The New Encyclopaedia Britannica (Macropaedia, 1976, Vol. 5, p. 508)
stated: That it was clear that carbon-14 dates lack the accuracy that
traditional historians would like to have. Therefore, if these dates are
off just 10%, that would be something like 450 years over the last 4500.
If they are off 20%, that would be nearly 900 years in the last 4500,
which could easily account for your alleged discrepancy. >>

All right then, what are you going to do about Cro Magnon cave paintings,
which pre-date the flood by thousands of years? How would they manage to
survive a flood?
