Re: Carbon Dating EXPOSED!

Created? Out of nothing in the atmosphere? Carbon is stuff like coal. It doesn't exist as free carbon in the atmosphere. Besides, why should carbon 14 be created right up to the moment the plant dies but stop being created after that? Admit that the whole concept is some liberal claptrap.

Re: Carbon Dating EXPOSED!

Your argument is based on the fallacious premise that no new Carbon-14 can be created. In fact, this happens all of the time in our atmosphere. The age of the universe does not conflict with the half-life of C-14.

I think you're confusing Carbon-14 with Carbon dioxide. There is no evidence for Carbon-14 being present in the atmosphere. Moreover, if any Carbon-14 exists at all it must have been created by God 6000 years ago and therefore it can't possibly be dated beyond the First Day of Creation.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The errors of your so-called science are overwhelming. If you'd only read the Bible and see its infallible truth you would understand how creationism is the most logical approach to these things. Why do you hate Jesus so much?

Re: Carbon Dating EXPOSED!

Created?

Yes, though "formed from other components" would be more accurate.

Out of nothing in the atmosphere?

I never said the phrase "out of nothing". Carbon-14 forms when Nitrogen-14 is struck by a neutron, which then ejects a proton.

Carbon is stuff like coal. It doesn't exist as free carbon in the atmosphere.

Nitrogen does exist as a gas in the atmosphere...in fact over 75% of the air we breath is Nitrogen. As Nitrogen-14 is what forms Carbon-14 when struck by a neutron...

You can see where I'm going with this.

Besides, why should carbon 14 be created right up to the moment the plant dies but stop being created after that?

Carbon-14 is created in the atmosphere; not in plants or animals. As long as respiration is occurring, the organism is taking in Carbon-14 from the atmosphere, so that the concentration of the particles will be the same inside the organism as it is in the atmosphere. When the organism dies however, respiration stops and Carbon-14 no longer has a way to enter the organism. At the point the levels begin to drop relative to the atmosphere.

It's very easy to understand.

Admit that the whole concept is some liberal claptrap.

I'd be lying if I did that.

I think you're confusing Carbon-14 with Carbon dioxide.

I am not.

There is no evidence for Carbon-14 being present in the atmosphere.

It can be detected by the constant stream of electrons being given off as Carbon-14 undergoes Beta decay.

Moreover, if any Carbon-14 exists at all it must have been created by God 6000 years ago and therefore it can't possibly be dated beyond the First Day of Creation.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

That's not how science works.

The errors of your so-called science are overwhelming.

Actually, if you took the time to learn about science, you'd see that most of the "errors" you are referring to don't exist at all.

If you'd only read the Bible and see its infallible truth you would understand how creationism is the most logical approach to these things.

Creationism isn't scientific in the least though, as it involves having your unshakable conclusion already set and then trying to find just the evidence that supports it.

Real science looks at the evidence, then tries to find the conclusion. Creationism does it backwards.

Why do you hate Jesus so much?

I don't hate Jesus. Please don't project onto me.

Re: Carbon Dating EXPOSED!

I love the way you idiot Christians THINK you know science, when you truly, truly don't. Carbon dating does not work on the assumption of ANYTHING, science does proof, not assumptions. And believe me, Carbon dating does work. I would ask somebody to explain it to me, because I KNOW that you don't know, but you'd just trot off to a wikipedia page and find a pre-written one. You Christians hold false hope in your fake God, and you think that means you don't have to prove or validate anything you say, because God and the Bible can do it for you. Come back when you learn pre-school science and talk to me you idiots.

Or you just leave, and don't come back. The good people of LBC have been here far longer than you have had a heartbeat. Nobody asked you to come with your weak theories and false ideas of men. Keep them to yourself little one.

Re: Carbon Dating EXPOSED!

Carbon dating doesn't just contradict God's laws, it also contradicts the laws of science. According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, if all the carbon-14 in everything is constantly going in half, then half all the carbon-14 from everything must constantly be winding up somewhere else. Have you seen all this carbon-14 piling up everywhere? No. No-one has, and half of all the carbon-14 from everything would be a pretty noticeable site. Therefore, according to 100% true and accurate Christian science, either it's staying put or it never existed in the first place. Either way, it has nothing to do with dating anything or anyone.

Please quote one reliable scientific source where it says that "carbon-14 is constanly going in half". It's not like that, part of it periodically decays into nitrogen-14 by giving up a neutron. About 74% of our breathing air is nitrogen. Guess where does part of that nitrogen comes from?
I'm sorry, I fail to see the contradiction. But what do I know, I'm just a 2nd year physics graduate student, I'm sure you guys have a more extensive knowledge about atom physics, right?

Oh no way; we bow to your acumen!

Can you share your knowledge on lack of causality in cases of the Big Bang theory and Heisenberg’s Evolution (Copenhagen interpretation) with us, oh wise one?

We have God's knowledge, it is in KJV1611. If you accept Jesus, He will share the spiritual beauty of it all.

Re: Carbon Dating EXPOSED!

All this talk about physics, paleontology, chemistry and other scientific babble is so pointless

Have you ever once heard a scientist tell us about how JESUS CHRIST died for our sins on a cross?

I rest my case.
