Re: Why has a Ron Wyatt fraud got 400+ posts.
Take a good look at the young minds full of mush in your classroom who swallow yours year after year. People are reall gullible, aren't they, Eta?
You are referring to the young children being told the Torah, New Testament, and Koran, Book of Mormon are literally true because God wrote them?
Simple. Their whole educational ideological structure would be totally devastated.
This is why our government(s) are withholding the facts about UFO's and the aliens among us?
buzsaw,
Have you read The Bible Unearthed? and Who wrote the Bible?
The Bible was written by priests and prophets putting forth their stories. They may have genuinely believed the myths handed down to them, and they may have genuinely felt their feelings came from God, but that doesn't mean there was a Moses, or an exodus. The history and archeology of those times and places does not support the Torah's stories. Face the facts. You are simply arguing and grabbing at straws to preserve your emotional investment in a religion that was imposed on the peoples of Europe and elsewhere by the Holy Roman church. There is a tremendous cultural momentum from over a thousand years of propaganda, but now rationality has emerged and is studying the facts.
This is threatening to many, but then why come here and try to convince others that your fairy tales are really real, particularly if you aren't interested and willing to read the research and instead use silly claims like "Simple. Their whole educational ideological structure would be totally devastated." What devastation? Schools burnt and closed down? The country plunged into illiteracy? No more doctors educated? Whatever are you talking about, what do you imagine will happen and why?
peace,
lfen

Re: Why has a Ron Wyatt fraud got 400+ posts.
That's based on a proper quote - anyone remember it?
Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public.
H. L. Mencken
I'm so glad you asked. It's been years since I've had the delight of Mencken's wit. More of his quotes can be found here:
H. L. Mencken Quotes - The Quotations Page
a smattering to whet your appetites:
The most common of all follies is to believe passionately in the palpably not true. It is the chief occupation of mankind.
H. L. Mencken
It is now quite lawful for a Catholic woman to avoid pregnancy by a resort to mathematics, though she is still forbidden to resort to physics or chemistry.
H. L. Mencken
We are here and it is now. Further than that all human knowledge is moonshine.
H. L. Mencken
I herewith return you to your regular scheduled program.
peace,

Re: Topic!
quote:
I know it bears on the credibility of Wyatt but I think there is probably need to agree to disagree on that.
AdminNosy,
Did you look at that document:
Ron Wyatt talk April 6, 1996
It purports to be a transcription of a talk Wyatt gave in Oregon. The talk includes the chariot wheels and exodus stuff and other wild claims. If that transcription is not a hoax and Wyatt said those things it has strong bearing on his credibility.
And this raises a question: Is there a transcription of the video available on the net?
