Robert V. Gentry responds to Wise's criticisms regarding polonium halos and their implications for a creation model of Earth history. Gentry asserts that polonium halos are widespread and easily studied, refuting the claim that they are difficult to find or require museum specimens. He clarifies that his model does not limit polonium halos solely to granites, having previously reported them in pegmatites, fluorite, and cordierite. Gentry challenges the use of conventional uniformitarian dating methods to establish the age sequence of polonium-halo-containing rocks, stating there's no scientific basis for assuming decay rate constancy. He emphasizes that granite synthesis has not been achieved in laboratories, particularly for hand-sized specimens or macroscopic biotite crystals, and that synthesized minerals lack polonium halos present in natural granite. Gentry proposes that granite melts in the Earth cool to form rhyolite, not granite, challenging the uniformitarian view of granite formation and its assumed role in metamorphism. He reasserts that the "parentless" polonium halos in rocks provide unique evidence against natural formation processes, and his creation model explains metamorphosed sedimentary rocks adjacent to granites through hot geothermal fluids during granite uplift, not cooling granite melts. He concludes that Wise's criticisms do not present serious geological problems for his creation model.
