HOW GOOD Are Those Young Earth Arguments by Dave E. Matson: Main Menu
Dear reader
It only takes one proof
Shrinking Sun
Accumulation of cosmic dust
The existence of short period comets
No fossil meteorites
Lunar recession
Moon contains U-236 and Th-230
Poynting-Robertson effect on space dust
Star cluster expansion
Saturn's rings
Cooling rates of Jupiter and Saturn
Decay of Earth's magnetic field
Volume of lava on Earth
Mineral in ocean water
Helium in Earth's atmophere
Erosion of Earth's continents
Thickness of topsoil
Erosion of Niagara Falls
Oil and gas well pressure
Mississippi River Delta
Slowing of Earth's Rotation
Sediment transport
Stalactite formation rates
Sahara Desert
Amount of salt in the oceans
Number of people on Earth
Oldest coral reef
Oldest tree
Oldest historical record
Dates in the Bible
Stories from ancient cultures
Carbon-14 decay rate
Initial carbon-14 unknown
System might not be closed
Carbon-14 accurately measured
Curve based on too few measurements
Geologic Column base to calibrate C-14 dates
Geologic Column Assumes Evolution
Column invented to discredit Bible and does not exist
Polystrate fossils and missing/out-of-order layers
Choice of method determines age
Woodmorappe's collection of bad dates
Water and vapor and Noah's flood
Coal and oil
Mammoths: were they quick-frozen?
A couple of ice age problems
The Distance to Supernova SN1987A and the Speed of Light
If the universe is young don't bother with evolution
FROGS+TIME = PRINCE
Structures cannot evolve by chance
Evolution is merely a theory
Evolution is a religion
Only one proof needed for young-earth
Each proof is described in detail
Evolutionists typically try to debunk only one argument
Burden of proof on evolutionists
Another fatal problem for the vapor canopy idea
A fatal heat and radiation problem for the young-earth idea
