 |  |  | radiometric dating: Encyclopedia - UraniumUranium is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol U and atomic number 92. Heavy, silvery-white, toxic, metallic, naturally radioactive, pyrophoric, and teratogenic uranium belongs to the actinide series and its isotope 235U is used as the fuel for nuclear reactors and the explosive material for nuclear weapons. Depleted uranium is used in incindiary projectile weapons. Uranium is commonly found in very small amounts in rocks, soil, water, plants, and animals (including humans).

 |  |  | radiometric dating: Encyclopedia - Chick PublicationsChick Publications is an American publishing company run by Jack Chick which produces and markets religious pamphlets, DVDs, VCDs, videos, books, a poster, and (most famously) comic tracts in many languages. The publications promote and seek to win converts to a Protestant fundamentalist view. While some express views that are generally accepted within Christian theology, e.g.[1], Chick is most famous for his publications on issues that are highly controversial even within Christianity, such as Occultism, Freemasonry [2], Catholicism ...

 |  |  | radiometric dating: Encyclopedia II - Radionuclide - OriginNaturally occurring radionuclides originate mainly from the interiors of stars. Some, such as uranium, were formed directly in stars, and are still present because their half-lives are so long that they have not yet completely decayed. Radiogenic isotopes, such as carbon-14, are present because they are formed by the decay of longer-lived elements (this is how all the helium currently available was formed: although it is not radioactive, it escapes from the Earth easily, so helium is obtained from underground reservoirs).
Artificially produced radionuclides can be produced by nuclear reactors, particle acce ...

 |  |  | radiometric dating: Encyclopedia II - Creationist cosmologies - Arguments currently used by creationists
Creationist cosmologies - Problems with the Big Bang.
Proponents of creationism often try to discredit current scientific understanding by referring to what they perceive to be discontinuities in scientific theories and observations. As such, some proponents of creationist cosmologies continue to offer arguments deriving from more sophisticated claims of inaccurate astronomy. In particular, these creationists try to discredit mainstream theories by referring to actual scientific controversies and debates about th ...

 |  |  | radiometric dating: Encyclopedia II - Evidence of evolution - Evidence from palaeontologyWhen organisms die, they are often decomposed rapidly or consumed by scavengers, leaving no permanent evidences of their existence. Occasionally, some organisms become preserved in some ways. The preserved remains or traces of organisms from a past geological age embedded in rocks by natural processes are called fossils. They are extremely important as they provide direct evidence of evolution and detailed information on the evolutionary history of life on Earth. Palaeontology is the study of past life on the Earth based on fossil records an ...

 |  |  | radiometric dating: Encyclopedia II - Flood geology - ProcessesIf the global flood actually occurred, then it would have had a radical effect on geology, and evidence of that flood would be observable today, making the idea falsifiable. Mainstream scientists hold that the evidence available is sufficient to conclusively falsify the notion of a recent global flood.
Eighty percent of the Earth's crust is covered by sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rocks are formed as particles of sediment settle out of air, ice, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension. As sediment deposition builds up, ove ...
