Vernon: <<Neither am I convinced by the arguments for evolution. The assumption of
constancy in the rates of decay of radioactive isotopes suggests that
the 'old earth' hypothesis - and with it, the theory of evolution itself
- is built on sand.>>

Not at all. First of all the constancy of decay rates is not only very well supported by science and observation but there have also been alternative dating methods showing a similarly old universe. Surely a 10,000 year or less earth history is not supportable.

If you have evidence or a theory that the decay rates were not constant, please explain your reservations or admit that no such evidence exists.
