C Hess,
Will you just go ahead and tell us what you believe in the bible and about the God of the bible. Don't joke around. Tell us like you really think. However, you can add a respect for God into your declarations so that you don't bring on judgement to yourself for disrespect of God.

If you don't believe anything of the God of the bible, why is that? What is behind your not wanting to believe in the God of the bible?
Do you believe there is a Creator?

Before I sit down and honestly read the bible (with commentaries) how do I know I've got
the right ones? In fact, how do you know you've got the right interpretations? Seems to
me that you christians can't even agree amongst yourselves as to what is meant by this or
that biblical story.

C Hess and All Others,
Find the earliest writings that you can from the people who lived the earliest to the existence of Christ And Who put faith in Christ for salvation and lived as He taught. But don't add to the writings as Catholics or Jehovah's Witnesses. Pay attention to writings about eternal life and what things are not forgiven from God. You must be right about eternal life and forgiveness by God. Being wrong on other spiritual matters will not put you away from God for eternity.

foreign languages is surprisingly non-existent. It took my entire life to master english to
this point, and english is similar to swedish in many ways.
Wait. You're saying that king james', which a vast of majority use as their biblical source
is not entirely true to the original texts?

Do you know what a Geiger Counter is ?
If so explain a little to me about it.
Basically the detector consists of an air gap between two metal plates which
have a large voltage put across them.
When ionising radiation hits air molecules inside the detector it knocks off
electrons to create positive and negative charged particles.
These charged particles are attracted to opposite electric plates and create a
tiny current.
This current is detected and the electronics emits an a click and/or the meter
records the hit.
The number of hits per second gives the local ionising radiation level.

Mass spectrometry, is what you're looking for there.

mathematically using the fact that we know the decay rates of said isotopes.
