Historian says Oct. 23 marks creation plus 6,010 years

Whether or not WND is wrong, I don't know, but when they wrong, boy do they go all out...

They aren't always wrong.

Sometimes they're right way ahead of anyone else.

Sometimes they're batsh*t crazy.

This would fall under the latter and not the former.

Be careful that isn't construed as "They are right on things I agree with."

Personally, WND now get filed under sources I'll never accept.

I learned not to exclude unusual sources of news when The National Enquirer broke the story on Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky.

They're called WorldNutDaily for a reason.

Oh...my good old buddy Jimmy Ussher's still be quoted? That's fabulous.

Ussher is still a reasonable resource once you get past the start. When this was written one must keep in mind that the FLAT EARTH theory had not be discarded that long or the notion that the Earth was the centre of the Universe.

It sorta like making the proposition that possibly that Jesus was married and had progeny, and then escaping without somebody taking umbridge.

Brilliant. Like Noah's flood in exactly 2348 B.C.? Or how about the Exodus? Biblical scholars (like Yamauchi and Noth) question the date, route and even historicity of such an event.

Perhaps I should clarify the start.......

There is no clear notion as to date of the Noah/Deluge event. The only reason to suspect it was an actual event is that all cultures seem to have a Noah-like story.

It cannot even be established when the exodus took place-----it is reasonable to believe it was an actual event but it is suspected that the ancient egyptians edited it out. I would classify the deluge and exodus as pre-historic.

Classical Doric Greek history and Alexandrian history is likely fairly accurate. Trojan war lore seems based solely upon Homer.

Basically the further you go back the fuzzier it gets.

There is a lot of merit to suspect that the destruction of Sodom and Gomorah was an actual event and appears to have all the hallmarks of a nuclear attack. The Jesus freaks have a lot of trouble with that but then they have a lot of trouble with a lot of matters.

Thats bullshit....

I created you pipsqueaks exactly perzo'nis years ago. (your years)


The Goa'uld system Lords sanctioned this date as being beneficial to the almighty Annubis. (myself)

I also created Bullshit, Apeshit, Goatshit, etc.


This Usher person is just another Jaffa servant.

Jaffa Cree.

A common creationist fallacy

Translation: let’s try and rationalize your predictable historical missteps.



Actually, as I already stated, Biblical scholars debate the entire event and that includes components of the narrative that even suggest Egyptian captivity, the date and even the base components. Again, as I’ve already explained (which was lost on you) Yamauchi and Noth question the entire event’s validity. Yamauchi goes on to lament, “it is Biblical archaeology’s ‘greatest failure’ that ‘neither Egyptian nor ISRAELITE data have been able to settle the issue of date, route and nature of the Exodus.” Sorry, read up on it as Noth even question whether there was even a captivity at all. Darn that pesky education thing, huh?



Who cares what you classify anything as…their dates and historicity are suspect.



Correction. Aspects of Hellenic history are accurate whereas others lack credible primary evidence.




And we slip into tinfoil hat territory, complete with anachronisms and crackpot musings. Nice.

You're right. Anyone that has taken an archaeological course knows about the massive problems inherent with that one that an alleged catastrophic worldwide deluge is a common cultural thread

How do the religious nuts deal with the fact that Jericho, one of the most famous biblical cities, has been continually inhabited for 11 000 years, almost twice as long as the extra crunchies claim the world has existed?
