[asa] AIG does it again

Here is AIG's weekly feeble attempt at "science." Note how there are NO
names used or citations to the literature. That seems to be typical of
their blurbs.

Q: Some Australian scientists reported they’d found an Aboriginal
site to
be 176,000 years old. Don’t solid dates like this disprove the Bible?

A: The problem is, most people don’t realize how “solid” these dates
actually are.

Huge publicity was given to the report that scientists had dated this
Aboriginal site to be around 176,000 years old. However, some
independent
experts have looked at the data and said that on the basis of their
experiments, this date should be changed to 20,000 years! What an
incredible difference—156,000 years different than what the other
scientists had stated.

Then, another scientist said that when he checked the data on a sample
dated at 50,000 years, his figure would be 5,000 years or less! So much
for “solid” dates!

So what dates are solid? The answers can be obtained from the only truly
reliable history book: the Bible. Scientists continually flip-flip on
their dates, overturning the dates that were once considered solid.
Knowing that the Bible says Noah’s Flood occurred about 4,500 years ago
helps us understand that Australian Aboriginal history has taken
place in
under 4,500 years—and that the Bible, not science, gives us a solid
foundation for understanding history.
