The point is that you lied. Now i am sure you didnt just make up the carbon dating thing for spite. I am sure you had heard that somewhere, but lets be fairly reasonable and assume that it was probably told to you by another Christian.
If the information was given to me from another source, how did
I lie?

It wasnt your fault, you dont have a background in physics, or math, or chemistry, or biology.
For a person in Science, you seem to make many assumptions, not educated guesses. I would like to know in your infinite wisdom, how you made this hypothesis/educated guess. I for one, minor in Mathematics and major in Microcomputing Technology. I also have taken many of Physics courses.
If you made this guess based on anything presented in this thread, you have very poor judgement on what you can use. Someones personal/religious beliefs do not hold as a variable in Science.

There is no real science backing up creationism.
Wow, so you admit there is no Science backing up Evolution either? Everything in the Science of Evolution is an educated guess. A guess is not proof. There is no proof of Evolution. Why? ......................This brings me to a normal argument about the bible an creationism. The bible was written by man and therefore
could have been altered by man. Science was devloped by man and
has been altered by man.
In the end there is no argument as neither Science, or the Bible have solid proof/truth.
Here are some quotes from Henry M. Morris, Ph.D.(dont worry, i know you will doubt him)

http://incolor.inetn...rt/imp-107a.htm Evolutionists often insist that evolution is a proved fact of science, providing the very framework of scientific interpretation, especially in the biological sciences. This, of course, is nothing but wishful thinking. Evolution is not even a scientific hypothesis, since there is no conceivable way in which it can be tested.
Science is knowledge -- that which can be demonstrated and observed and repeated. Evolution cannot be proved, or even tested; it can only be believed.

Sir Isaac Newton, a British scientist, once had a skillful mechanic make him a miniature replica of the solar system, with balls representing the planets geared together by cogs and belts so as to move in harmony when cranked. Later, Newton was visited by a scientist friend who did not believe in God.
One day as Newton sat reading in his study with his mechanism on a large table near him, his infidel friend stepped in. Scientist that he was, he recognized at a glance what was before him. Stepping up to it, he slowly turned the crank, and with undisguised admiration watched the heavenly bodies all move in their relative speed in their orbits. Standing off a few feet he exclaimed, "My, what an exquisite thing this is! Who made it?"
Without looking up from his book Newton answered, "Nobody!" Quickly turning to Newton, the infidel said, "Evidently you did not understand my question. I ask who made it?" Looking up, Newton solemnly assured him that nobody made it, but that the aggregation of the matter so much admired had just happened to assume the form it was in. But then the astonished infidel replied with some heat, "You must think I am a fool! Of course someone made it, and he is a genius, and I would like to know who he is."
Laying his book aside, Newton arose and laid a hand on his friend's shoulder. "This thing is but a puny imitation of a much grander system, whose laws you know, and I am not able to convince you that this mere toy is without designer and maker; yet you profess to believe that the great original from which the design is taken has come into being without either designer or maker! Now tell me by what sort of reasoning do you reach such an incongruous conclusion?"

Read that a few times so you can grasp what is really being said in the end.

So your statement seems to suggest that people who use science to tout truths are actually lieing all the time, re-adjusting their lies to fit a new changed circumstance, and then continue on that lie.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
Maybe before you continue to throw stones, you stop to realize, you have been lying just as much as anyone else.
