The original idea is that human history from the moment Adam became mortal to our present represents a period of 6,000 years, it is not an exact digit obviously since our measure of time is a little off :D or a lot haha, but that's the idea, not that Earth is 6,000 years old :/

  • And yet we found a dildo dating back 28,000 years. So unless primates made dildos back then, I'm inclined to believe it was made by an ancestor of humanity. :3

    I just looked at the image :/ I don't find anything else besides an image without any scientific relevance. Edit: Plus google doesn't have all the answers :D

  • Google is trustable. All you need to do is make sure you find multiple sources though. If you're getting the same results across the board from trusted sites then its more likely to be legitimate. :/

  • Are you telling me to trust the majority? Because the majority might be wrong too I think. Of course if that's not what you are saying please let me know so that I don't come to wrong conclusions.

  • If multiple people reach the same conclusion then its its more [b]likely[/b] to be right. So yeah, trust the majority.

  • More likely!? Not really, that sounds more like popular opinion and that changes constantly, we are humans after all. Now if we talk about studies then either it is proven or not. Don't just follow the majority just because it is mainstream or popular, look for your own answers whenever you can.

  • Whatever. When there's ten reports of the same thing, I'm going to agree with the eight reports all supporting each other. It's only logical. That's how research and experiments are done. You test things multiple times and average the results. So why wouldn't you do the same here. Why would you choose the minority which is more likely to be incorrect?

    My decisions are not based on majorities or minorities, they are based on what people calls "absolutes", I call it Truth. 2+2=4 for example, regardless of majorities or minorities.

  • There's only one way that truths and absolutes are determined and that's through rigorous tests and experiments. (Or faith lol)

  • Yeah, test and experiments work decent, faith helps too but not alone, faith and works (experimenting and testing) enables knowledge, or also refer to as "personal revelation" as I've experienced. So I share the same understanding on that, kind of :D

  • Well its not like you and I have the resources to test for decomposition in the item above in the op. So if majority of the tests agree its X years old I'm more inclined to believe that than the minority claiming its something else. It's not that I side with popular belief, its that I favour more tests and experiments over less tests and experiments. That of course is assuming that each person who gave a report had their own individual test to contribute with.

    Also the majority of people says that the majority of people are dumb... Does that make it true?, I don't think so.

  • I believe the whole point was that a picture does not proof anything :D, and it is open to a lot of interpretations too.

  • I'm not playing ignorant, in any case it shows more ignorance to search using those exact words expecting a legit scientific article to appear and use those words too.

  • Keep claiming ignorance bud. That's what I searched as that's all I had to go off of when I found this picture and I came across numerous articles. But suit yourself.

  • Why were you searching that to begin with? And I'm not claiming ignorance, you are the one claiming that I'm "claiming ignorance".
