Quote:Yep, and they are ALL AIG cretinists who have to sign a statement of faith putting scripture before evidence, very scientific indeed.I did not bring that point about carbon 14 still being around. You're confusing me with someone else. I did say something about carbon 14 though. As carbon 14 is being made in the atmosphere and decaying there should come a point of equilibrium. Scientists say it should take about 50,000 years for this to happen so we defiantly should be there. The problem however is we aren't. The amount of carbon 14 is increasing. That is what I said in this thread or another. I believe it was Undecieved who brought that other point up. If you're trying to make fun of someone, keep track of who you're talking to.
Why should there be a point of equilibrium?
C14 just decays until there is only C12 left.
That is all.
Sorry about the confusion but you know how it is, sheep are hard to tell apart
They don't sign such a statement. You asked for an example and I gave a few. That's it.
You obviously don't understand how the carbon 14 cycle works. You are contradicting yourself. If it just decayed until it was gone it would be all gone in 50,000 years. Scientists don't worry about this because there's a cycle that produces the carbon 14 but that goes to my last point about equalibrium. Oh and one more thing, carbon 14 does not decay to carbon 12. It decays to nitrogen. The process is called beta decay. It's what happens when an element has too many neutrons and also how they make bigger elements that aren't natural.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
