Hern, again with your undue anger! In regards the tree issue, look it up man. I've seen the photos. Look up polystrate fossils. If you search, you can find. I'm afraid to say that you are just using your existing knowledge to answer these questions and when you hear of something new, you immediately shout "bullshit". I'm pretty sure that National Geographic even covered this phenomena.
meh, I did lose my kewl but this kid was pissing me off, he was just reading stuff directly from a creationist website and getting a free education from me
There are instances where stratification has occurred at rapid rates. (Such as Mt. St. Helens. Of which you happened to use a photo.) I know there is at least one place where trees run through several layers. I'm not trying to discredit you in any way. I'm just pointing out other creationist talking points. BTW, if you get rid of carbon dating and just use what strata the fossil is found in to date it, how do you date the layer itself? You can't use the fossil. That would be circular reasoning.
Oh, so you're saying that there are other methods of dating the layers? Sorry, I didn't know that. Please edify me. (Now that I think about it, it really wouldn't make sense to date rock via carbon dating. Rock isn't and never was alive. My bad.)
Good shit about Sirius. Overall, great series.

You have a point. If he isn't putting forth any effort of his own, neither should you.

No it's not, the strata the fossil is found in and the carbon data are seperate
not to mention other radiometric dating techniques that I didnt mention
