Egypt discovers what may be oldest human footprint

[AndrewX]

How can this be?  The world is only 6-thousand years old!

:lol::big grin: 

A lot of Christians now know that the word days was translated wrong in Genesis. It’s supposed to say God created the world in 6 periods and not 6 days.

Does this mean That God was in fact a woman?  I mean, 6 menstrual cycles is still pretty fast to organise a whole new world.:big grin:  I wonder if she was upset at all during any of them?lolol 

William, 

My 'truth censors' were in harmony when I read that article about 200million year old footprints.  I believe this is true. 

Now watch the dust cloud build up around Egypt from all the shovelling as they frantically try to unearth similarly aged remnents.  It may pay to wear a mouth gaurd and goggles around the Sphinx toilet cubicles me thinks.:big grin:

William, I heard about the Human footprints that lie alongside thousands of dinosaur prints back in the 80s. What funny about is DT was talking with a 8th grade science teacher about that and the teacher said it can’t be true because she’s never heard about it. I thought that was a funny response but I know a lot of people are like that. If they didn’t hear about it before, then it can’t be true.

Andrew, that’s pretty funny. At the moment I don’t remember what they define periods as. I don’t remember if they said a period was a million or a billion years.
They also point out the bible says the earth was already here when God decided to change it. So that ads more age to the earth according to the bible. The Christians have it figured that the bible agrees with science on the earths age.

Sounds more like a convenient 'about face' now that everyone woke up to their crap. Strange how they never realized it before aye?

OK, sticking with the Ancient digs......   Lots of info here if you know how to read between some lines...in the sand......

Epigenetics: Here's a strange twist in the nature-vs.-nurture debate: What you eat and how you live may actually affect the way your genes work. Chemical switches inside your cells selectively turn genes on and off, in response to substances coming into your system. That process is called epigenetics, and it appears to explain how the harm done by toxins can be passed on from mother to child, even though the mother's DNA is unaffected. Epigenetics may also explain why identical twins don't stay identical.


Just this year, she and other experts reported the first chemical results for T. rex collagen. The protein analysis appeared to confirm that birds are the closest living relatives of T. rex and his ilk. And that's only a start for the field of paleobiochemistry. If you take the T. rex findings, then add Rogers' titanosaurs from Madagascar ... and Schweitzer's hadrosaur ... and more samples that fossil-hunter Jack Horner is finding in Mongolia as well as Montana ... well, you can start figuring out the relationships among groups of dinosaurs, as well as the dinosaurs' links to other extinct and modern-day species, on the molecular level.

A couple of years ago, paleontologists were stunned to find that the soft tissue of a 70 million-year-old dinosaur was preserved within a fossil from a Tyrannosaurus rex. Such a thing had never been seen before. The discovery opened the door to all sorts of speculation about reconstructing dinosaur DNA, just as it was in the fictional "Jurassic Park" tales.
