Whoops? You were on a roll until there. You can't carbon date a fossil. Fossils are rock, no carbon.
You can carbon date a shell, a bone, even old charcoal if its from a good context, but you can't carbon date a rock.
Before you lecture scientists on science, better bone up on it a little.
Not only can you not carbon date a fossil, but you can't even carbon date a shell, bone or old charcoal if it is more than about 50000 years old. The half life of C-14 is too short to be useful beyond about 50000 years.
