if watch it again to count how many times he said stupid but i cant muster the effort, ill just deal generally with his attack on radioactive dating,
he complains that radioactive dating cant be used to date things billions of years old,well, if only because as he successfully points out,how little of the radioactive molecules are present to begin with and detecting ever decreasing amounts can only go so far. well, thats established fact, no scientist in their right mind would do so. because all techniques have their limit, you wouldnt try to disect a fly with a hacksaw, so to speak.
he then sights many false recent dating, such as the snail being millions of years old, well, seeing as he seems not to know this point already i feel obliged to point out that a living snail cant be carbon dated, well duh, thats already accepted fact aswell, carbon dating doesnt work for things younger than about 200 years old, but this doesnt mean radiocarbon dating doesnt work, thats like saying because a butter knife cant cut through bricks that its useless, when its just not what its used for.

heres some releif that people will probably need after watching that epic stupidity from kent hovind
