    No, it was shorter than today, according to the Science Channel.

    The days really have to be short to make a million years out of 6,000 to 10,000 years! That fish is not the only one that’s blind. So are the evolutionists!

    47 is awfully close to 48 hours. My guess would be that they were disturbed by the researchers invading their cave and didn’t sleep for a day. Only going to sleep when they were too tired to stay awake anymore. Kinda like pulling an all nighter in college.

    Wasn’t Hitler 1/4 Jewish?

    Re movable type: The Chinese had many technologies before the Europeans. The difference was that it was used mainly for the wealthy of the day instead of for the masses.

    It’s been said that Hitler had Jewish blood in him. One thing’s for sure, he hardly looked like the beautiful blond haired, blue eyed Aryan he claimed to worship!

    I’m relieved Hitler was actually civil to one Jewish person. The plight of the Jewish people always dramatised me.

    Once a year I shift to a 25 hour day – and six months later I shift to a 23 hour day. But the shift only lasts one day until I’m back on 24 hour days. Does this make any sense?

    More likely they’d try a “Boys from Brazil” stunt…

    The evidence is overwhelming if you read the right literature, and cast aside your biases and prejudices and be objective.
