You just seem to be looking for diversions that you think will distract people from your inability to address the questions put to you, Davey.

I know that this is a favorite tactic of yours, but DO try not to turn this thread into just another one of the many that you abandon due to your shortcomings, k?

Now...how about answering the questions put to you in this forum, Davey?

I already gave you a list of 15 genera. But you have already decided that they weren't feathered dinosaurs, no matter the evidence, so what's the point?

I've never seen the evidence. I'm from Missouri. Show me. Like I said, you could start a new thread in EvC, then post some pictures and some analysis of why you think there were ever any feathered dinos.

THE TOPIC OF THIS THREAD IS Did Pre-Flood Patriarchs Live ~1000 Years? .

TRY TO ADDRESS THE POINTS PUT TO YOU ON THIS SUBJECT AND NOT DIVERT FROM YOUR INABILITIES AND DEFICIENCIES, DAVEY

Maybe they'll give me a two-fer-one special and throw in some giant skeletons.

Yet another example of the YEC mind set: all feathered dinosaur fossils are hoaxes produced in China. I guess it's easier to believe in a massive conspiracy among paleontologists and other scientists and hand wave away the evidence, so you don't even have to look at it.

Again, you have to explain this preferential treatment of certain sources.

No preferential treatment. You make a very good point. As I said, I have not read Josephus' sources. Obviously, we need to evaluate them all and determine which are independent and which are not. My point is simply that IF there are say, 5 independent sources that say 1000 and 1 source that says 30000, then I would lean towards the sources that say 1000.

And I am out of time for this morning.

Of course you are, shugah.

Loath as I am to extend the derail, I must comment that I find the above post deeply ironic given that (a) it was dave who introduced the feathered dinosaurs / flagella / pond scum derails in the first place and (b) the post that this was in response to contains a list of feathered dinosaur genera.

No, actually, YOU are the one diverting. Try reading my on-topic posts from this morning and dealing with them honestly for once in your life.

Mentioning feathered dinos in a list so as to compare their myth/non-myth status to that of long lived patriarchs is more on-topic than debating feathered dinos.

Uh, addressing WHAT, Dave? that you need to read more? Well, yeah, I agree. Other than that, you said nothing. Your posts have zero meaningful content as responses to the questions put to you previously, other than to say you are ignorant of a great many things. But of course, I don't expect you to deal honestly with that.
