When I read the headline I immediately thought it was referring to a new age in which the most highly revered intellects would be Meghan McCain and Meghan Kelley, and our futures would be dictated by blond bimbos working in pairs; perhaps in leather outfits. Just sayin’.

Way back before the leftists’ god told us “We are no longer a Christian nation”, this was called the Postdiluvian Age.

“...civilisations in Egypt, Greece, Syria, Palestine, Mesopotamia...”

Never before in the history of earth has there ever been a nation known as Palestine....

Wasn’t there a big flood just before all this global warming started?

Maybe it was just exceptionally high humidity.

“See, see! Globull warming.”

Get ready. Globul warming will now be grafted onto history as the cause of the late bronze age collapse. Sorry Sea Peeps.

The oldest phase of the Holocene - the exit from the ice age - will be known as the Greenlandian.

...

We’re actually still in an ice age. Our current period is an interglacial, which, remarkably, is cooler than the last interglacial.

I thought it would be about Meghan McCain’s love life.

I actually had this "discussion" with a family member. They insisted, "It's in the Bible." I asked, "Who ruled over the nation of Palestine and when?"

The reference to "Palestine" has always been a regional geographic location. Palestinians resided in the region. It would be like calling "The Southwest" a nation and lobbying for "Southwesterners" to have their own Country. Arguably, part of the South West could include part of Mexico. How you gonna manage that mess redrawing boarders that encroach on two countries?

Ah, then that would explain the disappearance of the Saharan Forest.

Exactly...The people called “Palestinians” are actually Jordanians, Egyptians, Syrians, Iraqis, and Lebanese who lived in the area known as Palestine...

Thing is, it’s easy to research and see that fallacy in the “stolen land” claim that the left and Euroweenies decry.
