[edit] Rapid-decay theory

Moved from User talk:Ec5618:

You placed a clean-up tag on this article. Please explain on the talk page what needs cleaning. I am removing the tag because it seems perfectly balanced to me - it describes the theory and then gives a rubbuttal reference. BlueValour 03:41, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Balance? I added a cleanup tag. Perhaps the cleanup tag isn't sufficient, but it is certainly valid.

I have added further rebuttal text that might meet your concerns. BlueValour 03:46, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

The 'theory' is poorly described in any case. "It is based on the assumption that God created Earth out of water, with all of the molecules' spins aligned creating a substantial magnetic field." So, the Earth is water? And why am is it not explained that the point of this 'theory' is to explain the gradual decrease of the Earth's magnetic field, not the presence of that field? -- Ec5618 03:50, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

O my. I'm sorry, but that's hardly an inprovement. A factual statement about the age of the Earth, in an article about an alternate 'theory' just won't do. -- Ec5618 03:50, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments. I have done some rewriting to address them. BlueValour 04:20, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
