...Again, I cite the math:
This is the issue. People without expertise in the field have no way of evaluating this stuff. They might think they have - but most likely because they don't know enough to know what they don't know.

Science is not determined by what you can fool the public into believing - that's politics.

Science is determined by real scientists with real degrees in the discipline being considered working in the peer review community.

Every creationist claiming, explicitly or implicitly, a false expertise is far more telling than anything.

The only other serious contender to test claims is big corporation money. In fields like geology that produce predictions that are immediately commercially useful the money goes where the science works. When creationist geology really works BP and BHP will be snapping them up - the fact that they don't shows how empty their work really is.

Credentials of Dr. Robert V. Gentry:

"Robert V. Gentry (born 1933) is a nuclear physicist and young earth creationist, known for his claims that radiohalos provide evidence for a young age of the Earth. He is a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.[1] ... Gentry received a masters degree in physics from the University of Florida, and thereafter worked in the defense industry, in nuclear weapons research. ... he entered the doctoral programme at Georgia Institute of Technology, but left when he was refused permission to work on the age of the Earth for his dissertation.[2]

...He continued to work on the subject at home using a small microscope, publishing his results (minus his creationist conclusions) in prestigious scientific journals. In 1969 while Gentry was affiliated with an Adventist college in Maryland, Oak Ridge National Laboratory invited him to use their facilities, as a guest scientist, in the hope that his work on radiohalos might lead to discovering super-heavy elements. This relationship was terminated as a result of his participation in McLean v. Arkansas.[1]"

He's a real physicist, which is is a massive improvement on some of your previous characters.

But still:
he is only expert in his specialities.
And
what he has to say is to be evaluated in peer review.

There are several other "alarm bells" ringing in there too. If the list is meant to establish credentials limit it to papers in proper peer reviewed science journals.

Dare to point it out and he starts spamming your PM box as well.
Why do you not go ahead and directly quote what I sent to you in its entirety, I am sure others would be most interested in it, same goes for B.B.

I'm still waiting for you to show me the relevent bit of canon law that says what you claimed it does.

Information you claim to be privy to about the Catholic Church that the average priest is not.

Both vast pages of cut and paste.

Neither anything citing a bit of canon law.

Here's an idea, if you want to convince me that canon law say something, how about you quote and cite the relevent bit of cannon law, say, a paragraphs worth, and leave all that other nonsense elsewhere?

Because at the moment, I'll be honest, I suspect you are one of the legion here who makes ridiculous claims and then endlessly obfuscates when challenged on them. Of course, I stand to be corrected, a simple, direct quote would do it.

I'll make it easy for you
http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/_INDEX.HTM

There, as they say, is the horses mouth. All of canon law, right there.

So, where's the bit that says what you say it says? Title, chapter and canon please?
