Probably won't help...
If the fundamentalist Christians understood any of that they would be so angry right now.
Lead can exist without having previously been uranium.
Yeah, you can't argue against creationism when creationism itself is not falsifiable. If every piece of evidence to the contrary can be explained by "God made it that way on purpose." Then no amount of evidence will ever be considered enough.
You have to give it to God to have planted so many deceptive clues a bit everywhere. What a prankster!
Mind you, the amount of work that went into planting all that fake evidence is a pretty strong indicator that, by far, Scientists are the people whose opinion God cares the most about.
Excellent point!
GodGPT, make an earth but make it an old earth, like several billions years old. I am going to make a new intelligent species and then prank the shit out of them!
Oh that's horrible, why would you do this to yourself? ๐
There's so much evidence already existing that anyone claiming otherwise is just ignorant, either out of lack of education or by choice.
It could have been a water pipe for example.
can it really though? read this the other week. https://sciencereader.com/glossary/uranium-decay-series/ i am not an expert in this subject, but find it interesting.
I believe uranium only gets to exist from having previously been lead, and eventually decays back into lead.
Yes, Lead-204 is primordial, not radiogenic.
But it can't exist without having been Hydrogen.
Just like the dinosaur bones, god created the bones and placed them there. They do not disprove any thing.
