One of the main reasons for believing the earth is billions of years old, evolutions claim, is that radioisotope dating methods provide quite old absolute ages. But, is that the full truth? Creation scientists have made some significant discoveries that stand in full contrast to this central dogma. In fact, we have many documented instances where the radiometric dates do not at all coincide with the known ages of the rocks. If these dating methods don’t work when we know the age of the test sample, why should we expect them to work when we don’t know it?
In this lesson, you’ll learn:
- Why the assumptions made in radioisotope dating methods cannot be proven.
- Three specific examples of failed dating results.
- How a baby island fundamentally changes the need for “deep time.”
