What about dating really young fossils?

Well many of my dates sank like a stone.

Another great example of AIG lying because they know that Biblical Christians are gullible and easily fooled.In the previous example I showed you how they cheated misusing radiocarbon dating to measure something older than the limits of measurement for that technique.This link is an example of them cheating the other direction, misusing K-Ar dating to date something younger than the lower limit for that method.From the lying link to AIG you provided: Well no shit.The lower range of today's K-Ar technology is around 200,000 years, some of the very best systems may read down to 100,000 years.The people at AIG know that. Read the age of something that is 100,000 years old and you will get a reading of about 100,000 years using today's very best methods and equipment.Test something that is 10,000 years old and you will get a reading of 100,000 years.Test something that is 1,000 years old and you will get a reading of 100,000 years.Test something that is 100 years old and you will get a reading of 100,000 years.They knew that before they did the tests.They were not looking for truth but rather the answer they wanted.But this case is an even greater example of them lying.One thing that happens during volcanic activity is that there are inclusions, pieces of older material broken off and carried in the magma.Again, if they are scientists or even educated laypersons, they know that. Those inclusions will test older than the surrounding magma because, guess what???? They ARE older.But AIG does NOT post those facts on their website because their goal is to con Biblical Creationists and they know that Biblical Creationists are so ignorant that they will not spot the flim-flam.Taking money from the pockets of Biblical Creationists is easy work and relatively safe as con jobs go.

ArchArchitect asks: A very important question.I am not attacking Creationists, in fact I describe myself as a Creationist as you can see in Message 1.What I attack is the Christian Cult of Ignorance tactics of dishonesty, misdirection and out right fraud.The sources you site, groups like AIG and ICR and Discovery Institute get by because they misrepresent scientific facts as I showed you in their examples of using Radiocarbon dating to measure something older than the range possible using that method, or using K-Ar dating to measure something younger than the lower limits of that method, and not pointing out the issue of Inclusions.Any Scientist and most educated laymen know those limitations. Yet the Biblical Creationist, ID folk continue their tactic of telling folk like yourself only part of the story.They lie. They cheat. They misrepresent.Their agenda is not to find out what is true, but to provide a convincing argument that ignorant folk will buy, and thus keep the money rolling in.

The sad thing is that sites like AIG continue to post material that has not only been shown to be incorrect, but to really be just fraud and lies, even after being exposed. As long as they can continue to fool the general Christian public the money just keeps rolling in.They know what they are doing and as long as the stream of money rolls in they are not concerned about honesty, truth or integrity.

Charlatans.If you look, Thomas G. Barnes (daid, thank God) was an ICR Creationist and the First Dean of the bad joke called the ICR Graduate School.
