The universe is 6,000 years old.

Before it was observed by sentient life, the entire universe existed in an indeterminate state of quantum superposition.

IOW: 6,000 years ago the universe was born as a 13,700,000,000 year old universe.

Checkmate, atheists.
That's about right.

The Antiikythera Mechanism

Post by Alex »

The Antikythera mechanism (/ˌæntɪˈkɪθɪərə/ AN-tih-KIH-ther-ə) is an Ancient Greek hand-powered orrery (model of the Solar System), described as the oldest known example of an analogue computer used to predict astronomical positions and eclipses decades in advance. It could also be used to track the four-year cycle of athletic games similar to an Olympiad, the cycle of the ancient Olympic Games.

I'm not that familiar with Fingerprint of the Gods but I assume there are a lot of similarities, although I think the places he visits in the series are newer examples. There is quite a bit on the younger dryas as well. Most of this was new material to me so I found it quite fascinating.

Human skin is only good for lamp shades and book covers. It's too thin for decent clothing. Need thicker auroch leather for such a use.
