You've had it shown all over by Alate, Barb along with others so don't play coy. You were never going to acknowledge any of it because presently at least, you have an unshakable belief in a young earth.

Quite right. It's only a big deal for those who are stuck in young earth creationism. I'm not arguing that God isn't involved in the process just to clarify.

I schooled you already on radiometric dating. Why can't you ever learn anything?
You are full of HOT AIR.
Put the EVIDENCE forward you huffing windbag.

The primary proponents of the GTY ToE are arguing that God isn't involved. You are a useful dupe to them.

You did no such thing and stop projecting.

Only the likes of Dawkins and he isn't representative of science or evolution in general by any stretch.

Indeed I did. Radiometric dating is based on SEVERAL UNVERIFABLE ASSUMPTIONS.
That you still do not understand how it works and defend it as though it was an absolute scientific method is your own personal problem (among many things in science that you do not understand).

If you think that Dawkins is the ONLY ONE, you are incredibly dumb.

Did I say that he was the only one? Nope. The most vocal probably, but not the only one. And?
Arthur Brain

No, you didn't. You parroted on a lot in self congratulatory fashion and dismissed the contrary as you're continually prone to do. You were even linked to an in depth article on the subject and carried on doing the same. You really aren't in any position whatsoever to accuse other people of having problems with science either but you carry if you want. Can be dismissed easily enough.

Uh, I said "only the likes of Dawkins." Do you have a reading comprehension problem? That clearly doesn't state that he is the only one. It obviously implies that there are others of similar ilk so get a grip.

Again, I explained it in SIMPLE and yet COMPLETE DETAIL.
That you cannot see it is due to your commitment to old earth propaganda.
That's always a great diversionary tactic to an actual discuss of the FACTS.
Discuss FACTS instead of rhetoric.
Radiometric dating (of the "millions/billions of years" sort) is based on the BIG BANG cosmological models which has MANY, MANY, MANY, MANY problems. It is HIGHLY SPECULATIVE (making it equivalent to conjecture).

The M/B years is based on HUGE ASSUMPTIONS about the ORIGINS of the various radioactive elements.
That you know NOTHING about these things makes your incapable of discussing them.
Please education yourself so that you don't look so bad trying to "discuss" the issues.

The "likes of Dawkins" is a HUGE number of people.
No, but you have a problem communicating accurately.

Uh huh. So you accuse me of a diversionary tactic by simply pointing out that you've been linked to an in depth article that debunked your supposedly 'completely detailed' explanation and then link to a Bob Enyart article?!
That's hysterical right there. I recommend that you take your own advice.

There was no problem whatsoever with the phraseology and you dropped the ball when you accused me of stating that Dawkins was the only one when he clearly isn't as you now acknowledge. To say it's a 'huge' number of people is just hyperbole.
You do understand what hyperbole means, right?

Please take the time to learn how radiometric dating works, so that we can discuss it.
It is based on many unverifiable assumptions (like most of GTY ToE).
Arthur Brain

I've read how radiometric dating works thanks, I've certainly no interest in reading something that Bob Enyart cobbled together.
To say that the ToE is based on such is just completely ignorant also.
Right Divider
Body part
No, apparently you don't.
Bob did not "cobble" anything together.
You just like to ignore the FACTS that he has gathered. Many of them from secular sources that you would otherwise accept.
The GTY ToE is based on baloney and wishful thinking.

No, it's based on evidence like anything else that becomes a theory in science. If you can't understand that basic detail then you're in no position to talk about 'facts'.
