Since when you people accept C14 dating as valid, considering all the mental gymnastics you people have been doing to dismiss C14 dating?

Re: Gerrit Aalten
Looks like a picture from one of those gay dating sites. Are you sure you got the right one?
But in short, I, too, have been hearing them discovering the ark and rediscovering it every so often. I remember being so excited when I first heard about this back when I was still a christian.
Christians need to stop supporting these cranks. People like Ron Watt and now apparently these christian archaeologists are doing more damage than not. They're driving all the honest people away from christianity.
I think my disappointment when I found out they keep rediscovering the ark in this fashion contributed directly to my abandonment of christianity.
I tend to call religion BS now, but I still remember how comfortable and good it felt to be a christian. If the religion wants to stop driving people away, it needs to stop breeding these cranks among its ranks.
Hey, that rhymes.

There are many many differences however between a classic such as the Iliad and the Bible. The Bible was written by 40 authors over a span of thousands of years. If you really get down and study the historicity of the Bible and archeology, it's fascinating and nothing shy of miraculous the amount of evidence that verifies the history of the Bible.
Greek mythologies had literally hundreds of authors. And if you ignore all the magic and miracles, many places and events mentioned in those mythologies turned out to be true.
What does all of this prove? That works of fiction often have elements of truths to them. I just read a book called As the World Dies by Rhiannon Frater. It's about zombie apocalypse. She used real towns and cities in her novel. Her story even mentioned real famouse people. But obviously, there never was a zombie apocalypse.
