They dated the trees (preserved for 50,000 years by the low oxygen water) by carbon dating.

So Noah's so-called flood happened 50,000 years ago. Interesting.

You can believe whatever you want, it doesn't change reality. When you self lobotomize your brain you can't accept change in views, but only hold on desperately to your outmoded delusions.

I know my belief does not change the beliefs of others. Beliefs do not change the truth either. The truth is that the age of these flooded forrests are not known and the 50,000 years is just a guess to make the discovery seem more dramatic and important.

I feel sorry for your brain, unable to process real data. Why don't you just cut the thing out entirely so all you have left is your own religious agenda. No, wait, you already did that, sorry.

Like I have said before, you seem to have serious personality or mental problems and should seek professional help soon.

I'm not the one who cannot accept scientific evidence. I am not the one who always shouts 'holy holy holy'. You are seriously deluded.

I guess we have both given our share of insults and I guess we will have to agree to disagree and go on about our business. You are not willing to consider my information and I am well aware of all the information you have presented and see no credibility in it.

What you have is not information, what you have is dogma. There is no science in dogma, just blind faith. I don't do blind faith. I listen to the evidence. If you did, you might finding yourself casting off your self lobotomy.

How about the scientific evidence of the Shroud of Turin? That is not blind faith. That is pure science. Ha, ha. Got you on that one. 😏

Apparently carbon dating is not very accurate, if the wrong assumptions are being made. 😏
