I'm trying to remember the name of the method, but it is used more frequently for dating older objects, as it has a much longer half life.

In terms of the topic itself. Creationism and Evolution are not mutually exclusive. Both can be correct, and both can be wrong.

I do think those who are putting everything together in one timeframe are overlooking a lot of scientific evidence, stretching a tiny minority (usually found to have problems in research technique) into their whole theory. The evidence supporting the existence of a long timeframe strongly outweighs the evidence that doesn't. I don't even know of any theologians that are trying to say the earth isn't a few billion years old.

Personally, I think evolution did occur over eons, and that it was directed by a Creator.
