Do you believe we (the U.S.) dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima and/or Nagasaki? The reasoning is this: If carbon dating can't be trusted then our fundamental understanding of how the atomic structure works and the foundations for all modern chemistry for that matter are wrong. If various radiometric dating techniques don't work, or work improperly, it's because we just don't get it, so to speek, that we don't understand atoms. If radiometric dating doesn't work, there is no way we could have had the understanding to split an atom, which is based on the same processes and understandings. So, given that, do you doubt that we "nuked" Hiroshima and/or Nagasaki? Or that we can get power from a nuclear power plant? If radiocarbon dating is wrong, both those things would be impossible. What does this do, if anything, to your doubts/arguments for a young earth or against the evolutionary timeline?
