I just heard Stan Deyo on Coast to Coast AM (hey, what else am I going to listen to on the radio in the middle of the night?) the other night and he claims to have figured out exactly where the Garden of Eden is.
I haven't bothered to check his claims, but he has a website (www.standeyo.com), maybe someone could go check it out.

The guy talking about Eden seemed to be making some sense. I don't know how much of what he was saying could actually be verified or not, but he didn't sound like a total nutcase. But then the host let some caller from the future weigh in with his message from the future, and the nutty caller completely ruined it for me. Was the interview over and the host was moving on to something else, or was that call supposed to be relevant to what the Eden guy was saying?

Einstein's theories show that time travel into the past is impossible. So yeah, I'd call anyone claiming to have traveled back in time to be at best, lying, and at worst, nuts.
I was just pointing out your garden thing was just a tale, not reality.
For instance, in that particular tale, your deity made the Earth and everything here and then made a man.
But for some reason, this deity couldn't make a woman like it made the man, needing to have a template of a rib? I think you know men don't have one less rib than women, right?
So there was no need for a deity to actually need a rib, but that is what the writers of the story put in there for some reason or other.
Doesn't that kind of thing even make a crack in your absolute faith of this ancient creation tale supposedly words from a deity, of which there are thousands of others with their own tale AND the 6 day creation tale was taken from earlier Egyptian 6 day creation tales thousands of years older than the Jewish version.
Doesn't that make you wonder about that, just a little?
Originally posted by sonhouseNo, come on, Einstein's equations themselves DO preclude time travel into the past. You should know this. Theories that supposedly allow it are just that, theories.

Also, on the Adam's rib thing: Do you really think that the average Hebrew of Moses' time could understand DNA, or its role in supplying a "blueprint" of man? Now say to him that God took a rib from Adam and made a woman, and *that* they can understand. You only have to use some common sense. (Haha, ready for the meltdown to follow...)
