ago a zircon first crystalized by measuring the amount of U and Pb in the zircon.
As you can see, it has nothing to do with fossils.

It is called a concretion. It is very different from a fossil that is from permineralization, like fossilized wood. With permineralization, the organic molecules are replaced by actual rock. What you get is a rock in the shape of the biological organism that used to be there. In the case of your leg and cowboy boot, they are still bone and still leather. They aren't rocks.

No, it hasn't been disproven. Creationists just like to make this claim.
Since hair isn't a zircon, no it wouldn't be the same method.

I can cite thousands of peer reviewed geologic papers from the last 10 years that use U/Pb dating of zircons. The method has not been disproven, and it continues to be used.
Zircons came from molten lava, as already mentioned. We get our knowledge from studying zircons and the elements that make them up.
