Creationist problems with radiocarbon dating

There are many sources of contamination in the 14C methodology. There is extraneous 14C introduced during sample preparation, there is small amounts of 14C in the equipment itself, and any measuring device will have an inherent background. On top of that, nitrogen in the sample can be turned into 14C by high energy particles just as it occurs in the upper atmosphere. These small but significant sources of background mean that we can not measure very old ages where very little 14C is left. What you need is 14C levels that are well above background in order to get accurate dates.

What you need, 14C levels that are significantly above the background to get the exact date.

The exact date of combustion deposits exposed in this case I'm talking about the angle, you can not. The reason for this in my opinion is quite clear C14 could disappear. Well, not quite sure but the deformation measurements on my view of the face. As for the chalk and limestone, then there is not even worth trying.

Working scientists spend essentially no time and energy worrying about what creationists do or say. There is no scientific debate about whether the earth is only 6000 years old.

What event are we describing using a date result of 50 billion years, or even 20 billion years? Aren't those values greater than the current age of the entire universe? (ducking head before you know who shows up...)

But I think this is not a fight against creationists, and the struggle between the two systems. And this aspect has long been a need to remember. is that the creationist movement leaders do not want to without a fight to take their positions. And they go to any trick that would return the power they so shamefully lost.

Your post has nothing to do with radiocarbon dating.Please limit your posts on this thread to the topic of radiocarbon dating.Posts on other subjects should be in more appropriate threads.

Hi morningstar2008 ... not be dated with radiocarbon dating, the topic of this thread. The Mariana Trench is not an impact crater, it is a subduction wrinkle\fold\crease in the mantle. YOU have work to do. The science side is pretty well settled.Enjoy.

Hi Morningstar2008 To add to what Taq said: If we look again at the curve (from 14C Calibration and Correlations ): IF the background level were 0.04, for example, then wherever that horizontal line intersects the curve would be the limit to the method, in this case it would be around 22,500 years.Enjoy

Thanks mate for this superb post. I realize that you did a deep analysis for this great Post.

It is nice to have you here but please don't post contentless messages so much. Only if you have a question or something to contribute please

Coyote, just some questions about radiocarbon dating itself,1) Is carbon 14 produced in relatively small quantities (relative to carbon 12) in the atmosphere?
2) Is its production directly reduced by a stronger magnetic field?
3) Is the magnetic field currently weaker now than in times past?

Yes, in very small quantities: about 1 part per trillion. As C14 is produced by cosmic rays in the upper atmosphere, it varies somewhat due to the fluctuations in cosmic rays and these, in turn, vary somewhat due to changes in the earth's magnetic field. Wiki says the field is currently decreasing, but "this strength is about average for the last 7 thousand years, and the current rate of change is not unusual."Fluctuations in the levels of atmospheric C14 would be a problem for C14 dating if there was no correction for this effect. By dating individual tree rings in old wood a correction factor can be established.It works like this: certain types of trees are know to grow only one ring per year and to be exceptionally long-lived. By dating individual rings back thousands of years a "calibration curve" can be worked out to correct conventional radiocarbon dates for atmospheric fluctuations. If I recall correctly, the change never gets beyond about 10 or 11 percent.In addition to tree rings, there are a number of other things that produce annular "rings" that can be dated and used to establish a calibration curve. Several of these are illustrated in the following graph: As you can see, several different materials all produce similar results.Hope this helps.

Thanks, since you have started a new thread on this, we can continue our discussion there.
