I was going to post this when it first came out in the New Yorker. But it was so long it seemed to deter me. Fascinating read as are many findings like Snow Ball Earth.

Dinosaurs aren't even real, jesus hid the bones in the ground as a test and you guys all just failed.

That Jesus was one crafty SOB.

Anyone think he'll see his shadow this year?

6 more weeks of spring!?

Does anyone here know anything about the meteor crater discovered in Greenland?

I first read about it at this blog post:

https://legalinsurrection.com/2018/...overies-and-their-impact-on-biblical-history/

Scientists now suspect that the Earth has been slammed by more extraterrestrial objects than previously suspected. For example, a giant meteor crater five times the size of Paris has been found half a mile under the ice in Greenland. The crater is thought to have formed about 12,000 years ago. ...

The link at that post to the associated newspaper article:

In the first comment at the blog post is a non-professional but interesting video speculating about implications:

A video about the 12,000 year old comet and its effect on civilization is here:

http://classicalvalues.com/2018/12/connecting-the-dots/

The Clovis civilization is one that got wiped out.

If the impact was about 12,000 years ago (not significantly earlier, as it still could be), this would be at about the end of the last ice age. This would have been when the Des Moines lobe of the Wisconsin glacier, which covered much of central and northwest Iowa, stopped in present day Des Moines. Much of the melting ice would have drained into the Missouri River, such that, as flooded as it is now, was probably not that unusual. The winds from the west then would also have picked up soil from the river bottom at that time, depositing it to form the present day Loess Hills.

There are a lot more potential implications associated with that meteor strike. I’m just giving more context.

I would be interested if anyone knows more about this. I didn’t do any additional looking into this on my own.

The first is called the Hiawatha impact crater.
If the discovery holds, the Hiawatha Crater could therefore be a tantalizing new piece of evidence for a very controversial idea. Called the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis, the notion is that some kind of large impact occurred in northern North America about 10,900 to 12,900 years ago, during the Younger Dryas Ice Age. This impact, the idea goes, caused massive wildfires across much of the continent that in turn led to the extinction of many of the large Ice Age mammals, like mammoths and mastodons, as well as the human Clovis culture.

A second crater is now also found. Age unknown.

Finally, some food for thought: 14 asteroids have passed by earth at a distance CLOSER THAN THE MOON so far in 2019!

This is all BS. Take all your science, carbon samples, theories yada.....yada.....ya. Everyone knows the day they died was the day one took a dump in Chuck Norris yard.
