The ability of religious shitwits to cherry pick applies even to archaeology. Two examples:
A few years ago Israeli archaeologist, Amihai Mazar, found the remains of ancient apiaries (bee hives) at
Tel Rehov in the north of Israel. Xtian assholes instantly started in with the "Honey?" "Milk and Honey?" "The bible is PROVED!!!!" line of shit....ignoring the rest of Mazar's find which included altar's decorated with naked fertility goddesses. No way do xtians want to hear that shit so they just blocked it out.
Secondly, the Tel Dan stele: The earliest apparent reference to a Davidic dynasty, fundies love to jump up and down and shriek that "David has been PROVED!!!!" which, of course, he has not but then they fail to understand that the inscription on the stele contradicts their precious bible story.
As always when xtians are involved a little knowledge is a dangerous thing and they strive to acquire as little as possible.
