ICR, AIG, and CRS now also admit the evolution of new species (but they say it isn't "real" evolution, ignoring the meaning of the word) So they have modified their religion a bit over time, to accomodate reality.
I'm merely showing you that life was not created from nothing; it was brought forth by the Earth as God intended.
No. Neither of those say 'the whole earth' or even suggest it.
Theologians who know more than you or I, have said the language reflects a parable. Which is why a literal worldwide flood has never been Christian orthodoxy.
No, that's wrong. It's why so few people believe in a global flood today; the evidence doesn't support it. Would you like me to show you why?
You didn't ask. Would you like to learn how it works?
As you learned, the variation in rates, (if they exist; the changes are so small, they might be instrument variations) would not change billions of years to millions of years, much less thousands of years. And of course, if it somehow did, the massive increase in radiation from earth, air, and water would have killed all living things.
And yet, it accurately identified the date of the volcanic eruption that buried Pompeii.
Doesn't matter. That's the funny thing about reality. It keeps right on going, even if you try to ignore it.
No, you merely cited a place wherethe claim was made, but no evidence provided. If you do find it, by all means, show us. Checkable source.
Water contains radioactive elements, as does air and earth. Can't get away from it. If you accelerate radioactive decay by a factor of tens of millions (which is what you'd need to get from billions of years to thousands of years) it would have killed all living things.
For example, it was tested by dating the age of the volcanic flow that buried Pompeii. It's easy to record how much an element decays over time. That excuse won't work.
A researcher in Rome presented this finding. However, no one to date has been able to reproduce it. So there's a problem. Morever, if the atmosphere of the Earth had experienced such huge pressure waves, very little but microbes would have survived.
Clay, shale and slate are rocks that do not allow water to pass through and are therefore classified as impermeable. Unlike permeable rocks that absorb water, impermeable rocks can support and change the beds of rivers and streams, are prone to erosion, and can prevent the flow of groundwater. The latter is commonly referred to as an aquiclude. Composite rock materials such as concrete or brick are porous and allow for the seepage of water, unless treated with a water-proofing substance.
Substances That Are Impermeable to Water
Nope. You can't use sedimentary rock for radioisotope dating. I bet, if you thought about it a bit, you'd realize why.
See above. I'm not trying to make fun of you. But you don't understand a lot of the things you would need to understand to make a reasonable conclusion.
Yep. It's not all that complicated in principle. The devil is in the details. There are entire books written about things that you can do to mess up an analysis.
1. All radioisotopes decay at known rates.
2. This is calculated as half-lives, the time it takes for half of the isotope to decay to a daughter isotope.
3. The relative amount of the parent and daughter isotopes will give the date at which the rock "closed"
4. If there are more than two datable isotopes in the rock, one can check the results by an
isochron.
That is, if you plot the relative amounts of three parent and daughter isotopes on a graph, the three points should lie on a straight line.
The analysis is straightforward. Argon-39 has a half-life of 269 years. Which means that in 269 years, half of it will be gone and converted to Potassium-39. In 538 years, three-quarters of it will be gone and converted to potassium, and so on.
