What counter arguments? I said so? Until we have something a little more substantial 'we' can't even have an arguement.
Can we have some citations please?
Someone has made some assertion, now it is time to prove it.
I wasn't thinking of any counterarguments stated here. None have been made so far. Only assertions. But I have heard arguments against many of the very early dates given on those sites you linked. I'm too new to this matter however to properly argue them here but another friendly atheist will probably provide them in this thread (hopefully with some actual arguments and citations!)
