Honestly, I don't see Embedded Age in the quoted script. Where do you see it?Peter made it up, did he?
2 Peter 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
Notice he says they (end-times scoffers) are willingly ignorant?
1. Faulty dating methods.Still sulking over the pharaohs I see.
It must be disconcerting that;
(1) These pesky pharaohs were still building pyramids when they should have been wiped out by the great flood.
(2) By your own admission Thutmose I had the audacity of dying in 1482 BC when he should have died in 1491 BC as a victim of drowning according to Exodus.
(3) How dare Shishak a pharaoh be the first historically attested person in the Old Testament instead of Abraham, Moses, Noah etc.
(4) What about that ratfink the pharaoh Akhenaton being the first recorded individual to dabble in monotheism instead of Abraham.
It means that Thutmose II took over, NINE YEARS AFTER his predecessor was drowned in the Red Sea, trying to catch the Israelites, who were fleeing across on foot.
"By the word of God the heavens were of old."Honestly, I don't see Embedded Age in the quoted script. Where do you see it?
Isn’t it a remarkable coincidence the various dating techniques used by archaeologists from thermo and optical luminescence dating of pottery to radiocarbon dating of bones, charcoal and papyrus give faulty dates of similar magnitude?1. Faulty dating methods.
You are your own worst enemy.2. I made no such admission. Post 502 says you're wrong. Let me quote from it:
And here you display a complete breakdown in critical thinking.3. Shishak, if he was Egyptian, was born LONG AFTER his progenitor (Mizraim, Noah's great grandson) was born.
The same argument applies.4. The first recorded individual to "dabble" in monotheism was Adam. The second: Eve. Want the whole list?
No, it sure isn't.Isn’t it a remarkable coincidence the various dating techniques used by archaeologists from thermo and optical luminescence dating of pottery to radiocarbon dating of bones, charcoal and papyrus give faulty dates of similar magnitude?
No.Even if we didn’t have the luxury of various dating techniques as a confirmation exercise, care to explain how archaeology has shown building activity continued uninterrupted in Egypt when its civilization would have been completely destroyed along with its inhabitants?
These phantom pharaohs, did they happen to mention the Flood?Then there are the Egyptian king lists which show a continuous line of succession of pharaohs.
The Egyptian civilization somehow miraculously recovered without apparently having to rediscover the art of writing, engineering, mathematics and medicine to name a few.
You must have me mixed up with someone else.You then went to create a new thread My Pharaoh Challenge where you stated categorically Thutmose I reigned from 1493-1482 BC.
Like reading tea leaves. Or astrology.
I'm glad you're impressed.AV prefers term sensus plenior to reading tea leaves. Everything sounds cooler and more authorative if it is in Latin. QED.
It feels weird to use Latin for gravitas when your native language is much, much closer to the divine language as spoken in Eden and 17th century England.I'm glad you're impressed.
I only do it interdum.It feels weird to use Latin for gravitas when your native language is much, much closer to the divine language as spoken in Eden and 17th century England.
At best, this just says that God made the heavens, and by the time of Peter, they were old. Nothing in there that limits them to 6000 years."By the word of God the heavens were of old."
You can't see that?
Genesis 1 = God spoke and the heavens came into existence.
There's your "By the word of God".
God spoke.
Then Peter says the heavens were of old.
So God spoke, and the heavens came into existence old.
Oh.At best, this just says that God made the heavens, and by the time of Peter, they were old. Nothing in there that limits them to 6000 years.

Which happened only on paperSuch as the Creation Week,
Only on paperthe terraforming of the earth after the Flood,
Only on paperthe widow of Zarephath,
Only on paperturning the water into wine,
Only on paperthe feeding of the 5000 and the 4000
If they use faulty dating methods, and AV1611VET knows this - without any training on the subject - this raises the question, are all Egyptologists then horribly incompetent or fraudulent?(1. Faulty dating methods.1) These pesky pharaohs were still building pyramids when they should have been wiped out by the great flood.
Luke 3:23 says that Jesus was about 30 at the beginning of his ministry; John 8:57 implies that he was older. What is your source for the three Passover feasts?Jesus began His ministry at the age of 30.
From there, factor in three Passover feasts.
More than annoying, it's a sign of weakness and/or uncertainty. It validates the opinion that christianity has nothing to offer and needs to be shielded from even the most timid inquiry.You have a wonderful habit of ignoring and avoiding questions put to you. And by wonderful I mean annoying.
You sweet-talker, you!Your ability to read people is truly equal to your gift of ferreting out the scientific truths present in the Bible.
