The Sacraments of Science: Radiometric Dating and the Fossil Record

Radiometric Dating is the unshakable scientific proof that our world is billions of years old and we are the product of slow, uniformatarian evolution throughout the millenia. This is taught as absolute fact in every level of science, down from early elementary school to the collegiate ivory tower. The knowledge is grounded in sound, reasonable science, tested time and again, and stood up again the most intense scrutiny.Or has it?Are there assumptions that are being made in order to arrive at certain conclusions about carbon dating? What is the chemical and nuclear pathway of uranium decay? Is the potassium-argon line truly reliable? What are these strange elliptical radiohalos left behind in coalified wood and what can it tell us about our past?If radiometric dating is less than reliable, what does that mean for the fossil record? Is this nothing more than the religion of scientism?Join Jess and Elise this week as they dare to ask the most sensitive questions of scientists and posit that perhaps the assumptions we have made about our history are not as certain as they appear.Don't forget to like and subscribe to get new and great content every week!Anyone who leaves us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts, take a screenshot and email it to quirksofcreation@gmail.com!
