Your 'final decision'? That's an interesting choice of words. At any rate, be sure you make an informed 'decision', with real-world evidence to support it.Thanks --- I'll let you know my final decision, and why, when I get one.
Oh, please. You think I would go through all this if I didn't have an interest in you reasoning things through for yourself? Besides, I'm also in it for the children.(Assuming you're interested.)
Obviously you don't know your chemistry history. The elements that Peter is talking about is Plato's Four Elements (stoicheia): Fire, Air, Water, and Earth. The modern idea of elements didn't come around until Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier in the late 19th century. Then Dmitri Mendeleev (my favorite chemist of all time) came up with the Periodic Table in 1869.That's probably true --- but Peter mentions what is today the elements on it.

I know *I'm* interested.
Sorry, I think I missed something.This is my favorite explanation to date.
It's lengthy, and has a lot of science in it.
The part about condensation nuclei particularly interested me.
I love to see science explained from a Christian perspective.
I'm sorry, are you trying to assert something or is this another brand of 'creationist humour'?
I bet you would, as a meter is just over 3 feet long. Though I guess that does put you at just under 5 ft tall. (1.5*3.281[SIZE=-1]≈ 4.92 ft)I guarantee you --- if I was walking on cooling lava --- my footprints would look like I'm 1.5 meters tall, too!
I wonder what you do believe then.I'm trying to assert something --- I don't believe it.

CSC said:"the standard answer has been that primarily the Colorado River carved out the Grand Canyon over millions of years. If that happened, wouldn’t you expect to find a gigantic river delta where the Colorado River enters the Gulf of California? It’s not there. " (source)
Until the early 20th century the Colorado River ran free from its headwaters in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado south into Mexico, where it flowed into the Gulf of California. Significant quantities of nourishing silt from throughout the Colorado River Basin were carried downstream, creating the vast Colorado River Delta.

Seldom would a science journal publish a paper more than 6 pages in length. (That also prevents the hydroplate theory, pages 102–302, from being published in a journal.) (SOURCE)
CSC said:For example, a worldwide flood would uproot and bury preflood forests. Afterward, less carbon would be available to enter the atmosphere from decaying vegetation. With less carbon-12 to dilute the carbon-14 continually forming from nitrogen in the upper atmosphere, the ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 in the atmosphere would increase. If the atmospheres ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 has doubled since the flood and we did not know it, radiocarbon ages of things that lived soon after the flood would appear to be one half-life (or 5,730 years) older than their true ages. If that ratio quadrupled, organic remains would appear 11,460 (2 x 5,730) years older, etc. Therefore, a radiocarbon year would not correspond to an actual year. (Source)
I don't put my sword up for nobody; but in this case I'll make an exception.
But I promise you, the first time you cross the line and contradict it, I'll put it out and use it to divide you soul and spirit and joints and marrow.
I wonder what you do believe then.
Do you believe in the power of nuclear weapons?
X-rays?
Radiation?
Atomic theory?
Gamma radiation?
Light and the electromagnetic spectrum?
Do you believe that alpha-particles can be ejected by an atom?
How about the aurora borialis?
The science behind all of these is the same science which describes radioactive decay, and is use as an estimate of age.
I bet. Let's look at a couple of these "science" explanations!
Of course this is not accurate.
Oh it gets better!

In response to why Creationists don't publish in leading science journals:
Of course this is also quite incorrect.
