CreationWiki response:

Any evidence that points in this direction assumes the accuracy of evolutionary dating methods, whereas it could better be interpreted as evidence against those evolutionary dating methods.

As Biblical Creationists we do not accept the Vedic scripture.

This is an over generalization. Talk Origins is dismissing the entire contents of this 900+ page book with one sentence. It is hardly an adequate refutation. The fact that a cite is old does not make it obsolete. While some of their cited finds do have problems, most don't.  They also deal with some of the claims made against their cited finds. Talk Origins only presents a refutation of a small fraction of the cited finds so their blanket statement is unjustified

Actually, the vast majority of interpretations of evidence agree with Evolution. It's amazing how superior one can look when you can out-spend the competition by several orders of magnitude. Creationists not only need to fund their own research, but through the U.S. tax code they are forced to fund the research of evolutionists as well. That's quite an advantage for evolutionists.

This also constitutes blatant "elephant hurling" -- making a broad claim and backing it up with sweeping generalities instead of fact.
