Radiometric dating

Russ Humphreys demolishes criticism of creationist RATE research project Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth

Billions of years of radioactive decay should have produced more helium in our atmosphere; while helium should have escaped zircons.

Argon diffusion data from the site where the RATE project gathered its helium diffusion data confirms the earth is young

All radioactive dates are based on assumptions so you can get any age you like by changing your assumptions.

Conflict over the date of the Mungo Man fossil shows that evolutionists do not automatically accept laboratory dates, but interpret them within an evolutionary framework.

How the explosive, 1980 eruption of Mt St Helens demolished radio-isotope dating.

Microorganisms discovered in salt are reportedly 830 million years old, but this goes against all the laws of chemistry and molecular break-down

Carl Wieland interviews Romanian geologist and world cave authority Dr Emil Silvestru

See how they have been answered many times and understand the key concept to dismiss dating doubts

Paleomagnetic measurements in archaeological material belonging to the time of the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem may well lead to accurately calibrating carbon-14 dating

‘Earliest life’ fossils of Bicellum brasieri were buried by Noah’s Flood and not one billion years ago.

If radiometric dating is objective science then why do researchers disagree so widely over the results?

Ways they make conflicting results tell the same story

When the numbers don’t add up, it’s time to examine the methods and the philosophy behind them.

Analysis of wood samples from Tertiary rocks yielded significant carbon-14 indicating the wood was only thousands of years old, not millions.

Scientists release their calculated ‘age’ into academic space, never sure if it will float or be shot down like a balloon.
