    I meant I wouldn't put my faith in carbon dating. There is absolutely no way to prove that the method is accurate in prehistoric cases. That just means when I hear someone make a statement like "this is x million years old" and try to pass it off as proven fact, I'll know their full of shit.

    Most programs and books are good about using the words "scientists estimate", which is proper. Some sources state their estimates with certainty, and that is misleading for a lot of people.

    I'm sure you can agree that there is currently no possible way to determine whether carbon 14 dating is accurate. After all, fossils don't come with date stamps.

    And please, don't accuse me of being religious just because I don't agree with someone's theory. It's arrogant of you and it's insulting to me. I don't have a problem with religion, people can do whatever they want to. It's just not my crowd.

    It hasn't turned that way yet. There's a few people trying to swing it that way, but I don't think there's anyone on the other side of the fence in here yet.

    Casting doubt on the accuracy of radiocarbon dating is a time-worn tactic of the young-earth creationists, who seem to think that if they can prove some holes exist in the otherwise well-supported theories of evolution and geology, we will all have to believe that their nonsense is correct and the world really is only 6000 years old.

    I think you mean sorry about the baby's luck. The number one indicator of poverty in the U.S. is teen pregnancy. If kids have kids it is a virtual guarantee that both parents and child will live a life of poverty. Life of poverty often leads to life of crime. Personally I don't want to live in a society where abortions aren't allowed. As far as I know the U.S. is the only developed nation where this is still debated.

    If I unexpectedly got a girl pregnant, I would try my best to convince her to keep it and offer as much help as she needed. I don't consider killing a baby for my own convenience as ethical. If I am stupid enough to let it happen, then it is my responsibility. I am not completely against abortion, in certain situations it is understandable or even necessary. However, I have little respect for those that are in a position where they could easily look after a baby, but abort it for the sake of preserving their lifestyle.

    While you are sort of correct that there is no way to prove with certainty that carbon dating is 100% accurate, there an overwhelming amount of data which suggests that the estimates provided by carbon dating are fairly reliable. Radio isotope dating is not limited to C14. It can be done with any isotope whith slow radioactive decay. The data produced from other radio isotopes is in close agreement with that from carbon dating.

    There is a principle in science know as occums razor. Basically it says that the simplest explaination is probably accurate. So what do you think is more likely:

    God created the earth and everything on it about 5000 years ago in 7 days (only data to support this is a book writen by people who believed the earth was flat)

    or the earth has been around much longer and people as well as all other life slowly evolved to be as we are today.

    BTW carbon dating really isn't used to explain evolution, just to create a timeline of when certain things happened. Evolution can be observed in real time in bacteria. Blah Blah Blah, noone is listening anyway, don't know why I can't resist responding.

    Is a sperm a baby? If we can quantify a single cell amoeba as life why stop there? You need sperm to create babies, prehaps masturbation and money shots should be made illegal as well.

    I'm not even sure how to respond to this. Nothing that I've said has anything to do with religious beliefs or evolution.

    I'm glad we can agree carbon dating can not be proven accurate in all instances.

    I think he's talking about killing a baby once it becomes a human. Just a guess.

    Sorry I assumed that since you chimed in about carbon dating you were part of the religion crowd who first brought up carbon dating. My bad.

    And we don't agree.

    Yeah but at what point after a sperm has fertilised an egg does it become human? Immediately? Two days time? Three weeks later? I personally dont think a blastocyte can be considered human, it's just a ball of 150 cells that havent even differentiated yet nor is it sentient. Yet it's immoral to use that for stem cell research?

    This thread is going to run for pages...

    My opinion is if you're man (or woman) enough to f uck you are willing to accept the possible consequences.

    If you're not ready or able to raise a kid give it up for adoption.

    After about 8 weeks the baby has a heartbeat and begins to take on the form of a human. So I'll just say it's probably sometime before that. I'm not a biologist or doctor so I don't know for certain.

    Good call. Or you could just do what I always do and pull out and put a load on her back. In 5 years of marriage, it hasn't failed me yet

    Agreed. Abortion is ridiculous and as I mentioned before I did not have this opinion before having a baby born that was very close to me (neice)

    The only thing I'm gonna add is that 'pro-choice' and 'pro-life' are the two most feebleminded euphemisms ever and shouldn't be used by anyone when discussing abortion. Ever.

    My sister showed me a video she watched at the doctors or wherever it was. It was called silent scream and it shows what a baby is @ 16 weeks. Also that the baby can feet pain during the abortion while its being sucked through a tube.

    I was always there for the ultra sounds of my 4. Pretty amazing to see a tiny little person rolling and jumping inside his/her mother.
