You can believe your bull shyte all you want but it won't change the validity of carbon dating, which is accurate to around 40,000 years back.
All you have to do is read up on carbon dating and see for yourself it has been verified 100 times over.
But of course your cognitive (and I use that term loosely) dissonance will never let you even contemplate actually doing such study for yourself.

Take the time to actually read the article: the last sentence says the dating error was for dates of 20,000 years ago, 3,000 years off. The dates the site we are looking at come in at about half that age so it would follow, if the errors were linear, the error would also come in at half, or about 1500 years, so maximum the date would be 1500 years later, instead of 11,000 years, it would be 9,500 years back. I guess you want to force that to be a big deal. Be my guest on that one.
And of course your reply would be the whole universe is only 6000 years old so I am right and you are wrong, I'm holding my thumbs in my ears (and other orifices) NYA, NYA, NYA, I can't hear you.....
You just want to use any findings as a weapon, you are not interested in the truth since you already THINK you know the truth. You just don't care to understand the scientific process, where things maybe found out to be wrong and if that is proven, then science moves on with that new data in mind.
In this case whether the date is 11K years old or 9.5K years old is not a big deal, the big deal is it is AT LEAST 9,500 years old, 4,000 years before ANY of the pyramids, maybe 6,000 years before the pyramids. They had the place to themselves more or less and built a civilization there. A big one. Maybe the very first one. Maybe there will be found civilizations even older, who knows but the fact is we found that one and all your BS denial won't change that fact. Why don't you go back to trolling the spiritual forum and leave this one to people who are actually intelligent and don't have a theological ax to grind. Your ax has been ground to a nub and you have zero credibility.

It is interesting to me in its own right. Could it really be 12K years old? I wonder if there is later work on this?
Seems like a huge deal if it was verified dated to 12k years old. 10,000 BC. It would lend credence to that movie 10,000 BC!
Originally posted by joe beyserYou can forget about that 12,000 year figure. It was only made up to make the find seem more important. I doubt if it is over 5,000 years old. 😏

Originally posted by RJHindsHard to believe humanity is only 100 of my lifetimes old. Of course there will be older finds. Where did you come up with the 5000 figure?
