[I would be ok with a discussion/debate on whether or not Adam and Eve wore shoes ... just leave out the 40,000 year FANTASY..]
Never argue with crazy people. 40,000 years ago isn’t all that far back. I was involved with Yucca Mountain where they have to reconstruct 100,000 years of weather history. They do that in part by going back through the layers of rat middens. They do it by reconstructing eruption sequences. Heck, they even have evidence in the Amargosa Valley cave pupfishes that were stranded from when Death Valley was a vast lake (a long time before 6000 years). And we have a couple mummified bodies in the state that are 9,000 years old.
So, every day and in every way 6,000 years is a position no one believes in.
Like Spirit Cave Man who is 9,400 years old. The oldest mummy ever found in the Americas.
Oh really, so I guess I am the only one on the planet that has ever mentioned it.... keep your blinders on my FRiend --- I will pray for you..
