The remains of a 9,000-year-old Neolithic settlement have been unearthed outside Jerusalem. If you believe that the world is only, say, 6,000 years old, what do you make of a discovery like this?

It is hard to imagine why someone would think that the planet Earth is not older than 6,000 years. This can be clearly demonstrated, in so many ways, that it is hardly a serious issue. I probably have a rock in my back yard which is hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years old.

But to answer your question, I think that the discovery is cool...

Clearly it is The Settlement From Before Time.
