Re: Makes No Sense Biblically
Iran makes absolutely no sense Biblically, imo. you realize that the modern mt. ararat is on the iranian border, right? you also might want to check the bible more closely:
quote: Gen 8:4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
the other place we see ararat is in jeremiah:
quote: Jer 51:27 Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillers.
ararat = kingdom. the ark lands on a mountain range that is inside the kingdom (not in noah's time, but in the author's time).

Re: Bob Cornuke and Rob Wyatt Cranksterism
Please refrain from viewing the Christian position as a fundamentalist position (in a derogatory sense) in the future, since all positions are fundamental by definition. The only non-fundamental position is that of the non-opinionated! there are extreme right positions, extreme left position, and everything in the middle. fundamentalism is an extremist position -- jar is more of a moderate. not all opinions are fundamentalist, i assure you.

Re: Bob Cornuke and Rob Wyatt Cranksterism
Spinning a web are we? of course.
Do you have an opinion on the outcome of this noah's Ark story? which one? the new one? i haven't seen anything about it. though, i'd have to say, it'd be unlikely.

Re: Off topic but gotta respond.
John 10:22-38 ...
I don't see the relevance to the Noah's Ark story. The quote is talking about the Law, and the Noah story surely was not considered to be law. the verse jesus is quoting is:
quote: Psa 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
normally, "the law" refers to ha-torah, the first five book of the christian bible (which, btw, includes the noah story). the curious point is that jesus using "law" in a way that no jewish person would: to refer not only the laws, and not only the torah, but the psalms as well. clearly, psalms are NOT laws. [edit] also, it's out of context.
quote: Psa 82:1 [[A Psalm of Asaph.] God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
god is not talking to people, he is talking to other gods, NOT MEN. the "congregation" is much like the council that appears in job, yahweh (the most high god) and the lesser gods/sons of god.
quote: Psa 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. Psa 82:7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

Re: Bob Cornuke and Rob Wyatt Cranksterism
though, i'd have to say, it'd be unlikely. The easiest thing to bet on is the skeptical angle, becasue all things are always doubtable... i have a number of good geological reasons to be HIGHLY skeptical of such a find. not the least of which is the fact that old boats are very, very rare archaeological finds, and tend not to preserve very well.

Re: GD Wyatt's Aqaba
Without him, likely nothing at all would have been researched in the fields of his work. is his field "cranksterism?" because real biblical archaeology goes on all the in israel.

Re: GD Wyatt's Aqaba
I see no good reason for them to research anything pertaining to the AOC until more evidence is produced. uh, i can think of one group that's produced exactly as much evidence as wyatt has, only with a twist. they claim to have the ark of the covenant. but you can't see it. and if you try to jump the fence, they shoot you with ak-47's.
It appears that they have nothing to research yes, it does appear that way, doesn't it? kinda looks like, i dunno, somebody just made a bunch of stuff up.
