A definitive resource on
radioactive dating for every
scientist’s library, whether
evolutionist or creationist. It
examines radioisotope
theory, exposes its plaguing
problems, and offers a better
alternative.
The Age Issue• Evolution requires long
periods of time
• Some Christians have accepted evolution
• Effect is to degrade reliability of Scripture
• Is the earth really old?
Assumptions Of Radioisotope
Dating• No initial concentration
of daughter element
• Constant decay rate
• Closed system
RATE Hypotheses
• Accelerated decay has occurred during Creation, at the Curse, and during the Flood.
• Some daughter elements may be primordial.
• Radioactive processes have produced evidence of accelerated decay.
Helium Diffusion Rates

Young World.

“1.5 billion years” of nucleardecay occurred between
4,000and 8,000 years ago.

Biblical Word Studies
by Stephen Boyd, Th.D.
Morphological Word Study
• Statistical comparison of narrative (literal) to poetic (allegorical) passages
• Frequency of preterite, imperfect, and perfect verb forms
• Passages in Exodus 14 & 15, Judges 4 & 5, Genesis 1:1–2:3, Psalm 104, and the Flood
• Highly statistically significant differences in frequencies between narrative and poetic

David and Goliath“I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts.
This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand.That all the earth may know that there is a God in
Israel.The LORD saveth not with sword and spear.
The battle is the LORD’s.He will give you into our hands.”
