How accurate is radiometric dating? Discover shocking problems with radiometric dating methods, wild inconsistencies in rock ages, and why rocks of known age often test as millions or billions of years old. Science Conversations exposes the truth about radiometric dating accuracy with real scientific evidence and critical thinking.
Join host Kaysie Vokurka as she interviews a leading scientist to reveal:
• Why different radiometric dating methods (rubidium-strontium, potassium-argon, lead-lead, samarium-neodymium) produce wildly different ages for the same rock sample.
• Documented cases where rocks of known historical age (like Hawaiian lava flows and Mount St. Helens) are dated as billions of years old.
• How selection bias and “cherry-picking” of results shape the accepted geological timeline.
• Evidence from top institutions (Australian National University, peer-reviewed textbooks) challenging the reliability of radiometric dating.
• The need for a critical reevaluation of dating methods in modern science.
If you’re passionate about science, critical thinking, or want to understand the real evidence behind radiometric dating, this episode is for you. Subscribe for more Science Conversations exploring science, faith, and evidence-based discussion.
