Both of these lines of evidence show that there was no global flood about 4,350 years ago.

I wasn't trying to slight the other 99 categories in my post. Far from it.
I should have used the winky guy.
I was limiting the evidence to things I had actually participated in (I did not help with the 10,300 year old mtDNA, but I did conduct a similar, but younger, study. It was still significantly older than the 4,350 year date attributed to the global flood.)
That's why you deserve full credit for #61 (order independent of quality).
This way there would not be a convenient canned answer to my evidence over on Answers in Genesis or one of those other creationist sites. Might encourage some independent thinking, eh?
Good point.
Well before I get to far astray from the OP, I just want to state that despite what Ken Ham may believe, it is obvious due to an almost infinite amount of reasons that his interpretation of the Bible has been corrupted by watching the Flintstones in his youth. It is unfortunate that a minority in the US share this confusion unlike the 99.85% of people actually working in the field.
I would imagine this figure approaches 100% in the rest of the world where there is little or no money to be made from making a mockery (in the matter of human/T-Rex coexistence) of both religion and poorly drawn cartoons.
Edited by anglagard, : well people do make money from mocking religion, but the dinosaur thing is usually just too easy outside of the US
