Dr. Robert Gentry, a Seventh-day Adventist scientist, made an extremely important discovery many years ago. After much research, in 1976 he published his findings in the prestigious, elite, peer-reviewed journal "Science" and turned the atheistic scientific world upside down: parent primordial Polonium-218 radioisotope halos contained in the Earth's basement granite rock layers. What does this have to do with disproving the evolutionary time table, which claims these layers of granite were formed by the slow cooling of molten rock over millions and millions of years? We must first understand what radioisotope halos are before we can understand why Dr. Gentry's discovery is so detrimental to the evolutionary time table and, ultimately, the theory of evolution which rests upon it:
All radioactive elements go through a continuing process of decay until they reach the end of the process and turn into lead. At the beginning of the process, a "parent" isotope, such as Uranium-238, decays into a "daughter" isotope, and after a time that daughter isotope decays into another daughter isotope and so on until the end of the decay chain is reached and the radioactive element finally becomes inert lead.
It's what happens during the decay process that is so important to Dr. Gentry's discovery.
When a radioactive isotope undergoes decay, either alpha or beta particles eject from atomic center of the isotope and shoot outward concentrically in all directions. If the particles are alpha, the high energy release causes visible damage to the surrounding crystalline structure of the rock in which the radioactive element is embedded - beta particles are too low energy to cause any damage. The distance the alpha particles travel outward from the isotope's atomic center varies from isotope to isotope, thereby producing varying distances of damage, seen as rings or "halos"; hence the name "radioisotope halos", much like if one slices a boiled egg in half and a cross section view shows the center yellow yolk, the white area further out, and finally the outer shell. It is by examining the distance of each halo ring from the atomic center of the isotope that scientists determine which isotope is responsible for the formation of each ring. Below is a picture of a parent Uranium-238 isotope halo and its associated daughter isotope halos on the decay chain:
Scientists with almost unfathomable precision have measured the "half life" of each radioactive isotope, so they can make a pretty good guess about how long each will exist before it fully decays into the next daughter isotope on the chain.
Still here? We're almost done!
One of these isotopes on the decay chain, Polonium-218 (Po-218), has a half life of only 3.1 minutes - which means it will fully decay into its daughter isotope in the chain in less than 30 minutes. The shocking discovery made by Dr. Gentry is that he found parent, primordial Polonium-218 halos, which means the Polonium-218 isotope that caused them was not the result of isotope decay from Uranium-238, but began its existence as parent, primordial Polonium-218, as evidenced by the lack of isotope halos occurring further up the decay chain!
Therefore, because of the fleeting existence of Polonium-218, the only explanation for how parent primordial Polonium-218 halos could possibly form is that a parent Polonium-218 radioactive isotope suddenly sprang forth into existence within molten magma, immediately followed by the instantaneous hardening of that molten magma into solid granite whereby trapping the isotope inside, followed by an onslaught of alpha particle "radiohalo" damaging of the newly hardened granite as a result of this parent, primordial Polonium-218 isotope decaying into its daughter isotope over the next few minutes - the entire process requiring completion in MERE MINUTES, NEVER IN MILLIONS OF YEARS!
"By the Word of the Lord were the heavens made,
and all the hosts of them by the breath of His mouth...
For He spake, and it was done,
He commanded, and it stood fast."
Psalms 33:6,9 KJV

Dr. Gentry's findings on radioisotope halos were published in the top, elite, most authoritative science journals in the world such as Science, Nature, Annual Review of Nuclear Science, Earth and Planetary Science, Geophysical Research Letters, and many more. After the journal Science published his findings in October of 1976, Dr. Gentry got a letter from a professor at LSU:
"Dear Dr. Gentry,
I have been patiently scanning the 'Letters' section of Science since the publication by you and your colleagues on your findings of radiohalos. The silence has been deafening -- I think it can be interpreted as 'stunned silence'. Your results will not greatly trouble the engineer...but the impact on the science of geology, in possibly changing accepted views on geologic time, will be felt many years."
Very truly yours,
Raphael G. Kazmann, Professor
"Stunned silence", brothers and sisters. The atheistic scientific community was blown away by Dr. Gentry's findings and for months sat in stunned silence with no way to conjure up an alternative explanation to defend their false evolutionary "millions of years" timeline. Almost 50 years later, not a single scientist has been able to publish an explanation in any of these top, authoritative, peer-reviewed, elite science journals.
Oh, there are a few shills among the atheistic scientific community like John Baillieul who climb onto the internet and throw a few stones at Dr. Gentry, but none of their articles have ever been published in any top, elite, peer-reviewed science journal. Their work has been characterized as "spurious" and attempts to "hoodwink the unwary". They know their bogus claims don't even begin to approach the level of a serious challenge to Dr. Gentry's legitimate scientific work, but they can't stand the embarrassment of nearly 5 decades of deafening silence, so better to cowardly post an article on an internet website that isn't peer reviewed, isn't fact checked, isn't regarded by anyone accept atheists and foolish theistic evolutionists who wouldn't know an isotope from an ice cream sundae, and pretend they've found a "chink in the armour" - even the complicit editors of these elite journals know that publishing their desperate claims on elite peer-reviewed journal platforms would do extreme harm to the entire atheistic pseudoscience agenda because these claims would be swiftly exposed as fallacious.
Dr. Gentry boldly challenged these cowards to public, peer-reviewed debates, but no one has ever stepped up to the challenge. The stunned silence continues. When this great man of God passed away in 2020, I'm sure there was much rejoicing among the atheistic pseudoscience community. His Wiki page is shamelessly biased against him and his extraordinary accomplishments, but in a time when a lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth is finished lacing up it's boots, that's to be expected. But, praise God that it's true today as it was when Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 13:8 KJV, "We can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth" and I pray what I've written here is to the glory of God and for the protection of those who would otherwise be seduced by the satanic lie of evolution.
