Fisherman, you are a smart person, probably smarter than any member of
the Governing Body. You shouldn't just be parroting the lines from
Brooklyn.
Shep, the WT only interprets and comments on the Bible; and the age of Noah's flood is not a wt interpretation of the Bible. As everyone knows, there are Biblical dates that also correspond with historical dates (such as the fall of Babylon for instance) and these are called pivotal dates, and are used by Bible students to go back and forward in time to establish Biblical dates, the date of Noah's flood for example.There is no mismatch between wt chronology and everybody else on the date of the flood; seems that everyone agrees that the Biblical date of the flood is the date being discussed between myself and other posters on this thread.
To Christians, the historicity of Noah's flood was confirmed by Jesus himself, and thus, to Christians, it is written in stone, sort of speak, and only verifiable proof can challenge that. Jews also believe that God himself dictated the LAW to Moses and they won't be convinced by speculative science either. I was invited by a Rabbi to eat a bacon and cheese burger with him at Mcdonald's on Yom KIppur if I could produce solid proof that contradicts the BIble. I will PM you his number.
Your post that I am responding to suggesting a date that contradicts the Biblical flood is not proof but only speculation.
