guess.jpgAnyone have any idea what this mystery object is? That's a coin to the bottom left of the object, which gives a sense of the scale. Leave your suggestions below.

Here's a clue.

Hey, that's one of those elephant/mammoth teeth that they dug up out of the lignite, innit? Imagine all those years ago, at the last ice age - mammoth, hippo, rhino etc, all gracing the wilds of Ulster, rather than cooped up in Belview. And falling into bogs.

Roar!

Except PB and the punters probably think it was washed there by the Flood, or that Noah did some pachyderm dentistry on the ark and chucked it over the side...

Please stop claiming that Ireland is 600 million years old. There is no scientific evidence whatsoever to support this view. This Blueprint programme is an attack on biblical truth. The world was created by a divine designer and nothing this toothless mammoth can "reveal" will overturn that FACT.

Here is the simple truth for you:

Evolution = THEORY

Creation = FACT

When you speak about evolution, William, I hope you will use the word THEORY to make it clear to your viewers that there is no factual basis to this view of the world.

The object in question is a representation of the 主播大秀 mind set 鈥渄ried up material鈥 鈥渓ifeless matter鈥 dead with no spirit or should I say the mind set of all those who were Born Before Creation, their party line never changes from Alan Titchmarsh to David Attenborough to William Crawley they all have evolved through the 主播大秀鈥檚 staff induction or some would say they have been brain washed by Auntie, they all have to toe the party line for Auntie knows best when it comes to pay day. When was the last time that the 主播大秀 did a programme from the Creation perspective? Creationist pay for their TV licensees just like Evolutionists but they are ignored when it comes to putting out a balanced impartial viewpoint, Creation v Evolution.

P.S. William

I would like to see the 主播大秀 producing a DVD of the 30-minute film about C.H. Spurgeon that was first broadcast on 主播大秀-TV in May 1975, if that is not possible how about a re-run. Now that might balance the scales a bit.

The answer is obvious. This is the preserved fossilized remains of a cream pie with chocolate frosting served to Henry VIII when he came into the castle one night early by surprise. He was famished and wanted something to eat immediately. They had this pie ready for his dessert so he ate the other three quaters of it straight away. He then lost intrest in it and left this quarter over when his entree arrived, an entire roasted wild boar. After boring into it and consuming the entier boar, he was too bored to finish this last piece. It is now on display at the British Museum. I saw one just like it in my local bakery just a week ago...about half the diameter of course.

Come on 主播大秀. Why doesn't dear old Auntie show that documentary about CH Spurgeon again. That'd really settle things. Instead we hear all this THEORY about a round Earth rather than the FACT that the planet is as flat as 6000 year old pancake.

Come on 主播大秀! Let's have that 30 min documentary on CH Spurgeon - that'll sort everything out.

Speaking of documentaries, I hear that deep in the vaults of Auntie exists that critically acclaimed series exploring why talk of a round Earth remains a THEORY and why the FACTS of a flat Earth are as real as a 6,000 year old pancake.

Hello Simon,

Pancake?! Those are usually round-shaped. It think you should change that to tile-shaped or something like that. After all, the bible does mention the four corners of the earth in the book of revelation. Flat ok, but round-shaped like a pancake?! You must be joking.

Thanks Peter. If there wasn't people like you around I'd remain in ignorance. It's good to have intelligent people around who know about the Bible. A 6,000 year old tile it is!

Peter i enjoy your jokes a bout the flat earth from time to time but as a scientific fact you have to admit that for people living four hundred years ago they this was an increadable revelation its not like all these people were just cave men.

I bet that most of the quantum field theory you do is in a flat backround so maybe we should look back on history a bit more humbly.

The fact that the earth is round would've been a great shock to people 400 years ago, I quite agree. The problem is there are people today for whom such a revelation is still a shock. That's the frightening thing

I'm sick to death about all these "scientific" theories being presented as facts (such as evolution theory). For example: there is no such thing as the theory of gravity. Gravity does not exist! It's really GOD holding us all down.

Hello am, Simon, INHIMIAM,

am, I didn't state all people who believed in a flat earth centuries ago were cave men. Although if asked on the subject I would say that some ignorance slipped into mankinds thinking somewhere along the way. And that accepting that old nonsense book with its talk of a flat, immoveable earth at the centre of the universe was a bad, bad mistake.

The ancient Greeks had worked out a great deal about what goes on in our solar system. Some bits of their knowledge:

The astronomer Inopedes (Chios, 400 B.C. ) had worked out that the angle of the Earth is tipped with respect to the plane of its orbit by 24 degrees. His value is very close to the actual 23.5 degrees.

Another astronomer, Heracleides (Heraclea, 390-320 B.C.), had worked out that Venus and Mars orbit the sun. He also suggested the the Earth rotates around its axis once every 24 hours.

And most interestingly for this discussion, the astronomer and mathematician Eratosthenes of Cyrene (276-200 B.C.) calculated the circumference of the earth to be 46000 km, close to actual value of 40000.

So people far past certainly weren't stupid. They had discovered things 2-2.5 millenia ago that I find positively astonishing. See more on

But much of that knowledge was lost in the turmoil that engulfed Europe after the loss of Greco-Roman civilisation. And then more was actively done away with because of it's non-christian origins. While people from the past weren't stupid, I would certainly say that it was a very bad and costly mistake when the nonsense of the bible was accepted over the wisdom aquired by the ancients.

And INHIMIAM, I have also learned that gravity is just another atheist lie that scientists like to put forward to deny Him. The reason we stick to the earth is of course Intelligent Falling, as reported by Americas finest news source:

I quote one of the evangelical scholars in the article, Gabriel Burdett of the Evangelical Center For Faith-Based Reasoning:

"Gravity鈥攚hich is taught to our children as a law鈥攊s founded on great gaps in understanding. The laws predict the mutual force between all bodies of mass, but they cannot explain that force. Isaac Newton himself said, 'I suspect that my theories may all depend upon a force for which philosophers have searched all of nature in vain.' Of course, he is alluding to a higher power."

So you were quite right to point out the deficiencies in that so-called law of gravy. Thank you for doing that.

greets,
Peter

hi peter, thanks for your response.

my point is just that this "discovery" is increadiblly controversal for many other reasons than religeous ones. i just dont fell your being fair to the people of these times.

there will be loads of things people will look back on in 400 years and laugh at us for.

im sorry if your annoyed about the way the church acted, it annoys me too, but i dont belive that the bible tells people to stop thinking or searching for the truth, in fact it encourages me to go looking for it,

all the best
