  Another dating methods that disproves a worldwide flood: dendrochronology. Matching patterns in tree rings have made it possible to construct a tree ring database up to 11.000 years back for some regions.

  Guess those tree just kept growing while under water for a year.

  Or varve dating...the layers deposited in lakes. Lake Suigetsu shows no signs of a global deluge in the last 52000 years, or we would have heard about it.

  @Bohm:

  BoC is explaining how ridiculous it is to think these ice cores are not as old as scientists say. It would really mean Jehovah is a trickster God who deceives humanity on purpose by planting false evidence. Makes no sense.

  BOHM - I think the "new light" is "we don't know," but the original no-rain myth persists in most witnesses' minds.

  I think that is all they can fall back on, and yet he " cannot lie " ?

  Bohm- I stand corrected regarding radio carbon dating. What I was referring to was radiometric dating of rocks.

  Truthexplorer: okay, no worries. But lets stick with Carbon 14 for a moment. what is your explanation of the graph I showed on the previous page? in particular, why on your opinion does all these different methods converge on the same result if carbon 14 does not work?
