"Sarfati himself has criticised some of his opponents for their lack of appropriate credentials, noting of one researcher, that he was an anthropologist, and therefore "anything he says about radiometric dating should be taken with a large grain of salt."
Having just googled him,--and does he not deserve to be googled?--I noted the above sentence (Wikipedia). So apparently Safarti believes that an anthropologist should not use the tools of anthropology (and geology and paleontology as well, presumably),--like radiometric dating.
I think this is an example of creationist logic.
