YOU GODLESS HEATHENS WILL BURN IN H...... Oh wait. That was funny. :-)

Haha! awesome

I fear that a few U.S. senators actually do believe this. It's not funny if it's true...

That's not a fear, it is a fact; & it's funny BECAUSE it's true. (you've got to laugh or cry)

[Raev]

How about nervous laughter? Does that work?

...if you can't work up a big belly laugh, it'll have to do.

It's all I can spare for this topic. A nervous laugh. I work with a guy like that, swears up and down that the earth is only 5,000 years old and insists anyone who doesn't agree with him is an ignorant heathen. Le-sigh.

[Rev.Reverence]

I laugh in their faces.

[Oh_My_Goth]

Peoples are so silly.

PBS was just doing a special on the first "North Americans" and they have carbon dating back at least 15,000 years. They're thinking that we could have had pre-clovis people that were here before that, but the scientific community is calling that taboo.

Why is that taboo? The asteroid that destroyed the fossil record was not perfectly thorough. There is, in fact, plenty of evidence to show that there were pre-Clovis peoples.

Please expand and revise your prior comments, AstralCrux.

Well to explain the theories on pre-clovis; they think that rather than everyone coming over an ice bridge by Alaska, we may have ended up with early Europeans through boats along the coastline.

Personally, I'm not sure why we should question the concept of pre-clovis, but Scientists are being finicky for no reason. They were digging below a clovis trench and found- quite far down mind you- arrowheads/tools.

This is true.... they have found ruins in Chile that predate the ice bridge as well

My coworkers reply to carbon dating -

"It's a fake science that is not accurate. They can make someones work boot read to be a thousand years old. Heathens."

heh.

I love my coworkers.

Raev...

How do they explain away the geological strata? Seriously, if the place was only 6,000 years old, where did all the dirt come from?

[Raev]

I'd ask - but my head is starting to hurt enough today. Maybe tomorrow.

You should have heard this dudes rant about evolution.
