Neat Blue Dog, how is 8-10,000 B.C. even *remotely* close to the time of the biblical flood? If you go by the Bible's laughable chronology the flood happened around 2400 B.C.
Have you even read the book you profess to believe in?

I love how they reference the "wild beast(TM)" without mentioning what the wild beast is according to their whack-a-doo interpretation.
Can you imagine the headlines if they unambiguously stated in print that the UN is going to turn on organized religion? Instead, they have to let the reader go digging in the archives to find out what the wild beast is.
They're clearly embarassed by this teaching.

She's the same age as my little sister and I cannot imagine what I would do if it had happened to her. The fact that he abused her in the kingdom hall itself also blows my mind. The creep had no shame.

I met my fiancee on eharmony and she turned out to be an ex-jw to boot! I know we're not a typical couple but we must have been matched perfectly because we've had all of ONE argument in the last six years. -

JWs: the original anti-vaxxers
by marmot inhttp://www.quotes-watchtower.co.uk/vaccination.html.
anyone not living under a rock has certainly heard of this ridiculous trend to not vaccinate children for various pseudoscientific bull**** reasons but not everyone knows that jehovah's witnesses used to be at the forefront of the movement.
some of the quotes in the link i posted above are completely batsh** crazy, i encourage newbies to have a read through..

How do flood apologists explain these?
by marmot inspear points dating to thousands of years before the flood (or even adam's alleged creation, for that matter) found preserved in situ among mammoth bones in naco, arizona.. or the 14,000 year-old footprint of a child at a mammoth hunting camp unearthed in a bog in monte verde, chile:.
the kicker is that this isn't even the oldest evidence for human settlement of the americas.
since the wt loves to trot out frozen mammoth carcasses as "proof" that mammoths died in the flood, who were these mammoth eaters in north america?

I used to think that way too, sort of like if god was a baker he didn't magically make a fully formed loaf of bread out of thin air but used time, heat and ingredients.
Of course, once you go down this path you have to completely dismiss the bible as being the word of god because man didn't magically appear on earth fully formed just 6,000 years ago.
So you either join another equally silly religion or you become an unaffiliated deist or (like me) you join the dreaded atheist camp.

The problem you radiocarbon deniers run into is that multiple dating methods are used to determine the age of these sites, such as uranium dating and stratigraphy and they all point to the same age. -

Perry, even if you completely ignore the carbon dating angle of the issue, I want to know how you reconcile "pre-flood" animal remains (in this case mammoth bones) in direct contact with man-made spear points in NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. This means that there was a human population in the Americas at the time of the supposed flood. Did your loving god extinguish these people without warning?
