Expected levels are zero.

Actually, moron, "Israel" referred to the northern kingdom which was overrun in the 8th century BC.  The Romans threw the fucking jews out of "Judaea" which was derived from the word "Yehud" that was a Persian term for this insignificant little shithole that they suddenly found themselves saddled with when they captured Babylon.  The Roman expulsion of the jews was in 135.

So they recycled a name and you get a hard-on over it.  Why am I not surprised.  BTW, the people who invented judaism were of the opinion that the "Israelites" were pretty shitty jews.  The Assyrians showed they were pretty shitty soldiers.

Yes, but there's a bit of self-selection going on in atheist forums. We tend to get the 'beard the atheists in their den' theists. In real life, though many of us have had experiences with the kind of theist we most often get here, the more reasonable theists such as yourself are more common.

Since the half life of C14 is about 5,730 years, which makes it useful for dating carbonaceous material not more than 60,000 years old. All other things being equal, C14 should be vanishingly rare in fossil fuel. I think that's a fair description of the amount of C14 in the fossil fuel with the lowest C14 ratio (chosen for that reason because its used in an observatory) is (thanks Wikipedia) '14C/12C ratio of 1.94×10−18 '.

Would I be correct in assuming that since Deep Thinker walked in and completely derailed the topic, he's moved on to fairer pastures?

We can always hope.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
