Now I might understand AV's position about New Jersey.

Genesis 6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

The New Jersey Pine Barrens, also known as the Pinelands or simply the Pines, is the largest remaining example of the Atlantic coastal pine barrens ecosystem, stretching across more than seven counties of New Jersey.

Who is that in your avatar? He reminds me a lot of Patrick McGoohan.

The inimitable Christopher Hitchens.

Am I being accused of a premeditated conscious trick?

 

[HitchSlap]

Are you accusing me of a premeditated conscious trick?

Yes. There is no ark, ergo, hoax.

Am I being accused of a premeditated conscious trick?

No you have probably not thought it through long enough to realize your error.

I read an account of an American preacher
who got his herd to pay his way to Turkey
for the Search.
He reported finding ancient hand worked timbers!
The Turkish authorities confiscated the items-
of course.
And so convenient!
Proof, one might say, of their authenticity!
Plus, he didn't have to risk exposure when
he got back with ordinary old boards.

Creationists complain about what they are
pleased to call " evolution hoaxes" of which there
might be as many as two if ones is sufficiently
liberal with the meaning of hoax.
If someone wants hoaxes-
Noah's ark discovery hoaxes show up on
yahoo news on an almost weekly basis
"...scientists discover ark...".

People have been "finding" the "ark" for
well over 2000 years now.
Marco Polo noted that someone had just found it in what. 1300 ad or so.

All hoaxes excepting our friend here
whose brother in law or whatever
really really found it.

Time will tell...

 

[Astrid]

Am I being accused of a premeditated conscious trick?

Not you. Anyone who claims discovery.

 

[HitchSlap]

Time will tell...

Hey, look on the bright side, with global warming, that glacier will melt in the next ten years and you can bag your ark.

The inimitable Christopher Hitchens.

Ah ... okay.

Sorry to see his demise.

I see a quote named after him: Hitchen's Razor.

"What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence."

 

[Astrid]

Time will tell...

Haha. People claimed discovery at least as long as 2700 years ago.

I think you misrepresented Armstrong's role, btw.


In the event, there was no flood, making ye mountain boat even
less likely, which is quite an accomplishment.

 

[AV1611VET]

There is no ark, ergo, hoax.

Either that, or Noah dismantled it to build his homestead.

 

[HitchSlap]

Either that, or Noah dismantled it to build his homestead.

And so it goes...
BTW, there were millions of Native Americans living on the Bible east coast when Noey landed in NJ. Guess how many legendary stories there are of an old dude with a few family members and thousands of animals that showed up and homesteaded... I’ll help you out here. None.

I wish they'd stop with that stuff.

It makes us look bad.

 

[HitchSlap]

"What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence."

No surprise there. He loved his Johnny Walker Black and cigarettes.

He possessed a towering intellect and precise wit. He is missed.

My late cousin Hadden Lowrey studied this in depth and accompanied Neil Armstrong on a private helicopter expedition to Ararat.

The conclusion was part of the Ark is embedded in a glacial wall and part has been carried down the valley by the ice flow. This accounts for white oak timbers being found lower down. I posted a video with Historian Hardwick Knight QSO explaining what He had found independently.

BTW, this "glacier wall" makes no sense.
The glacier move as a unit, not part going downhill,
part staying behind as a wall.

And, there is so much internal movement in a glacier that
Planks and timbers would be ground into toothpicks.

"Conclusion" above described is impossible on several
counts.
And of course there are no photos of ark in glacier coz nobody
ever saw such a thing. The " conclusion " is made up,
and consciously or otherwise you are trying to
foist a hoax here, but, of course, with notably
little success.
We will let you off with a bit of a tut- tut
and suggestion to try to do better.

Evidently his "towering intellect" took a hike twice a day.

He is missed.

And I'm sorry for his demise.
