Moorad,

As others have said, radioactive decay dating schemes are not based
on evolution. In addition to the resources already mentioned, I'd
recommend:
Davis Young, Christianity and the Age of the Earth (http://
www.amazon.com/dp/093466627X)
Roger Wiens, "Radiometric Dating: A Christian Perspective" (http://
www.asa3.org/ASA/RESOURCES/WIENS.html)

In addition, many non-radiometric evidences for geologic age have
been presented by Dan Wonderly. Two of his books are available on-
line from IBRI:
