Part II from Rosenhouse's blog is a must read: Report on the Sixth International Conference on Creationism, Part II, especially the two slides at the top presented by Andrew Snelling, the most prolific creationist writing on dating issues. Apparently he recognizes just how big a botch creation scientists are making of science.
​
This is actually pretty weird. Snelling actually says just what has been said here many times ("Even nearly five decades after The Genesis Flood we still have no comprehensive model of earth history..."), but still never considers the possibility that the reason is because what they're doing isn't really science.

Re: Irrelevant to the topic garbage
Incredibly enough, this slide show was apparently presented at the conference. Jason Rosenhouse's Part I says:
​
Jason Rosenhouse writes:
​
A fellow named John Pantana got up to tell us about God's pharmacy. To anticipate in advance your natural question: Yes, he's serious. I know that because someone asked him precisely that after his talk, and he bluntly answered in the affirmative. Read it and weep:...
​
What's surprising is that Rosenhouse spoke with conference organizers who described how much submitted material was rejected because of low scientific quality, so if this slide show was found acceptable, it is difficult to imagine how bad the rejected material must have been.
