We're busted. The Pyramids ARE full of food

The small hydrodynamic shellfish and sea creatures sunk fast in the turbulent muddy water, and the larger animals sank more slowly.

That is why their remains in layers of sediment formed in the flood show the simpler creatures at the lower strata, and the more complex animals at the higher strata.

But of course, those geologists all are hell-bent on trying to "prove" God doesn't exist!

If they are large and have been in the jar a long time, they are more of a distraction than properly-sized once with just the faintest pickling.

Chocolate is a New World food. The absence of chocolate proves this is a diagram of ancient Egyptian origin.

Carson was talking about the Food Pyramids not the Pyramids of Giza. Joseph built and filled the Great Food Pyramids of the FDA. Member? You member.

Anyway, that's his story and he's sticking to it.
