Can the standard "Young Earth Creationist" model be falsified by genetics alone?

OT, but Heat and radiation destroy claims of accelerated nuclear decay summarizes those results and adds the calculations of Noah's exposure to radiation from ⁴⁰K in his own body. Of course the calculation depends on what scenario one proposes for acceleration of decay, but I doubt there's on in which heat and radiation aren't an insuperable problem.Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

See the message immediately following the one you quoted. It doesn't exactly apply to your scenario, but it can form a basis for the calculations you are going to have to present when you get around to discussing radiometric dating.

Your RATE link is to RATE - 1. RATE - I I is at Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth, Volume II | The Institute for Creation Research.The ASA site is probably the best debunking site. There's lots of others.

No, they are not, at least not in any physically relevant situation.And of course you haven't thought things through, you're just spewing any nonsense that comes into you head. If the decay of heavy isotopes has been slowed then the dates we are measuring are too young. That is, the samples would be significantly older that our measurements say they are.Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

Quotes and references and discussion are in Heat and radiation destroy claims of accelerated nuclear decay. Of course you've ignored that twice already.

Obviously you didn't even bother to look. The summary is in the first message of the thread. Specific links are in that message.

Ah, I see. It's an incredibly stupid idea, but I see. So you think that what we see as 253 million years of decay is really 2,700 years of decay, or a factor of about 100,000 speed up.Let's look at self-irradiation. From the link you're trying so hard to avoid, human self-irradiation today due to decay of ⁴⁰K is about 100 or more μSv/year. Speeding up decay by a linear factor of 100,000 over those 2,700 years results in self-irradiation of 10 Sv/year. A 30 year old person would have been exposed to about 300 Sv. From the links in the message you are so afraid of, 4-5 Sv kills 50% of exposed people in 30 days, and 6 Sv results in a 90% death rate and more at higher levels. So we're looking at a level of self-irradiation that is on the order of 30 times the dose that kills 90% of the people. And you think that humans never noticed that high death rate from radiation poisoning with the attendant sores and vomiting and whatnot? And you believe the human race (and all other life) could survive that?Making the decay speedup nonlinear would make it even worse.Oh, and your scenario requires that Hezikiah's tunnel (Wikipedia) was dug long before Hezikiah reigned. Got it.There's more. Heat. Consilience between different methods using isotopes that decay by different mechanisms. Consilience with non-radiometric methods.It just doesn't fly.Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

Oh, Mindspawn...,No comment on how your scenario would kill off pretty much all life, as documented in message 148? You're the one that's complained about sweeping statements without calculations and facts. Well, there's some calculations and facts you can't avoid.And, of course, you are still ignoring the link in message 143. Just read the first message in the linked thread, that will show you the sort of calculations you have to do to establish your claims as viable.Still waiting for a reference for your claim that neutrons slow radioactive decay rates. Still betting that you just made it up.

Well, you've got links and calculations. Which you obviously don't respect and are incapable of addressing. We ride into the sunset, leaving the charnel house that mindspawn's scenario would make of Earth as the fantasy that it is.
