Originally posted by robbie carrobieI have no doubt there is some historical accuracy to the Bible, i'm not that naive. But to say all of it is true is patently absurd.
i was referring to archaeological evidence which verifies biblical accounts, like the fall of Tyre, the destruction of Babylon, indeed i would like to ask you, which of these is a fairy tale as you so eloquently put it?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieWe're back to writing again, i knew that was going to crop up.
perhaps there is written evidence earlier than six thousand years, perhaps there are settlements older than six thousand years? indeed as it has been pointed out, it seems extraordinarily strange that humans should have been evolving for several thousand years for them suddenly to start writing things down only as recently as 3000 years ago, yes , v ...[text shortened]... esus as a liar, therefore we can fry these other fish first before we tackle these other issues?
Fry deucer, Raj and divegeester first. I'll be waiting.
An interesting find. Just type in on Google or where ever and type in "How long has man been on earth?"
I went thru the first 8 or so and oh my!!!!! Anywhere from what the bible says which is about 6K years and then once you get away from biblical statements and into the scientific field it goes all over the map. From about 200,000 to 600,000 to 800,000 and all the way up to 4,000,000. Lol.
That is crazy. They say we have proof of evolution but they don't even come close to how and when we became something that is human or might be human or kinda looks like a human.
Very funny stuff to read. I'm now convienced evolution is a fact!!!!!

That's exactly how i feel about your posts.
Originally posted by Rajk999The bible does not say "6000" years because when it was written was oh a couple thousand years ago or less.

So you'll have to go back in the postings here to see the link from Jesus back to Adam. Then you'd have to get out your calculator and research when all were born and died and just do the math.
Originally posted by galveston75There aren't any discrepancies, the date is around 200,000yrs ago.
Care to defend why there is such discrepancies about those eons of time? And I think it's amusing that you demand hard proof from us but yet there is eons of hard proof missing with evolution.
The only place that 'eons of hard proof missing with evolution' is in your indoctrinated mind.

Originally posted by galveston75God told Adam to replenish the earth. So there must have been life and possibly humans before Adam. Therefore you cannot tell how long humans have been on the earth from the Biblical account of creation.
