Where did your research establish a beginning ratio of father vs daughter elements? You know with measurements in molten and all rock, eh?

I will answer your questions if you will answer mine. What does your "critical thinking" tell you about the probability that nearly all of the samples are "contaminated" in exactly the same way, with exactly the right combination and ratio of daughter elements to present the same false age reading?

You already have the answer you prefer so why should I belabor it further - imho uniformity does not make the measurements reliable when the assumptions and anomalies are still there completely unanswered.

If uniformity does not make measurements reliable, then nothing will.

If being "reliable" requires a total absence of anomalies, there is no known method of measuring anything that cannot be claimed to be "unreliable". It is a refutation of the whole of empirical science.

DNA is living code - at least while we’re living.

It's living? What's your definition of living?

Once you die the required environment to maintain DNA structure is not there and the laws of entropy and decay take over.

And that means it can only last thousands of years? How did you test that theory?

The majority of the factual and scientific evidence favors young ages -

Based on your link? So what is the age, based on the majority of the factual and scientific evidence?

3.The decay in the human genome due to multiple slightly deleterious mutations each generation is consistent with an origin several thousand years ago.

Really? Wow!
