Do you think this man's timeline matches up with recorded history?

Well, he did forget to add that in the year 1985, Austrian Rock Singer Falco composed "Rock Me Amadeus". But other than that obvious oversight, it pretty much lines up......

I am not a historian and others would know more about this (such as CX).

According to Matthew Chapter 2, Herod was king when Jesus was supposedly born. From Roman records, Herod died in 4 BCE. This would place the birth of Jesus between 7 BCE and 4 BCE. (Adding 2 years because of the following.)

Matthew 2:16
Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.

I had also read that Mark was considered the first gospel that was written (between 60-70 CE) and that Matthew, Luke, and John were all written after that time. (I believe the book was called "A History of God" but I do not have it with me at work.)

With these discrepencies, I would doubt the accuracy of the rest of this timeline.

He forgot to add in the dates where Satan planted all the fossil evidence to confuse those heretics who don't trust in the Word of God.
