No. And no.
@johnZ, until you take the time to actually learn the fundamentals of the science—instead of just calling it “fraudulent”—you will remain in this cycle of denying what you don’t understand.
Investigate the word isochron and you will begin to see why your claim is exasperating to real scientists.
Dr. Todd Wood Laments YECism’s Honesty Problem
We should be empathetic towards those who get their “science” from YEC ministry websites. These are the very practices which Young Earth Creationists like Dr. Todd Wood lament in their blogs. Indeed, I recommend several of Dr. Wood’s classic essays including:
The truth about evolution
Evolution still not in crisis
(Yes, our topic is “polystrate fossils” but we all know why is an issue which evolution-deniers like to bring up.)
I remember reading Dr. Wood’s essay about his discouragement about counter-productive pseudo-science arguments which either misunderstand or misrepresent isochron dating methodologies. (Unfortunately, I don’t have that URL available to me at the moment.) Dr. Wood acknowledges that bad arguments often work well when preaching to the Young Earth Creationist choir----but long-term they entirely destroy any possible credibility the movement might have in influencing real scientists.
Sadly, Dr. Wood is heavily criticized and even despised by origin’s industry ministry leaders. Here is an example of his candor which got him a lot of flack from his own Young Earth Creationist brethren:
Evolution is not a theory in crisis. It is not teetering on the verge of collapse. It has not failed as a scientific explanation. There is evidence for evolution, gobs and gobs of it. It is not just speculation or a faith choice or an assumption or a religion. It is a productive framework for lots of biological research, and it has amazing explanatory power. There is no conspiracy to hide the truth about the failure of evolution. There has really been no failure of evolution as a scientific theory. It works, and it works well. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
Dr. Wood understands that honesty is a much better long-term strategy for the movement. He refuses to blindly defend the pseudo-science of origins industry leaders and so he regularly struggles for funding, even though he is among the very very few Young Earth Creationists who has a relevant and legitimate PhD in a field of biological science.
I still keep up with a few long-time friends from the Young Earth Creationist movement and when speaking privately they all lament their embarrassment at having to bite their tongues and allow “the non-scientist loons” (as one of them calls the big name leaders) to speak for the movement—or else their Christian college jobs would be in serious jeopardy. (Somehow, Ben Stein and the EXPELLED film crew never show up to defend their academic freedom!)
The Pitfalls of Misunderstanding the Perspicuity of Scripture
Yes, it’s fun to imagine that all of the world’s scientists are frauds and that God has endowed particular Christ-followers with special insights due to their choosing to be on the “right side” of the issues. It often arises from a misunderstanding of the Reformation emphasis on the perspicuity of scriptures. Whatever the causes, it has been a recurrent pitfall in the history of the Church. Later centuries of believers always judge it harshly—as they should.
Those who remain oblivious of history are doomed to repeat it applies to many facets of life.
Those who feel called to deny some area of science would do well to reallocate even a small fraction of the time they spend on denying the science to actually learning about the science.
