the evidence favors the sudden appearance of multiple species, then species radiating out of Siberia and later from Turkey.

I’m still very interested in the evidence supporting species radiation from Siberia and Turkey within the last 6000 years.

The fluctuations were minimal and not in any of the isotopes used for isochronic dating.

Please provide any supporting evidence of this hypothesis.

I never put forward any hypothesis. I merely asked two questions. They studied a minimal effect on short life isotopes, but what was the effect on long life isotopes? And would historical changes to the magnetic field also have an effect on decay rates considering these rates are affected by solar flares, and the magnetic fields protects us from solar radiation?

If you have no clear answers to both those questions then you cannot be confident in the time frames you suggest, they are mere theoretical timeframes based on the old fashioned idea that decay rates are constant.

Oldest skeletal remains in Siberia:  https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.astrobio.net/alien-life/siberian-paleontologists-discovered-the-oldest-macro-skeleton-remains/amp/

Wikipedia "All trilobites are thought to have originated in present-day Siberia, with subsequent distribution and radiation from this location."

Denisovans, a pre-Neanderthal race was there:

Ediacaran biota is mainly from east Siberia and Eastern Europe:

If you look at the Y haplogroup world map, the greatest human genetic diversity occurs in Southern Turkey/ northern Iraq

Scientists are puzzled why a number of extinct and early mammal species first appearance was  concentrated in a certain location in Turkey:

The first temple is in Turkey:

So we have this strange phenomenon of human civilisation and early mammals appearing in Turkey. With no fossil precursors for all those mammals. Just out of nowhere, multiple species appear there and nowhere else and go extinct with no trace where they came from.

The fact that independent radiometric testing using different isotopes consistently gives similar age estimates is sufficient reason for confidence. The Purdue study (which has not been reproduced, to my knowledge), indicated a fluctuation of perhaps 0.1% in decay rates - obviously insufficient to significantly alter radiometric dating techniques. There is no sufficient evidence to the contrary. Science is based on evidence, not hypothesis unsupported by evidence.

Great, you have supplied some interesting pieces of work, but what you are lacking is any sort of evidence that these all occurred within the last 6000 years.

You are not facing the fact that the measured changes were for short-life isotopes. What is the Purdue effect on long life isotopes?  You should be curious about this, because it can put the entire concept of radiometric dating into jeopardy.  You refer to date consensus, I agree in some cases there is consensus and therefore radiometric dating is a reasonable measurement of RELATIVE timescales. But no-one actually knows how the Purdue effect, affects long-life istotopes so the actual dates are completely in doubt.  

In addition if a sudden slight increase of solar radiation can SLOW decay, what effect will a permanent blockage of much solar radiation have during times of increased magnetic field strength?  May I suggest a sure-fire method on how to face these questions?  Insist you are correct with no evidence to support your position, and put your head-in-the-sand. It's working for you so far :) 

In the meantime radiometric dating is completely in doubt. Uncertain territory.

I don't have to prove time-periods, because radiometric dating is in doubt.

And you are not facing the fact that there is ZERO evidence that suggests that current radiometric dating techniques are not dependable.

There is no evidence indicating it is in doubt. If you choose to disagree with the evidence, it is a matter of faith, not science. It is unreasonable to scientifically disagree without a reason to do so. It is important to recognize that a belief in Young Earth Creation is due to your faith, not due to contradictory scientific evidence.

Let us agree to disagree, the Purdue effect was minor on short-life isotopes, we don't know it's effect on long-life isotopes, so the Purdue effect puts great doubt on the dependability of long-life isotopes until the effect is measured.  And magnetic fields have to be taken into account, because the Purdue effect is based on changes to the penetration of solar radiation, and magnetic fields have a strong  influence on the penetration of solar radiation.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
