[QUOTE="James Snover, post: 13391011, member: 67454"] Are you saying these had to be divine revelations because no one could have known them at those times in history? Not necessarily. First, there are disputes over the timelines of the books of the Bible. Second, many things have been discovered, forgotten and then re-discovered over the ages. Eratosthenes is usually credited for have discovered the Earth is a sphere in about 240BC Alexandria. But it may have been discovered many times before. Sailors knew the Earth was not flat long before Columbus came along. As for the idea that the Earth exists in space? Someone probably looked at the moon and the sun and said, "I wonder if Earth is the same way?" That could have happened at any time in human history. [/QUOTE]
