Ben Carson explains other phenomena using his pyramid logic



• Dinosaur Bones: “Now, some scientists say a space projectile made these great lizard beasts extinct. But I don’t think you need aliens when God is with you. My personal theory is that there was no room for these dinosaurs on the Ark. It’s a big boat, but these are big guys.”

• Trace Fossil Footprints: “In most fossils you see just one set of prints. So it’s obvious what the meaning of those is. Every time you see a single set of footprints, that is a time Jesus was carrying you. They are not alien wells, no matter what scientists say.”

• California: “Most people say California is California, but who’s to say it isn’t the Garden of Eden? Good weather, lots of beasts, fruit that it is only sometimes appropriate for you to eat? That feels true to me. That or, as various of scientists have told me, it is a football field for space ghosts, and I don’t really buy that. God doesn’t need space ghosts to plant His vines and fig trees.”

• Colosseum: “Most people look at the Colosseum and say, “That is the Colosseum.” But I think it is the Ark. Don’t ask me why it is made of stone and has windows in it and is in Rome. When you have God, you do not need alien technology.”

It was a fertile valley in Iran... until they paved it over and built a city there.
