Creationists believe they are young so they asked for secular labs to do the tests. Of course, there was C14 in both, and every time the tests were done. Rather than admitting this is strong evidence against old ages for the coal and diamonds, Evolutionists just say there was cross contamination, something they of course never observed and can never demonstrate. So it’s a nice way of ignoring evidence that doesn’t fit the paradigm.
A YEC accusing scientists of "ignoring evidence that doesn't fit the paradigm"?
Oh, and your bullshit about Carbon-14 in diamonds and coal being evidence of a young Earth is refuted in this scholarly article: http://www.asa3.org/ASA/education/origins/carbon-kb.htm
This just demonstrates your youthful idealism concering the infallibility of scientists. First of all, trying to refute work that has been peer-reviewed wtih an non-reviewed article is pretty lame. Secondly, arguing for contamination that was never observed is not scientific. Assuming un-observed contamination occurred is a way of cramming the evidence into the paradigm. Shocking.
