And while there may not be proof of a flood, there was indeed proof of a catastrophic event that took place roughly 5300 years ago give or take 100 years. They are just now starting to understand what made the earth change overnight.....thats right, the event happened so fast it was unbelievable even to the scientists themselves as the plants they dug out of the ice sheets in the glaciers of Argentina were in perfectly preserved condition.
That kind of deep freeze means that it got cold very very quickly to protect the cellular structure of the plant in such a way.
Made/Drew .....same principal I reckon, he conceived it mentally, which doesn't mean that one could not eventually come into being.
We do know that the Egyptians knew all about complex surgery procedures
It just means that they were advanced in their thinking for the time.
Thats what I mean.
SO the real question would be then, what is your definition of advanced? What makes a civilization advanced enough in living to be considered as such?
Much of science in any respect is still guesswork.....yes you heard me right...when faced with something that changes the current model of what we believe to be true.....we change the model to suit the new information with a best guess.
Now, none of us were around at all in the days of old and knights were bold and they had no toilet paper. History is often taken out of context because we do not have a solid common frame of reference other than what we speculate probably happened. Sure we can accurately guess what a artifact was used for and learn how to read ancient writings....but motive of a past long dead civilization is just a guess.
SO your guess is as good as anyone else.

You mistake local events for global and probably some hoax author's lunacy for reality.
Now with that being said....20 years ago we would have had no evidence of such an event...now we do.
Yes there is. I dont recall anyone saying the world flooded at once. This was a 40 day event. Could of been a swell due to some unknown force.

Wow look everyone, we have a 10,000 year old human in our midst.
Wonderful. We have someone that needs to be walked through the story.
1. There is no geological evidence for a global flood.
3. There is not enough water on Earth to inundate the world.
4. There are continuous overlapping settlements going back 100,000 years or more showing no catastrophe covering all of the places people lived.
It all depends on what your little imagination attaches to the word 'advanced'. Keep in mind that presently many are perplexed on the topic of ancient building methods, logistics, and percision. We are perplexed at their silly stone walls.
5. Where is there any evidence for an ancient advanced civilization?
Maybe their ancient writing was on paper. Lets see some paper survive over 10,000 years. We are not sure how people communicated. Maybe they had no need to write down history because who would forget it? They obviously werent expecting a great cataclysm.
6. Where is there ancient writing from an advanced civilization
Again, these things are our present advancements. To apply the same model 10000 years ago is stupid.
7. Where are the parts, vehicles, factories or anything else from an advanced civilization?
Again, why would you think that they had wires and plastics 10,000 years ago? The ancients were in a different age, we are in the petroleum age. Different ages son.
Where are the wires, glass, ceramics, plastics, or any other ancient artifact?
You seem to have a childish viewpoint on ancient advanced civilization. What makes you think they needed to mine metals on a large scale?
9. Where are the mines from this ancient civilization?
The reason we find nothing at all is because it never existed.
Yes there is. I dont recall anyone saying the world flooded at once. This was a 40 day event. Could of been a swell due to some unknown force.
Who says the world flooded all at once. Swells, tsunamis, who knows, there is evidence of meteor strikes over the ice sheets. Keep in mind that the bible is probably the last source to mention the flood. out of thousands.
Yet most of these ancient settlements around the world are being found underground and must be dug out. I.e they got buried some quite quickly.

Ignorance is bliss eh.
And yes, most science is guess work...just get a medical condition that doctors cannot pin down and you will see very quickly what i mean by that.
Your inability to read between the lines of "what if" is slightly depressing...are you always this rigid? truthfully sometimes this is better than cable.
The point is that granted while you may be correct in many points (that we know of in society), the ability to take another point of view and use some imagination on your part on what may be is paramount in understanding why people believe what they do.
Science models of what they thought they knew and what is actually being witnessed now and days are entirly different. Especially where space is concerned as there have been a few instances that have had them dragging feet to rewrite what they thought was true and are now finding out that it just doesnt fit anymore due to what they are now seeing live in space. Thus having to go back and rewrite Einstien
Medically speaking...their art is lacking .... they have yet to figure out why they had to remove 2 of my organs as no real good reason exists as to why they went hooey and they had to pull them out.
So I tend to reject the art and medicine notion.

And no honestly I don't really believe in the uber advanced civilization theory...not in the technological sense. We do know that the Egyptians knew all about complex surgery procedures and even the ancient Sumerians had a wisp of knowledge to them....that doesn't mean they were advanced technologically, It just means that they were advanced in their thinking for the time.
Thats what I mean.

Hmmmmm?
