“an earlier atmosphere had about 35 percent oxygen compared to today’s 21 percent.” And that is why I believe the carbon dating is all jacked up with errors. To base a dating system on current environmental observations and then base your whole said science of everything on that guess is just insane to me. No thanks, I’ll stick with the Scriptures that gives me the beginning, ending, middle, and times in between and has yet to been proven wrong.

Not just basing a dating system on current environmental observations but on uniform rate of decay. Meanwhile I remember Wikipedia saying that Goliath could not be over 9' tall since he would not be able to breathe, but that presupposes that the atmosphere was as today, even if maybe not in LA.

“Not just basing a dating system on current environmental observations but on uniform rate of decay.”

Very good point.
