I recently read an article which stated,"Radioactive carbon-14 has commonly been measured in coal and diamonds, indicating that the earth is less than 100,000 years old! If a sample is older than 100,000 years, there should be no carbon-14 remaining. Contamination is the usual uniformitarian dodge, but how can a diamond be contaminated with outside carbon? Furthermore, such young carbon-14 dates in “old” carbon are more the rule than the exception!" ?
