Re: Creationist websites
P.S. It is my experience that the Website Creation.com quoted above publishes material that is entirely consistent with empirical scientific method in an accurate manner. Perhaps you could point out some instances where Creation.com is:-
quote:.... often very wrong when it comes to representing actual facts".
Creation.com has the following in their "Age of the earth" page:
Radiometric dating
51. Carbon-14 in coal suggests ages of thousands of years and clearly contradict ages of millions of years.
52. Carbon-14 in oil again suggests ages of thousands, not millions, of years.
53. Carbon-14 in fossil wood also indicates ages of thousands, not millions, of years.
54. Carbon-14 in diamonds suggests ages of thousands, not billions, of years.
All four of these are absolutely wrong and reflect common errors passed from one creationist website to another.
If you want to debate these I'd be happy to oblige--on a different thread. Find one of the radiocarbon threads and post this and I'll show you where each is absolutely wrong.
So much for creation.com, eh?

Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.

Re: Creationist websites
Now, as it was you that requested this information regarding Creation.com, perhaps you would be so kind to reply to Coyote on that topic.
Thank you.
And the response should be on a different thread as I requested. It is off topic on this thread.
