Carbon 14 *IS* the accepted science for research, but its not

infallible...



Science doesn't claim to be infallible or perfectly accurate but rather

is self correcting and tends get better with time and effort.

C14 dating has well known limitations and constraints for appropriate

application and *is not* the only accepted method of dating.

It is an unfortunately common (and dishonest) creationist tactic to take

relatively small scientific controversies or corrections and equivocate

to infer that the whole field is unreliable.



As one of my mentors once said "All simulations (models) are wrong, some

are useful."



The god of the gaps is shrinking slowly.







There's nothing but dishonesty in creationism. It's one thing to be

self-delusional and believe that sort of nonsense, and it is quite

another and dishonest to try to push it onto public school kids as some

sort of "alternative."


Great proclamation Harry! Interesting that Creationism is 'dishonest' but an evolutionary theory is taught as a proven fact. LOL! BTW, When you gonna start building the conscentration camps to hold the 'religiously insane?"

Can I be the first to sign the guest book?

There is tons of science underpinning evolution, but not a shred of
evidence that creationism is anything more than religious delusion.

Go ahead, *prove* a supreme being created the universe. Got *any*
evidence that will stand scientific scrutiny? Anything at all beyond
religious "belief"?

As I have stated many times, I don't give a damn what "the religious"
believe in terms of their religion, so long as they don't try to push
those beliefs beyond themselves, their families, their churches, et
cetera. Teaching or promoting of religious belief should have no place
in our public schools or public institutions or public government.

We expect the same consideration from you, not to push your secular humanism, beyond
yourself. Teaching or promoting your belief system should have no place in public
institutions and public governmnet.
