    Carbon 14 is made from nitrogen in the air being struck by space radiation or whatever. The nitrogen turns into a heavy form of carbon (carbon14) and then they just measure the radioactive half life of carbon 14 particles laying around shit they find in the ground to make a matter of fact statement. Welcome to Science.

    I like to argue with science. I do that.

    So did Einstein. And Keppler, Newton and others. Even your ancestor, Gigantopithecus, understood the laws of science get broken and are replaced by new laws as our knowledge expands. Your 3rd grade science book is not going to stay accurate forever Donnie. Get up to speed.

    OBK just indirectly compared himself to Einstein. That's a new level of special

    There's a bit of truth in this observation, but while science is never completely settled in some areas it's a lot more settled than it was in the time of Keppler, Galileo, and Newton. Those dudes just didn't have the technology to get everything exactly right.

    Somewhat ironic that in a thread about re writing everything we know about science due to a discovery, we would have the settled science team out telling us how science shouldn't be questioned.

    Scientists were vital to White Supremacy. People forget that

    Thanks. We all learned that in Jr High. You may get back to your X-box now.

    You are still in high school, so your science book is probably more up to speed than the quook's. But its still packed with bogus shit, most of which will be disproved 20, 50, 100 years from now. Be more open minded, like btp.
