DATING METHODS: SHOULD IT BE LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT?, Chapter 9

Conclusions . . . Did You Know? . . .

Evolutionary philosophy had invoked huge ages decades before radioactivity was ever discovered, let alone used to date rocks.

Radiometric dating is the only physical process ever cited to validate the enormous evolutionary ages.

The long ages of radiometric dating are based on scientifically invalid assumptions.

These same assumptions are not tolerated in any other area of scientific work!

Radiometric methods cannot independently date anything. A result is only as good (or bad) as the preconceived age fed into the procedure.

The many other physical processes showing younger ages are routinely ignored or explained away in journals, textbooks, and media programming.

When corrected with historical data, radiometric methods yield young ages.

Most rocks (sedimentary fossil-bearing rocks) cannot be dated radiometrically. Evolutionists acknowledge this!

Sedimentary rocks and their fossils cannot be dated at all! Evolutionary philosophy assigns huge "ages" to fossils (and the rocks containing them) based on the assumed stage of evolution they represent. This is "reasoning in a circle."

This circle of reasoning has become very intricate and complex, with evolutionists all over the world agreeing by consensus to a uniform system of evolutionary "dates." Majority consensus is thus confused with truth!

Radiometric dating is sufficiently complex to deceive the average layperson into feeling that he can never understand chronology. Chronology is thus abandoned to evolutionary philosophy, yet evolutionism has never truly used radiometric methods to reach any conclusions about age!

Radiometric methods are very effective "window dressing" for the foundationless glass house of "evolutionary time."

"Evolutionary time" and "geologic time" are mythical.
