Geochronometers

Geochronometers
According to this meme and thousands of Christian Apologetic websites,

I would like to think and discuss a few posibilities on this and share information I found. 
I can't find the actual fucking Science Data that says this. 
1. So it might just be completely bad information, given there is the equivalent of the 30 minute rule made by a chain email. 
2. It is true, BUT the majority of those Geochronometers are bad, period. Such as they may be taking in account something like Carbon Dating used on Animals to determine when they died or something like that. 
3. This meme mocks Theists by using the raptor from Philosophical Raptor. I honestly doubt that soley because of the lab coat remark, but it may still fit.

An actual refutation to that would be that Geologists say that Carbon Dating is inaccurate, so that is why they use Radiometric dating, but we don't really need to say that because we already know that. 

Anyone else want to get down to the source of this bullshit?

RE: Geochronometers
Carbon dating is a form if radiometric dating, and is not inaccurate. It is merely not applicable to time spans longer than a few tens of thousands of years, and not to rocks. The claim in the meme though needs no refutation because it is made up

Ah, so do you think it may have been a case of made up Telephone or someone who actually knew had to make a meme and was making propaganda?(The human mind will continue to expend energy on anything until all the mysteries are solved.)

RE: Geochronometers
It is probably taken from one of those hundreds of usual lists of facts from yec apologist websites which supposedly refute whatever they don't like about science. These always betray a profound misunderstanding or wilful misreading of the science, hard to tell whether due to incompetence or cynical propaganda. Young earthers always copypaste this crap all over the web without once switching their brain on.

RE: Geochronometers
That would mostly explain everything.
One question.
Which list?
