Does Nuclear Power Work? Creationist claim radio isotopic dating of rocks is bunkum yet it is based on the?

Question

same principles and methods used in nuclear reactors to generate power. Isotobes decay at a set, universal rate. This is basic physics. Yet when geologists use the same science to date the earth its bunkum.
Is there nothing to fear from Nuclear waste?
Will creationists eat it to prove their point?
I hope so!

Tom your showing your ignorance and your inability to comprehend a question. Radio isotobic dating is the dating of inorganic rocks, they set atomic clocks using this same regular, predictable rate of decay, your thinking of carbon 14 dating.

Answer 1

You obviously need an education...
Noone is saying radioactivity doesn't decay.....we are saying that the RATE is alterable over time and IS NOT CONSTANT....It can be altered by certain envionmental and physical effects...

Thus it is UNREALIABLE for Dating over long time spans..

Did you get it that time? Sheesh.

Answer 2

Carbon dating is actually only useful to about 50,000 years other isotopes are used after that, the creationists usually end up in a muddle about that little point.

Other techniques are used but let them look it up and not in www.answersingenesis.

Edit:

And Gary my dear boy, we KNOW THIS ALREADY!!!!! You really think all of the dating techniques used by geologists et al rely on something that only creationists know to be false, please join the reality based community. It is only C14 dating that is unreliable over about 50,000 years, get that, read it back slowly, it is ONLY C14 that is unreliable and only once you have gone back around 50,000 years, there are many other ways of dating fossils and rocks, C14 is the most accurate for use in archeology relating to humanity's recent history.

Answer 3

Dinosaurs did exist. They have been created on the 5th day. the different small dinosaurs would have been on the Ark. however the huge ones have been too risky to stay with mankind. each and each inventive day became a minimum of 6,000 years long via the way. Radio Carbon relationship is like utilising a clock with one hand. this equipment assumes that carbon distribution keeps to be a similar over the years. It would not. never has. many different activities have altered the quantity of radio carbon released on specific events. extremely the flood.

Answer 4

here's the thing the guy who developed the process of carbon dating said it might not be accurate and creationists because they do not truly undestand they creation story (my opinion) will take that statement to the grave. Aside form this the idea that what we see here today could possibly have happened through evolutionary processes here on this volitile planet in the time frame evidence indicates man has been here is a ridiculus assumption that will never be proved because the math simply does not work. One day soon the whole idea that verticle evolution had anything to do with mans development (here on this planet) will be dismissed as one of the most foolish ideas ever proposed.

Answer 5

Hmmmm... and.. can you verify the conditions that the isotopic materials have been subjected to from the very time they were absorbed into the plant?.. or can you verify that the amount that the plant absorbed was constant over its lifetime?.. or.. that the plant absorbed a "normal" amount that is used for dating?...

Science REQUIRES PROOF.. Religion does NOT, it requires FAITH.

Answer 6

Carbon dating is proven by comparison to tree ring data and the testing of artefacts with a known date of origin. To try and challenge it is just to ignore an overwhelming mass of evidence but creationists are good at that.

Answer 7

ahhh r we supposed to laugh?
