Re: Dating Method
Hi,
And you talk about us christians not checking our sources.
You do know that you didn't provide any sources for your claim that:
scientists tested the Grand canyon floor and found out it was 3.5 billion years old. but then they tested the top of the grandcanyon and they found out it was 45 Billion years old. Also, three layers of the canyon floor had been on the top. A rockslide threw it down.
Sources please?
Brian.

Re: Dating Dinosaurs
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
My post was purely to point out the irony in the Creeationwise's claim that Christians are derided for not checking sources, whilst he hasn't even provided a source.
Oh, you provide a lovely example of the great creationist trait of selective quoting.
From your link:
Although it is too early to make definite statements regarding this stunning and wholly unexpected find, the evidence seems to indicate the T. rex fossil is”well, young.
From your post:
Even to the untrained eye, the tissue samples look as if the animal died recently. . . The evidence seems to indicate the T. rex fossil is”well, young. Young as in just centuries-old, certainly not an age of millions of years."
I am interested as to why you have merged two different paragraphs into one, and why you left out:
Although it is too early to make definite statements regarding this stunning and wholly unexpected find
So, when the article was written it was "too early to make any definite statement" about the find, has a definite statement been issued since or is this just more childish sensationalism put into the public domain for gullible creationists to swallow?
As for ICR, you would be better quoting from Hans Christian Anderson!
Brian.
