Dr. Rockrazer, an archaeologist from the twentieth century was excited. And, for him, that was completely out of character. Because most of his contemporaries and fellow workers in the dirt found him to be quite dry, if you’ll pardon the accidental pun. But here he was with a face full of obvious exuberance as he held a tiny thimble above his head to get a better view in the light. And the thimble was just one of several man made objects his team had uncovered.But how was it possible those man made objects could be where they were?
And the list of those objects sounds like they came from someone’s house. Or garage. An iron pot and some type of vase with silver inlay. And an 8 karat gold chain, a ceramic doll, and a curious coin of some sort. There were also tools, nails, a screw, and an iron instrument.
But the strangest part isn’t the objects themselves. It’s where they were found. Dr. Rockrazer (or Doc Rock as his friends like to call him) and his team uncovered all these things from down deep in buried rocks. In fact, they were encased in coal.
So, maybe you can understand Doc Rock’s excitement when you find out the supposed timeline of the rock layers. According to evolutionary dating methods, all those man made objects would have to be millions of years older than mankind. And that, my dear Watson, is most peculiar. Or as Spock would say, “Most illogical.”
Of course, some might ask, “Well, Dr. Rockrazer, how do you know those objects were made by humans?” But, the astute and silver-tongued paleontologist and linguist would quickly reply…
“Are you kidding me over here?!”
If you can’t look at something and almost immediately tell whether it was man-made or not, you have no business positing theories or devising rock dating methods. And you probably shouldn’t have influence over another human being until you develop more functioning brain cells.
So, I hope my somewhat fictional story
Helps you see how the earth shows God’s glory
To anyone who’ll see the truth reasonably
Even when it’s revealed in a quarry.
