| | :: Steven Collins also shows numerous other errors in this view. It contradicts biblical chronology, it's in the completely wrong location, it isn't east of Bethel and Ai, etc, etc, etc. Watch the lecture from Collins I posted above to get some more context. Interestingly, even many of Wood's own colleagues (like Scott Stirpling) think Collins is right and Sodom is Tall el-Hammam. It's already been shown that Tall el-Hammam, aside from being in the right place and being destroyed in the right time, was destroyed by a fiery air burst (some have suggested a meteorite), which is amazingly similar to the Bible's description of Sodom being destroyed by fire and brimstone from heaven.[[User:Korvex|Korvex]] ([[User talk:Korvex|talk]]) 22:45, 30 April 2017 (EDT) | | :: Steven Collins also shows numerous other errors in this view.

| − | :::And I am by no means arguing that Wood is correct. In fact, while I don't know much about either Wood or Collins, I think you and Collins are correct based on what yo just wrote. But can we still say something like "some archeologists like Bryant Wood have claimed so-and-so, but most archeologists, such as Steven Collins, have called such claims false because of so-and-so." Is there a problem with this? --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 22:51, 30 April 2017 (EDT) | + | :::And I am by no means arguing that Wood is correct.

| | :: Nope, no problem with that. But the first thing we need to do is re-write the section about finding Sodom, and then after that, we can add in the views of Wood. I've already read upon the debate between Wood and Collins, so I'll be able to eventually take care of that. I'd hope to get this section of the page re-written by Friday.[[User:Korvex|Korvex]] ([[User talk:Korvex|talk]]) 17:20, 1 May 2017 (EDT) | | :: Nope, no problem with that.
