Oh yes. And just keep in mind the bible, which is an authority in this matters, says the earth is 6k years old. Don’t forget that

Interesting. I always assumed the first humans were placed here 6000 years ago by Yahweh. I think this 300 thousand year stuff is nonsense. It simply doesn’t correlate with the inerrant facts of the Bible.

Very interesting. As a guy who knows his (local) stone artifacts I see fluting in the stone tools in the pic there at your link. Not the typical, (more advanced) fluting style that I would see on a paleo artifact I might see here, but rudimentary flutes no doubt. There is too much of it (evident in many of the tools) to be coincidental.
See here:
https://phys.org/news/2017-04-archaeologist-fluting-ancient-stone-weaponry.html
The fluting on these ^ stone knives/spearheads is the channel struck into the artifact that runs from the bottom up. These are very similar to the kind of artifacts I have found/seen here where I live.
Oh, and the babble is obviously right, they just have the timeline off by a few hundred thousand years… ๐

Maka, if you ever get bored with being an architect, you could have a second career as a “philosopher of religion”. That sentence just brought tears to my eyes (at 16:29) and is worthy of a Craig or a Plantiga.

Maybe I should start a side gig as a philosopher of religion in one of these religious institutions.
I am glad I can make you tear :).

I like the idea of the entire continent of Africa being the Garden of Eden. It makes sense to me that the cradle of civilization was an area larger than one regional cluster. Thank you, my Kenyan brother for sharing this with us. Naked hugs!

If true… Let’s not jump to conclusions prematurely. Let’s give the process of science time to verify these new findings.

I’m not sure east Africa has actually been demoted yet. Given the size of the brain case, I think archaeologist John Shea is right, calling these remains Homo sapiens is probably a stretch. Still very interesting.
