The tools are estimated to be between 800,000 and a million years old...
As long as certain branches of science are locked into the the eons mindset, it's doubtful they'll stumble over the truth of the matters.
Still believe it is wiser to think in terms of a few thousands of years, as they are now measured, and not many hundreds of thousands and millions of years, as now estimated. And this in spite of the ever-present continuing indoctrination from practically all schools and media.

Have you ever noticed what was created during the delineated six day period? Only life forms. The water and lands were only rearranged.

I've never been one to put much faith in the carbon dating method. They have done tests on objects they know the actual age of and the results have been way off.. There are tons of articles out there that show there are very serious flaws in the system that are written by scientists themselves.

The (estimated) million-year-old chiseled tools from before "the delineated six-day period" must have been dropped from orbit by space travelers.
Waters and lands have been "rearranged" in times of colossal cataclysms since man first appeared full-hatched.

If a rock is 1 million years old. And flints are made from that rock. Are the flints 1 million years old?
This is a problem I have with a bazillion finds.

Yes, but in Genesis 1, there was nothing living when it all started. Only a water submerged planet. That was not its original state.
Some theologians think it was destroyed in Satan’s rebellion. He was in charge here, at the time.

All of them save the seventh, which apparently hasn’t ended.
God’s still resting, which might explain the current state of the world...

That's exactly what I'm talkin about...
To: Sacajaweau
Knapping a million year old flint exposes fresh surfaces to weathering and the elements (ground water, etc.) start to alter the surface.
The thicker the weathered layer, the longer the tool was exposed to the elements, and the older it is.
This gives a rough estimate of the age of the tool.

It’s called Grant Money. As long as there is “CONFLICT”, the money flows.
To: Resettozero
Agreed. If man was making tools one million years ago, he would have dominated the earth and his population would have exploded. Reverse population growth trends and their is no way you have man maintaining a very small population for a million years only to explode in the last few thousand.

The current generation thinks once you have a number you have the truth. number don’t lie.
They were never taught to check their math in elementary school. And have no common sense to compare an answer with. With slide rules, you had to understand the number.
