Quoted for truth. Creationists take heed.

It is naturally radioactive (think potassium-argon dating) and some official somewhere had ruled that the hazards were just too high.
Bananas never got ruled on, to my knowledge.
My trivia question: What are the three most radioactive things in Saskatchewan?
Answer: uranium, potash and people. (I would also accept bananas.)

You don't seem to realize that human witnesses are what you rely on for all your knowledge. Forensic data is no different, it still has to be interpreted by human beings.
You're missing a word there: it has to be interpreted objectively by human beings. The Christian points out the Muslim's biases, the Muslim points out the atheist's biases and so on. When the Christian biases are removed, creationism evaporates.

I wonder if we are still smoldering?
We're aging. After Percy is no more, has ceased to be, is bereft of life, rests in peace, is an ex-admin, etc. then what? Will Admin Jr. keep up the site for those of us who are still pining for the fjords?

Gee whiz, you poor atheists have to argue with unscientific creationists.
You misconceive. We're not here to argue with creationists or other know-it-alls. We're here to make sure that creationist and other know-it-all ideas don't go unchallenged. We don't expect creationists themselves to understand that creationism is nonsense and we don't expect know-it-alls to understand that they don't know it all.
