In reply to the discussion: Every archeological find in history proves the bible is true [View all]ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)17. Ah, but what about Gobekli Tepe?
10th century BCE puts that a lot earlier than the creation of the Earth according to xtians. What's interesting to me is that the Flood (yeah, that one) according to research happened 7,500 years ago: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/evidence-for-a-flood-102813115/ That puts it at about the same time as creation. So first there were dinosaurs, but they only lasted a couple of years until the flood? Or did God get Noah and his family to plant dinosaur bones to throw us off? Just what is going on here? I should pay a visit to the creationist museum to learn the truth!

That's funny, because IIRC there's no archeological proof for anything before King David.

People are indoctrinated. When you grow up with these ideas, you create a mindset to support them.

She's a very grown-ass woman so she's had decades to think about these issues. Her radical beliefs

Doesn't she realize that Odin will send the Valkyries to punish her for her heresy? nt

The valkyries deal with fallen Norse warriors. Neither Odin nor the valkyries would waste a minute

She declined to seek re-election, being under a cloud of ethical problems. Let's forget her.
