Re: Scishow on archaeology dating methods
The problem with their dating methods is their assumptions. They ASSUME that the rate of decay they see today has remained that same over eons, while cutting edge scientists are proving that the rate of decay wasn't always the same as they see today, throwing off their conclusions and making them incorrect. She mentioned dating stalactites and stalagmites, but I have watched too many shows that proved that those things don't take eons to form, and can in fact form very quickly. I would post the shows for you, but they're Christian shows so I'll just say if you want to get the most cutting edge scientific facts that are being proven, look for Creation In The 21st Century, with David Rives, on TBN (Trinity Broadcast Network). I watch it at 12:30 pm every Saturday, and even Steve, who is an agnostic who has always excelled in science, watches them with me and is amazed at what he learns. It's the only one he does watch, so do look for the show if you want the latest proofs. ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)

Re: Scishow on archaeology dating methods
I do watch some of Rives videos, but then again my ideas are not entertained by either of the sides as both sides meet in the front & both sides meet in the back. Scientists and religious scholars have much more in common that they admit since they have to battle each other to be funded. Kinda like politics. Both sides have to believe or there would be no forward movement in theory and proof. I have to work on not trying to understand galactic theory, but I cant ignore its there with the apparent time lines and if you want to argue with me about the sudden thing, God could have made it all yesterday with no proof to the contrary as he is all powerful so lets stick to finding the clues in what is all around us and leave the discussions in the discussions zone. The distractions are running wild in the world now and need hands on cures. Jobs, end corruption. Just fair universally not in outcome, but in opportunity in the rules that keep the criminals at bay.
