I find it a rather interesting demographics study to find that some those that are interested in the unfolding of technology are so embittered by science that they grasp at any loop hole in the evolutionary process. It seems like cutting off the nose to spite the face.

Careful Bryan your upsetting the Darwinists. Their fragile theories can't handle the truth.
The reality is they continually flog these dates to support their religion, atheism. 

They can make up any fairytale they want I just wish they would quit trying to call it science when it's actually science fiction.


Antartica [sic] daiquiris [hic!].
That's some proof.
She wasn't always a mother.

I don't see the difference. 

Both side of the debate are fixated on exogenic origins for life. Why can't people accept that it may have actually arisen here?

On the flipside, they also both have the same eschatological views: an Earth consumed by fire.

Finally, each refuses to recognize the canonicity of the others' sacred scriptures.

than some magical being snapped his finger and all life was just here.

Half life and rate of decay are not theories they are fact, though the accuracy of measurement leaves much to be desired...

And not to start a biblical debate.... But there isn't a scientist I know that wouldn't love to disprove the above facts... how many preachers would dare dispute the bible?

easy there fella, go back to church now will you!

Wow, didn't take long for a wacky YEC to show up commenting on this story, did it?

im calling bull on this one...

there are no good dating methods... They do NOT know how old the earth is... each method of dating relies on two things ... a fixed amount of starting substance and a fixed rate of decay... somthing we Know doesnt happen.

When you find a miners cap in an old mine...that has become fossilized and using three dating methods...get three different answers ranging from 100,000 years to 6billion.... the mine was dug 50yr ago and the fossil matched the equipmant they used in it.

Life started...they admit it they don't know

Theories are theories and just that don't confuse it with science...

So could it be that Hoyle and Wickramasinghe were right after all?
