It's not a thorn in the side of a creationist, but rather the evolutionist. We are finding C-14 in EVERYTHING. Diamonds, oil, etc. If the evolutionist is right, these things should have so little C-14 in them that it cannot be measured. C-14 dating is only capable of dating up to 60,000 years.

It's NOT used to date dinosaurs or early Homonids.

Yet another problem for the evolutionist. They won't date anything they have presupposed to be older than 60,000 years old, knowing that when fair amounts of C-14 are found, it blows their theory out of the water. Consider the recent finding of soft tissue in a
T-rex fossil. Did soft tissue survive 70 million years? I personally don't think so. But what good is my opinion? Why don't we C-14 test it? If the evolutionist is right, there should be immeasurable amounts of C-14. Will they test it? Nope. A radio show offered a $25,000 grant to have it C-14 dated, and they refused.

Carbon 14 is 1 of many dating methods .... & can be used on a 750,000 yr old bone as a secondary "back up", to simply prove it's "older" than 60K yrs, bolstering the other methods that were used...

The problem is that they won't do this, as I stated above.
