Yeah.

Looks like you guys should avoid KFC for the next few months:

That facebook person's ignorance.... it HURTS.

If all you heard was "Lalalalalala" you should probably get your ears checked.

Do you mean to tell me that i said you where behaving like a child when you refused to acknowledge basic proven understanding of the world around us, when all evidence discovered so far supports this view and then you substitute it with something that has no evidence to support it because it fits your fairy tale?

How dare I.

Pin point accuracy is relative to the size of the target and the margin of a miss.

To be technical, pin point accuracy is only relative to the size of the pin.

However regardless of whether or not carbon dating is 100% accurate, it's accurate enough to be able to debunk the whole "couple thousand years" idea with ease, so the point is moot. As are most points brought up by religious folk.

I like to think the Earth has almost no definable date. That makes things more interesting and mysterious to ponder.

Facts are created from a bunch of people who agree upon a single opinion.

That is why people hate the "What if" scenario.

"What if" time is going faster due to the opinion of the universe expanding. Wouldn't that make carbon dating hard to measure?

People who are not open minded hate having their views questioned.

Of course in the end, you fuck with the person you played the "What if" game with and say: "Of course, it's all a matter of opinion."

[Bodzilla]

this just in, you dont understand science, here's john with the weather.


watch this.

[PopeAK49]

But that is just your opinion.







Video was disturbing.

@KingFisher: Before even getting into semantics, your logic is flawed. We are not observers outside the system, we are a part of the system. The short and sweet version of the laws of thermodynamics is that everything is connected. Thus the time involved in the decay of carbon-14 is also expanding and therefore the measurements are sound. It's like taking a thermometer and stretching everything about it out at the same rate at any given point. Sure, the scale is getting wider and wider, but 20 C is still 20 C because the properties of the fluid have changed with the physical dimensions of the instrument.

And now for the semantics:

Some people like to pose the following scenario:

Define the colour "red" without referencing any object.

Now, most people will falter and point out an object anyways. Then they ask, what is red? In my opinion it is "x."

Well, news flash: opinions can be wrong.

What is red? Red is visible light between 620 nm and 740 nm. Outside of those extremes it's either invisible or orange.
