Frequently Asked Questions – Creation Moments

Doesn’t radiometric dating prove billions of years?

The chemical elements of matter consist of very stable atoms, such as silicon, carbon, iron, uranium, etc. However, certain elements also have an unstable or radioactive form that, under natural conditions, decays or breaks down into “daughter”...

Does carbon-14 dating prove millions of years?

The carbon-14 method is slightly different from other dating methods. Normal carbon has an atomic weight of 12. Carbon-14 is the unstable form produced by cosmic ray bombardment of nitrogen in the earth’s upper atmosphere. The C-14 combines with oxy...

Don’t distant stars prove an old Earth?

This has been a puzzle to many people. If light from the most distant stars has taken millions of light years to reach us, how can the earth be only thousands of years old? The belief that “light from the most distant stars has taken millions of yea...

Was the Genesis Flood worldwide or was there really a series of local floods?

Evolutionists believe that the Earth is billions of years old and that the Genesis Flood was local. The arguments used to claim these unimaginable eras of time are based upon early geological speculations of the history of the Earth and are seldom, if eve...

Where did the different races come from?

Adam and Eve carried all the traits of all the races in their genetic information just as we today have genetic information from our parents which is not expressed in us. The genetic information is there within us, and it may show itself in the next gener...

Was Noah’s Flood global or local?

The most detailed account of Noah’s Flood is given in the Book of Genesis. Here there seems little doubt that the Flood had to be truly global and not just “global” in the minds of one minor tribe of people: All the high hills under the ...

Where do the billions of years come from in Darwinian evolution?

The history of an idea is always revealing. In the 16th century, the Europeans began to discover the colored peoples of the world. They assumed that Noah and his family were white, so for the colored peoples to have survived the Genesis Flood, it must hav...

What’s wrong with thinking that each day of Creation Week was 1,000 years?

Genesis chapter one is a summary of God’s creation and begins in verses one and two with the creation of space, then the Earth with the waters. Later that same day [YOM], God created light [OR], saw that it was all good and declared that the evening...

How can we see light from distant stars if the universe is less than 10,000 years old?

One of the primary evidences claimed for an old universe – and, by implication, an Earth billions of years old – is that light from the most distant stars can be observed on Earth today. It is argued that at the known speed or velocity of light it wil...

How can the Earth be young when scientists tell us that rocks are billions of years old?

Textbooks, popular science articles and museum displays are always careful to include and even emphasize the age in Earth history in which early creatures lived. Just how do scientists know the age? Have they somehow determined the age of the actual fossi...
