etrange:Well, the reason I go with the relative dating is that it is easier and handy since the age assigned to geologic column is fixed instead of the expensive radiometric dating of the rock in which they are found. Now I don't mean that the rocks are not dated but it is a common experience among geologists that age according to local geology is mostly different to that gotten from radiometric dating. And this is because of the different issues which radiometric dating have, hence such dates are easily discarded. Like I agreed, knowing decay rate and number of daughter atoms present, one can calculate the 'age' when a rock cooled but the reason why such ages are not taken serious by some (young earthers mostly) is that: different dating methods give different rates, the assumptions as stated before and the worst case is that rocks whose ages are known gave millions of years when dated. And as I stated before, there are other geochemical activities that shows decay rates may either be accelerated in the past or even point to lesser age but this is like challenging the ruling paradigm - such works don't eventually get published though other scientist write their form of rebuttals. This is why I may not take the statement "radiometric dating is the closest thing to perfection" as 'perfect'. For the last statement, the scientific community have a consensus and dissenters are persecuted severely (Galileo is a good example), so it may take a 'miracle' for them to accept a very good evidence that goes against the ruling paradigm as concrete. But what do I know sef 1 Like |

etrange:I like the fact that you agreed like many other followers of science that carbon dating is hugely flawed in dating fossils, unlike the pseudoscience carbon dating crooners here on nairaland that shout the word like some magic spell they learnt recently. It was found out that carbon dating beyond 15 to 20,000 years is completely unreliable. The measuring of isotopic decays for fossils also has its inherent argument but that’s for another topic. |

Even without radiometric dating it is not rocket science that the layers or strata of earth form over themselves and counting the rate of column formation gives you the date the creature lived in. So a column that forms at 1cm/yr counted over would still give you the same or close enough result. Geologists have known for centuries that stratas of the earth form in millions of years, else we'd be shoveling dirt out of our houses every year. |

Grandmeister:When I learnt radioactive dating it was carbon dating that was onpoint, being not accurate doesn't mean wrong actually. Event dating back to million of years . carbon dating might not be accurate but give an idea of how far stuff could have been. Now that there are more accurate ways of mensuration we subscribe to that, and science continue to grow man. |
