  • How does a moron that thinks the Earth is 6000 years old get into congress? This idiot is in charge of eduation funding? Epic fail.

  • For the sake of the future of mankind. Give the american public a desent education! They got people in the White House who thinks the universe is 6000 years old, based on a fairy-tale from the bronze age.

    That is equivalent of beleving that a year is less than a second, based on Arabian nights.

  • Sylvia Allen is 6000 years old.

  • Well, the earth HAS been here 6000 years.

    It's also been here 4.5 billion years before THAT.

  • Sarah Palin is 6000 years old.

  • That dude is pretty nonchalant for a guy that's holding uranium.

  • ya I would put that rock down if I were you

  • The earth has been here for 6000 years, but also a lot longer. She was right but what she meant wasn't.

  • @JimboWizbo It's not concentrated and refined Uranium like you would find in a nuclear plant or bomb. It emits alpha radiation which will deflected by something thin as a piece of paper. Gamma radiation you would need lead to protect yourself from. Alpha radiation is more dangerous if you accidentally get it inside your body by either inhaling radioactive dust or swallowing something that's radiated. I don't believe this piece of rock he's holding emmits much.

  • @marley54fd Too true, hopefully one day we will stop electing people with imaginary friends.

  • @mwowner12 The accuracy of radiometric dating is often checked by comparing the radiometric date with non-radiometric dates of objects, such as historical accounts, tree rings, ice cores, etc. These results repeatedly demonstrate the validity of radiometric dating.

    There are over 40 different radiometric dating methods. Each has it own application, limitations, and dating range.

  • @mwowner12 idiot.
