How this guys calculate the years of this fossils that stretches to hundreds of million still baffles me.
I wonder oooo..... even the earth itself has not lived up to 330 million years. Abi they meant to say 330yrs?

Wait. All these discoveries makes me question the authenticity of the Bible's story of creation

I can clear that up for you but that would be one helluva long discourse! Both the scientists and the Bible are correct. Although the scientists can get the dates wrong, they are largely correct in saying that the world is millions and millions of years old. All these things are properly recorded in the same Bible, but you need to be diligent enough to search it all out in the Bible, hidden in plain sight.

I am seeing a lot of idiots up there saying how did the scientist know the number of years, I guess doing chemistry in secondary school was a waste of time for them, if it is to shout hallelujah and say "my enemy die by fire", they would remember.

Bro, calm down.
Not everyone did chemistry.
It's good that they're asking, at least it shows they want to learn. So it's up to you to give them an explanation of how the whole thing works.
Don't be like some people whom you'll ask to prove or explain something and they'll start reading out bible verses to prove their point.

The dude up there is a genius.. He is probably not using glo network like me.
Oyinbo self dey confused. How come they keep coming up with different dates after discovering some fossils buried somewhere? Is there any precise instrument for measuring the age of these discoveries or its just mere estimation?

Naija Wetin concern us with fossil when the whole country is in total confusion? .. Yesterday, slim shaddy was booed in Borno State and boko boys attacked the same area the second time.

Abeg make una help me tell that overhyped Fela wannabe that a drum that sounds louder is about to burst.

They usually check the depth and formation of the rocks to determine age.

The institution of lies that brought you the phone you are using to browse the Internet right now and to talk to someone on the opposite side of the earth in real time.

The institution of lies that is able to fly up in a plane and even space and help cure seemingly incurable diseases.
Why not reject all this institution of lies have to offer and live strictly on the institution of truth - your church or mosque?

Absolute Age dating using Radiocarbon isotopes... 14C or carbon-14 is most often used

You are the one that seems more confused. This world is the planet earth, I don't understand how you can seperated the 2.
This world, planet earth is estimated to be about 4.5 billion years old.
America viz a viz the United States of America was created or got their independence in 1776, so it's 243 years old. Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas in 1492, that's 527 years ago.

Earth is 4.6 billion years old.
They calculate age using the method called "carbon dating".

Just search Google and read about it..
If you did any science or Engineering course at University, they teach you in 1st year Chemistry also..

Infact open your YouTube now, search for it and learn.

Carbon dating can only be used to date something not more than 50,000 years. Other methods are used to date objects much older.

Dating something millions of years is done by analysing the rock formations or sediments (strata) in which it is found.

Now can see the result of cheating to pass exams. People just go to school and are not educated in any way.
This is the foolishness of Nigeria.
Your education is for your own good. You are not doing anybody any favour by going to school. If you don't understand, ask the teacher. Find the book and read it.

Don't white evangelical christains believe and utter worse absurdities than these ones here.

Then beware of White Evangelist.
The church was ONE before all these demonstrations and evangelist broke out. Each person with his agenda to form his own lies.
Go back to the original church. Nobody lies in that one. If they make a mistake, they tell you openly.

You don't have to be this cocky. I learnt this because I studied engineering and had to take a Chemistry course in my first year at uni. Something to do with carbon dating.

Everyone didn't do chemistry so how are they supposed to know? You that know tell them gently or with proof...

Please don't put words in my mouth. I don't mention Carbon 12 Isotope. I'm not competing with you on knowledge. Search YouTube, do your research IF YOU ARE really interested in learning.
I just have a rough idea from 100 level chemistry I did in 1997.
I'm not a scientist.

Please stop advertising your ignorance. All the lands on earth are not the same age. Some new lands are forming right now, while others are disappearings in the oceans.
Even in the article, the site was said to be underwater millions of years ago. Even the Sahara desert was under the ocean some 7 million years ago.
