Does it take millions of years to form fossils, oil, coal, or diamonds?
Evolution teaches that it takes thousands or even millions of years to form fossils, coal, and oil. And that it takes billions of years to form diamonds. If this were true, then radiometric testing of diamonds and coal should show no traceable evidence of Carbon-14. The Bible teaches us that the earth is only about 6,000 years old. And the recent R.A.T.E. (Radioisotopes and the Age of The Earth) project results show that both coal and diamonds have been found to contain traces of Carbon-14, showing that these had to have formed thousands of years ago—and not millions or billions. It has also been observed that fossils can form in as little as a few weeks. Read the following article for more information: RATE research reveals remarkable results.
