The Bible Takes It Up The Ass, Again!
February 4, 2014 at 5:24 pm

Quote:Camels are mentioned as pack animals in the biblical stories of Abraham, Joseph, and Jacob. But archaeologists have shown that camels were not domesticated in the Land of Israel until centuries after the Age of the Patriarchs (2000-1500 BCE). In addition to challenging the Bible's historicity, this anachronism is direct proof that the text was compiled well after the events it describes.
Quote:o determine exactly when domesticated camels appeared in the southern Levant, Dr. Sapir-Hen and Dr. Ben-Yosef used radiocarbon dating and other techniques to analyze the findings of these digs as well as several others done in the valley. In all the digs, they found that camel bones were unearthed almost exclusively in archaeological layers dating from the last third of the 10th century BCE or later -- centuries after the patriarchs lived and decades after the Kingdom of David, according to the Bible.
Put another way...the bible ain't worth camel shit.

I thought this was going to be a joke about Jesus riding his ass or something.
Camels huh - hate em personally - they've always got the hump.
More seriously - you know Drich is going to be like a rat up a drainpipe on the "they found that camel bones were unearthed almost exclusively in archaeological layers dating from the last third of the 10th century BCE or later"

From the title I expected some anal related debauchery and instead found anal retentive debunkery. Close enough!

LOL!
So, its come to this.... an ass using camels to refute God's word?
You will be glad to know that you are referenced more than 400 times in the bible. And your ancestors were the common domestic beasts of burden while camels were primarily used for "desert runs".
But ....it is easier for a camel to fit through a needle eye than for you to get to heaven! Go figure....Hee Haw!!

I haven't heard the camel thing before. At least it's not as bad as saying that if you show your livestock stripes objects, they'll have striped young. I don't even know why anyone would think that was possible for a second. All you have to do is look at a herd of cattle and notice they don't usually have much green color to them.

This has got to be the dumbest thing you have posted and backed on this message board hands down, bar none period.
There is a huge flaw with your theory. Your theory because you posted it.
Anyone care to guess what it is before I state the blantly obvious?

This should be good.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould

No, we're all too eager to watch you trip over your own balls with another 'just-so' story.

Who mentioned "God"? This is about the bible.
Interesting though that you've got nothing left in your arsenal but ad homs. Clearly the article struck a nerve.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
