rangerken Posts: 13,698	First of all let me add my own welcome to Sam. Great thread...thanks! Rangerken, Beliefnet Community Moderator And now, in my non-host personna...... I think 2bme has a point. Whereas I'd probably not agree with him as to why there are similarities among the ancients regarding various structures and understandings of phenomena, the evidence certainly shows there to be similarities. Speculating as to why can legitimately run the gamut from the spiritual to the non-spiritual... like cultural interaction due to travel... Kion Titki anyone????? anyway, it's good for discussion1 Ken Conservative, Libertarian, Life member of the NRA and VFW

Paris Herouni is a scientist But not in the relevant discipline. Expertise in one area of science doesn't carry over to another. One must always take what experts say regarding anything a little deeper with a grain of salt. There is nothing particularly "deep" about Carahunge. Experts are always debating the age of the Sphinx for example. A person has to learn to use their own head. No, a person has to either become an expert or wait until the experts sort it out. In this case, the experts have sorted it out. They agree that Carahunge dates from the Middle Bronze Age.

Because to do divination correctly, one must know where (what hour) the sun is. You have to use a sun dial in consulting. Knowing East and West, also the hours when consulting, is paramount in getting the right answer to a question. Divination came first, then religion came after. Religion has lost it's basic roots.

I just learned, very early this morning, about Gobekli Tepe and wonder if anyone else has insights to this remarkable find? www.smithsonianmag.com/history-archaeolo... iama: Welcome, sam! Here is an article from the Creation Ministries International web site: How does Göbekli Tepe fit with biblical history? . The wonder of Christmas is that the God Who dwelt among us, now, can dwell within us. - Roy Lessin . "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do." . Justice is receiving what you deserve. Mercy is NOT receiving what you deserve. Grace is receiving what you DO NOT deserve. .

Namchuck Posts: 9,413	One can largely dismiss 'Biblical History' in regard to Gobekli Tepe. A huge amount of history transpired both before and after the Bible was composed which it didn't have the foggiest notion about. On the other hand, Gobekli Tepe provides a significant insight into how normative human brain function can be so easily hijacked.
