Quick Poll - Do you believe in God?

[Little Rik]

It seems that you are running a bit too fast with your fantasy.
Where you got the idea that what was used 2000 km. away was also used in Varanasi.

It wasn't used in Varanasi - because there was no Varanasi around at that time. Varanasi co-existing with Mohenjo Daro is your fantasy, not mine.

You have no evidence that Varanasi didn't exist in those times.
Over a billion of Hindus, Buddhist and yoga followers think the opposite.
Most of these people live around this culture which has been handed down from father to sun from the beginning of immemorial time.
One day few researcher pop up and say that Varanasi is not older than 4000 years.
Where did they searched?
Did they searched where the old city was located or some other place?
What instruments did they used?
What qualification have these researchers?
Did they searched under the present city or just above where the present construction stand?
As you can see there are a lot of ??? to answer before you can come up with certainties.

And if there were any people living near Varanasi then, you'd find all sorts of other artifacts, as you to with contemporary settlements - there is none to be found.

Where is your study that artifacts dating to that period haven't been found?
And if 7000 years ago people make artifacts how would you expect that they last until these days?

It probably did use straws - but that would just prove you more wrong. You keep repeating that "mud and straw" buildings couldn't last 4000 years and yet, here are buildings of Mohenjo Daro with mud and straw bricks that have lasted longer.

Again you are running too fast with your fantasy.
How do you know that in the ruin of Mohenjo Daro there are still mud&straws brick?
What about if the ruins are just what is left of only the fired and mortared bricks because the mud bricks have long gone?

Evidence of what, exactly? All this says is there were people around 7000 years ago who lived in caves and drew pictures of crocodiles. It says nothing about those people practicing yoga or worshiping Shiva or speaking Sanskrit.

See if you can dismiss this finding.
