How does this prejudice the geologist? The only thing he has done so
far is to determine the sequence order of the strata in the area from
top to bottom by mapping which rocks rest on which rocks.

Because at issue is the credibility of the use of dating methods
itself.

That's not an issue to the Geologist, because the Geologist, unlike
yourself, knows something about geology.

I guess all my studying from books and that geology course amounts to
nothing.


Well if you HAD studied it may have been something - but clearly you
didn't because you still post things that PROVE you didn't.


And maybe I should return those library books and burn my 4
geology textbooks.


No. What you should do is READ them and LEARN.



There are lots of issues at work here.

Such as? Your inabilty to accept facts that contradict your beliefs,
perhaps?

I still can't get a straight foreward answer from you.


You get were straight answers from a lot of people - but you ignore
them, you don't learn from what people tell you. You keep making the
same errors over and over and over again.


But the fact remains
that if the geologist knows the position of the strata he could arrange
it that the "wrong" dates be discarded.

Only if that geologist wants to end his career in disgrace, and in a big
hurry. Guess who employs the majority of geologists? Oil companies.
Do you think the Oil companies are going to spend millions of dollars of
their money on the expert opinion of someone who knowingly discards data?
Do you think that an Oil company that spends that kind of money exploring
for oil, on falsified information, is going to stay in business for long?

This is the same argument that I've heard from "evolution science"
people from the 80's. The fact be told you can discard the geologic
"ages" and still be able to predict where oil is to be found based on
the catastrophic model. I've pointed out to you before, that you can
look at a chain of mountains in California and follow them southward
and expect to find oil there because that's where oil is found. That
pattern seems to follow other parts of the US as well. Follow the chain
of mountains.


Duh! Ok bud, where are the mountains in the North Sea?

Where are the mountains in East and South Texas?

I always used to think Everest was in Texas - given that they always
claimed they had the biggest of everything in their state. The I found
out they had the biggest liers as well :)
