they had it on MythBusters a while back. 2 dead pigs. 1 dated to thousands of years and the other was just a few months. They burried both on the same day in the same conditions.

Living snails that carbon-date to 2,300 years old, a living seal that was carbon-dated at 1,300 years old, and 8,000-year-old living penguins.




Tell me this scientists... how do you know the half-life of carbon has remained a constant variable throughout time?

LOL to anyone who thinks there is actually some sure fire way to accurately measure the age of something thousands of + years old.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15526347


If you don't know its age how can you say it's "thousands of years old"?

DUH!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17131873


Hmm let me take a guess, scientists engage in a lot of supposition, and make sure they only get "evidence" that supports their suppositions? Nah can't be, scientists are super intelligent super men who never engage in such human foibles.

There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

They know that it hasn't C14 is destablized by arsenic, current calculations acount only for the current amount of arsenic in the atmosphere and the earth (there are trace amounts of both)... However, evolutionists admit that for evolution to be possible at one time the earth's atmosphere had to be way more dense and composed differently than it is. So considering a fossil has not been exposed to any more arsenic than it would be from normal, current atmospheric levels carbon dating is a somewhat decent approximation. However, you're assuming alot and it is admitted that at some point in the history of the earth the atmosphere had to be completely different, so it can be somewhat accurate up to that point, but if a fossil is from before that point carbon dating will tell you absolutely nothing.

Re: Carbon Dating is only accurate if they don't know the Actual Age
Yeah Yeah.. again hovind knows and the bible knows too!!?? stop joking people!!..

Radio-carbon dating has flaws, we all know that..

But how can people think 'god' knows all and knows all about science as well??
Example: When the Bible was written and compiled, things were different. People believed that we were in a geocentric universe (the earth was the center of the universe and everything revolved around it), they thought the earth was flat, and other basic scientific phenomenon were unknown to these people.
Even as late as 1492, people were convinced that silly old Columbus was going to fall off of the earth.
^^^ god and the bible knows all and is correct? haha

But as we know today, the earth is a sphere, and there are no ends on a sphere. Just pick up a ball and find its ends. It's not flat nor a disk shaped thing.. Columbus had to prove that and what do you think?? he did!!

True, however this only applies to human civilization, not the age of the Earth. Read Gen. 1.1 & 1.2 in the original Hebrew. Also check on what Jewish thinkers in the 1st century & and 10th century thought the age of the Universe was from a study of Scripture. The answer is surprisingly close to what scientists today think

15 billion years

i do know that mate.. carbon half time of the isotope 14C is variable is dependend on the environment that the objects are found in, in the dessert a similar aged object would date different then one from the arctics and if the production rate of 14C in the atmosphere is not equal to the removal rate (mostly through decay), this ratio will change...
yet a combined dating method still shows many objects are much older then hovind claims..

Re: Carbon Dating is only accurate if they don't know the Actual Age
If the peoples durring the Dark Ages would have had access to the Scriptures, they would have never believed the earth was flat or that the earth was the center of the our solar system. All of this was a direct result of the Roman Catholic Church.

Isaiah 40:22 says

" It is He who sits above the CIRCLE of the earth,
And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,...."

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6733501

Time itself may not have remained constant over 'time'.

If time moved faster in our 'past', then would carbon-dating show this? Probably not.

If the universe was caused by some approximation of a 'Big Bang' creation concept, and if the universe is expanding from that point, then who is to say that the rate of expansion has remained a 'constant' since the beginning?

If the universe is expanding, and if that expansion is slowing down, can time then be said to be perhaps slowing down as well?
