Yes they are the same space rock material, but different sizes, and a larger one is defined as an asteroid, in the same way that a hectare describes a larger area than a square millimetre. But they are not made of brimstone as found in volcanoes. Meteor showers are not meteorites since they don't reach the ground.
What evidence do you have that meteorites are made of brimstone?You're too much.
Anyway. Sodom and Gomorrah, meteorite.
What are things I didn't claim for a $100 Alex?What evidence do you have that meteorites are made of brimstone?
That's what it says in our language, however, even if it isn't in the particular language you use.No, only you read it that way. That should tell you something.
IOW you have no evidence that the story in Gen 19 describes an event involving meteorites or asteroids.What are things I didn't claim for a $100 Alex?
But how many of the meteorites are made of brimstone?A meteorite survives the trip through the atmosphere and hits ground just as the source of your link indicates.
I'm not sure why anyone would say they never touch ground when the experts say they do. We have craters and actual meteorites all over as evidence of that.
Good grief!But how many are made of brimstone?
I don't come up with a plausible story, fall in love with my own words and then consider it is the only possible answer and everyone is wrong and I'll repeat that until no one wants to read it anymore. But there is evidence. Just as plausible as volcanism.IOW you have no evidence that the story in Gen 19 describes an event involving meteorites or asteroids.
Unless you can tell us how many meteorites were made of brimstone, if any, then your hypothesis has no evidence to support it.Good grief!
You seem to be good at putting words in my mouth. You tell me.
Except that meteorites are not made of brimstone, whereas volcanoes often produce brimstone as well as fire.I don't come up with a plausible story, fall in love with my own words and then consider it is the only possible answer and everyone is wrong and I'll repeat that until no one wants to read it anymore.

Which volcano do you think was the cause?Except that meteorites are not made of brimstone, whereas volcanoes often produce brimstone as well as fire.
The story is just fictional with fictional characters, but was probably based on the eruption of Santorini about 3500 years ago which destroyed Minoan settlements, and was perhaps the largest eruption in human history, exceeding the eruption of Krakatau in 1883 which was heard 5000 kilometres away in Australia and India and China.Which volcano do you think was the cause?
It does?It does seem we've gotten a more realistic understanding of a cubit as a measure of length.
It's almost like the claim made here by evolutionists who say the soil didn't change aging analysis from lava deposited from eruption.Unless you can tell us how many meteorites were made of brimstone, if any, then your hypothesis has no evidence to support it.
I just bought glaze for chicken. I'm not prone to eating ducks, but there are plenty around where we live and gooey stuff is left behind.What are things I didn't claim for a $100 Alex?
Do you think that myths traveled that far? Now we know why the Hebrews would have picked up their flood myths since they were under the Babylonians for a while. But they were not under Grecian influence until after those myths were written.The story is just fictional with fictional characters, but was probably based on the eruption of Santorini about 3500 years ago which destroyed Minoan settlements, and was perhaps the largest eruption in human history, exceeding the eruption of Krakatau in 1883 which was heard 5000 kilometres away in Australia and India and China.
Why not, given those Greek Islands are as close to Palestine as the rivers of Babylon, and the volcanic dust and the noise of the explosive eruption would have easily reached there. And perhaps the biblical story is just a retelling of an older borrowed story with a different plot and different characters, like the biblical flood story.Do you think that myths traveled that far?

The dust, yes. The noise maybe. But it would be an unidentified noise. And the two events would have quite a significant time differenceWhy not, given those Greek Islands are as close to Palestine as the rivers of Babylon, and the volcanic dust and the noise of the explosive eruption would have easily reached there.

Really. I'm sure it must be so if you spoke it.Unless you can tell us how many meteorites were made of brimstone, if any, then your hypothesis has no evidence to support it.
