As for the actual content of the video, why don't you do a little research? I'm sure, if you're honest, you'll soon enough discover the Mack truck-size holes in the presentation.
And if you're not honest about it, you will only (1) confirm my dim view of what passes for Christian honesty, or (2) confirm to me that you are a Poe.
Yeah, I have to agree with you on that. When I see someone posting stuff that's that blatantly dishonest about the subject, I can no longer take them seriously enough to waste my time interacting with them.
1. Liar
2. Poe
3. Accepts that the USGS is not insane, and that there's a rational basis for radioisometric dating.
I also agree that if the dating methods were used to confirm that a piece of wood was Jesus's cross (or somesuch), they'd be all about it.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
