Why is the Scientific world hiding this?
Re: Scientific world hiding this....Dinosaurs ONLY 40,000 years old, NOT 65million!!!
Young earth creationist website has absolutely zero credibility.
Its like posting a link a from flat earthers (yep some lunatics believe that still) and then saying look the earth is flat.

I guess we know what the issue is, don't we? Carbon dating is only good for something as old as maybe 50,000. It is useless to use for something that existed millions of years ago. -__-
The article itself says the following about Carbon-14:
"The theoretical limit for C-14 dating is 100,000 years using AMS, but for practical purposes it is 45,000 to 55,000 years. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. If dinosaur bones are 65 million years old, there should not be one atom of C-14 left in them."
Duh. The C-14 atoms found are obviously contaminants. The margin of error is so great here that it shouldn't even have been published.

Theorist, I believe (and might be wrong) that the 65 million figure came not from carbon dating, but the geological locations of fossils, and build up of sediments, and other indications that determined that it probably happened that many years ago

Ok so I was right as always. This is a cut and paste from a book that I am reading. This clarifys why scientists believe that dinosaurs died 65 millions years ago.
"“There is a layer in the geologic record called the K-T boundary. The K-T was laid down about 65 million years ago. Below the K-T there are dinosaur fossils, but above it there are none. In 1980, a scientist named Walter Alvarez, discovered that the K-T layer contains an element called iridium. Iridium is very rare on Earth, but is common in meteors.
This layer of iridium is found everywhere on Earth. This indicates that a large meteor struck the Earth, was vaporized and thrown up into the atmosphere with millions of tons of debris. This cloud of debris covered the whole Earth. This would have the effect of blocking out sunlight and cooling off the Earth for years, possibly decades."

The precedent has been set. If the Obamas and the Sanderss can confuse millions with billion, why not thousands with millions?
