Re: Pahu, step up to the plate.
You need to do 2 things:
1. State your case, using the relevant cites in the appropriate format to support your contentions.
2. When someone thoroughly dismantles one of your swiped PRATTs, you need to either rebut or concede.
You posted your meteoric dust PRATT as an OP. Fabulous. Matt destroyed your meteoric dust garbage in Message 5.
Rebut or concede?
Ah, but there is a third alternative: ignore and run away. Surely, a tried and true YEC technique.
I also like the question regarding exactly what ages do these 'alternative clocks' yield. Sometimes that ends the conversation, but here, I think we are dealing with a 'Gish Gallop' style of argumentation. Pahu will continue to present a moving target while never answering the growing pile of questions that you present.

Re: Moon Recession
Most Scientific Dating Techniques Indicate That the Earth, Solar System, and Universe Are Young.
Heh, heh... Problem is that these measure something other than the age of the earth!
Tell us, Pahu, exactly what age do each of these techniques tell you?

Re: Moon Recession
What do you think creationists would do if in the future we observe a planet where evolution occurs in a few thousand years? Crap in their pants and say Goddidit?
Edge's axiom: "At some point in the distant future, YECists will claim to have discovered bilogical evolution."

I see your point.But surely you havent studied human evolution to a very extensive point.I cannot accept a transitional form between apes and humans when the british phd lord solly zuckerman,phd charles oxnard,and b.woods and m. collard,All of which are evolutionary paleoanthropoligist.
And? 'When they...', what?
C'mon, Jason, you are parroting here aren't you?
You really have no clue what they say, do you?
Have you ever tried proper punctuation?

Re: Moon Recession = another PRATT
Pahu: Refuted? To refute is to prove (an argument or statement) to be false or wrong, by argument or evidence. The following refutes Tim Thompson’s “refutation.”
Yes, Pahu, refuted. Perhaps someone can contact Tim on this and he can explain in person to you, as he has done here before.
We do know two things about the distribution of the continents in the past, though quantification is virtually impossible. This is the reason for Hanseen's simplification: to show that the current rates of recession are not representative of the past. We know that there have been periods where there was essentially one continent and we also know that there are now more, and larger, continents than in the past. The point being that the rate of recession is much different, probably faster than throughout most of geological history.
And, AFAIK, the moon is not believed to be of the same age as the earth, so there is no need to match ages.
As a consequence the lunar recession clock will not keep good time, even if it did actually measure the age of the earth.

Re: Moon Dust and Debris
...Most Scientific Dating Techniques Indicate That the Earth, Solar System, and Universe Are Young.
...
Actually, most dating techniques indicate that the Earth and solar system are young”possibly less than 10,000 years old.
So, exactly how old do your clocks say the earth is?
