I'm a YEC. Challenge me.
RE: I'm a YEC. Challenge me.
You already do, citizen. We rely on informants and whistleblowers for the most part. Our job would be far less cushy if we actually had to do anything.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

@ OP (if you're still around), you believe in YEC after much verification on your part? Seems you're already challenged Big Grin

The chart shows differences that are outside of error.

Because, to be clear, you're arguing definitions again, and not the science: whether or not this classifies as early, the fact that it measures the last impact and not the age of the rock isn't in doubt. All this means is that the last impact was two billion years after the rock was formed. That's just what happened, and focusing in on the wording in a sentence will not change the actual physical process behind the science.
So why does your source say "early"? Also note that, according to beardedguy, other methods should also have been reset by such events, yet we see differences in ages between the methods.

I don't know why the source says early; does that change the fact that this specific dating method measures what it measures, and not the original age of the rock?

Am I responsible for what beardedguy says, now? Not to badmouth him or anything, but I can hardly be held in contention for the words of another. Find out for yourself which is right; for all the shit you throw at the science here, you sure as hell seem unwilling to expend much effort in reading up on this yourself.

Quote:You started haggling yourself with the mention of 500 million years. Now you're pissed because that didn't help you.

I mentioned 500 million years as a demonstration of the timescales involved here, nothing more. And I wouldn't have to have even done that, if you'd been arguing the science from the beginning, instead of doing what you always do, which is picking at irrelevant wordings to forestall being proven wrong.
