Radioisotopes and the age of the earth. [Volume II], Results of a young-earth creationist research initiative

"In 1997 an eight year research initiative to investigate this very issue was launched. Entitled Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth (RATE), and staffed by experts qualified in relevant fields, it attempted to test the validity of radioisotope dating of rocks, source of the main evidence for deep time. ... The RATE book published after the first three years revealed the questionable state of the radioisotope dating methods and proposed experiments which could shed some light in the darkness. The next five years were occupied by conducting those experiments and analyzing the data and theory. This books presents the results. ... Does this work prove the young earth model? Of course not, as no historical reconstruction can be fully proved. But it does show that of the two viewpoints the young earth model is better supported and more consistent with all the radioisotope evidence."--Prologue, v.2, pages xxvi, xxviii This book presents part two of the research results of an eight-year project titled Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth (RATE). A previous volume presenting part one of the research was published in 2000, titled Radioisotopes and the age of the Earth : a young-earth creationist research initiative. RATE Project sponsors included Institute for Creation Research and Creation Research Society, with start-up support from Answers in Genesis Ministries. Researchers included seven scientists and one biblical Hebrew scholar: Dr. Steven A. Austin, Dr. Andrew Snelling, Dr. John Baumgardner, Dr. Eugene F. Chaffin, Dr. Donald B. DeYoung, Dr. Russell Humphreys, Dr. Larry Vardiman and Dr. Steven W.
