    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    Some definitions of science require observable and repeatable conditions, but by this it is not meant that the past cannot be studied. Rather testing of the evidence is the focus. The phenomena itself does not need to be repeated before our eyes. Each piece of evidence that converges to form a...

    Drop it, boy, drop it. Is the study of electron fields pseudoscience?

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    So, writings of a human are more reliable than evidence from the past ensconced in rock? Speak, boy, speak!

    So, the study of how electrons behave isn't science? Fetch, boy.

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    Nope. Pseudoscience is science done badly or dishonestly, like not using a control group or other control measures, claiming correlation alone to be causation, or using a paper's caveats and limitation sections to draw conclusions unsupported by the study. Several observations can be used to...

    That is my interpretation. It also refers to the fact that, the decision cannot be appealed to the Supreme Court. Did you write this?

    Your insistence on knowing the unknowable is a dodge. Their agreement is critical. Why would they agree unless they are measuring the same thing? But, we do not need to know it to make reliable estimates. I thought you agreed that sometimes in science we tolerate indirect observation. You...

    31 Reasons To Reject The Jab

    It means that the determination of whether to impeach or not can be made on issues greater than just the facts of the offense. So, considering the impact on the country and the impact on one's own career is fair game.

    31 Reasons To Reject The Jab

    Due process is a term of art in law, and has a specific meaning involving notice and opportunity to be heard by a court and to have substantive Constitutional rights abided by. In the context of impeachment the due process is political and the "court" is congress. Trump was given due...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    Sorry, no. The chance that there would be agreement by chance alone is tiny. And, when we have multiple occurrence of agreement, it is virtually impossible. The Mississippi flows at rate that can be measured. We can estimate how far a body can drift over a particular period of time and find...

    The concurrence strongly argues against that they could be bogus or coincidental. Unless you are accusing the researchers of just fudging things, you are showing a general lack of understanding of inferential statistics. Stop with the insults. If we can establish that isotopes decay...

    Explain the similarity, genius. Different isotopes have different decay rates and some overlap in their range, so they can be compared in many situations. If they concur, that is great corroborating evidence. It is a wonder why you call other's ideas fairy tales, just-so stories, and...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    Bunk! Radiometric dating"s assumptions are no more difficult to accept than the assumptions we have in regard to a yardstick. You do not have to isolate the origins of the wheel to drive a car!!

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    This is actually a semi-rational statement. Scientific Theories contain overarching organizing principles but also have a cutting edge. The cutting edge needs continual correction.
