Actually, they’d have all starved to death staring at the refrigerator waiting for food to “happen”.

My 80yr old dad is of the generation that actually did this. If my mother is egregiously delayed somehow he'll *eventually* make a sandwich. Eventually...

I have been retained as an attorney for The Sardinian Boat Makers Union. We find your use of the phrase “made of common reeds” to be extremely pergutaive....perjordanative.......nasty. Our reeds are not “common”. They are hand cultivated in the finest swamps in Sardinia. We will drop our suit against you if you want to settle out of court. I think twenty seven bucks and a case of beer can buy us off...I mean provide the necessary recondense....er......recommense.......moola. Sincerely yours,

Funny how science inadvertantly confirms the Bible, time and time again.

Yes, and it gets worse — the “researchers” are claiming that someone living in eastern Asia in 1500 BC is the common ancestor of everyone who met Columbus on the beach in 1492, and all those remote tribes in the Amazon who may not have been discovered to this day. Ridiculous.

We also know that this has nothing to do with Noah and his family, or any of the other survivors of the Flood.

Since the Bible doesn’t contain a word about DNA, no, in fact, this study — in which ‘Adam’ and ‘Eve’ lived over 150,000 years ago — hasn’t confirmed the Bible.

Thank you. Confirn is too strong, align would be more accurate.(this is in regards to the man DNA being younger than the woman DNA, as expected, see previous posts about it.)

Do they know their names yet?

Didn't you read the article? They both had the same first name "Mitochondrial" and different last names "Adam" and "Eve". They probably never met, but have passed their chromosomes down to everyone who lives today....
