How does soil iodine interfere with the counts? What does this have to do with the decay rate of 14C?



Why do they need to be factored in? You might as well claim that the number of clowns in Serbia do not get factored in to radiometric dating. You need to show that they would have a significant impact on dating before you can complain about them not being factored in.



What do you mean by this? Are you talking about mutations caused by solar radiation? What?



Then why don't you present some evidence instead of making empty allegations.

Premature posts. You are right.

No it doesn't. Soil iodine interferes with carbon counts.

Please elaborate.

Decay rates are not constants. They are relative constants, geologically. As I said, celestial events, and quantum perturbations do not get factored in.
They most certainly are. The only radionuclide that is used in dating that this affects is 14C. That is why a calibration scale is used and constantly updated as more accurate information becomes available.

Anyone with deep pockets can hire a team of scientists to vindicate a theory. "Science" is not a unitary entity; it took until the late 20th/early 21st century for the Standard Model to recognize neutrino oscillations. Neutrinos are weak force; specifically the thing determinant to radiation counts detailing record.
The only oscillations measured are unique to the position of the earth during its orbit around the sun. And those oscillations are just that oscillations. They are small and average out over a years period

As I said, celestial radiation is not factored into evolution.

Nor does it need to be.

Quantum chromodynamics is not factored into evolution.
Nor does it need to be.

Extraterrestrial influence isn't factored into evolution.
Nor does it need to be.

Radiological bombardment isn't factored into evolution.
Nor does it need to be.


"Science" may have received grant money to substantiate the theory of evolution, but that doesn't mean it is the unique solution.
Now, let's get back on topic. Please provide an explanation for the fossil record without evolution.

Etc...
None of these are factored into evolution for two reasons.

1. There is no evidence of any of them.

2. They don't have anything to do with evolution.

Oh, and by the way it was already published in 1985 in NASA journal: Wormwood. I was privy to that info via scribd on the Columbia server. This is OLD news.
Yeah! Nibiru! I haven't seen this one in a while.

These two things have come to you;
Who will be sorry for you?—
Desolation and destruction, famine and sword—
By whom will I comfort you?
