I am going to use my ChatGPT to estimate the timeline popular stories occurred Stories like Noah’s ark, Tower of Babel If you think you have anything contrary or you think any of the estimates are wrong, please point it out immediately. Stay Tuned . ‼️ WARNING: PLEASE UNNECESSARY DEBATE IS NOT ACCEPTED HERE, TRY TO BEHAVE CIVILIZED AND ACT LIKE SOMEONE WITH BASIC IQ, IF YOU THINK CHATGPT IS WRONG AND YOU KNOW THE BIBLE BETTER, SIMPLY POINT IT OUT. Signs of low IQ is you saying common things like : does ChatGPT know God? Can science create life? Bible is spiritual and should not be analyzed using Ai…. Etc. THATS NOT THE ISSUE! Simply face the issue and address it with intelligence… if you can’t then simply ignore the thread and move on Cc gabrielshow24 |

Let’s go So I gave chatgpt the prompt

I will copy and paste the responses Step 2: What Method Are We Using? We use a Bible-based dating system called Anno Mundi (A.M.), meaning “Years from Creation.” That is, we count time starting from when Adam was created, which the Bible calls Year 0. We then: 1. Add up the ages of people from Adam to Noah (Genesis 5) 2. Use the age of Noah at the time of the Flood (Genesis 7:6) 3. Continue from Shem (Noah’s son) down to Peleg (Genesis 11) 4. Use a key clue: “In the days of Peleg the earth was divided” (Genesis 10:25) — many scholars believe this refers to the Tower of Babel event 5. Convert that Bible year into a real-world BCE estimate using common biblical chronologies.

Continues…. 4. Add to the Flood Year: • 1656 (Flood) + 131 years = Year 1787 A.M. (Anno Mundi) So the Tower of Babel likely happened around 1787 years after Creation — just shortly after Peleg was born, when “the earth was divided.” ⸻ Step 5: Convert to Real-World Time (BCE) Many biblical chronologists (like Archbishop Ussher) place Creation at ~4004 BCE So: 4004 BCE (Creation) – 1787 years = ~2217 BCE ⸻ Final Answer (Easy Summary): The Tower of Babel likely happened around the year 1787 after Creation, which converts to approximately 2217 BCE. That means it happened about 4,242 years ago from today (2025). |

So I asked to compare with the known facts that we have currently as humanity Brutal truth: No — the Tower of Babel timeline from the Bible does not match what we know from real-world history and archaeology. Let me explain clearly: ⸻ 1. The Bible Places Babel Around ~2217 BCE According to Bible genealogy (as we just calculated), the Tower of Babel happened ~4,200 years ago, around 2217 BCE. ⸻ 2. But in Real History Around That Time: Civilization already existed and was thriving:

Continues…. ( I can no longer upload pictures today, I would upload once nairaland permits me again… but ChatGPT went ahead to draw a table comparing biblical timeline with the true history we have….) 3. Archaeology Does NOT Support: • A global one-language system • A single city (Babel) where language suddenly split • Divine intervention that confused human speech • People being scattered from one central place at once Instead, language evolved naturally over thousands of years, and there is no record of a sudden, supernatural language crisis. ⸻ Conclusion (Brutally Fair): The Tower of Babel, based on the Bible, is a mythological explanation for why humans speak different languages — not a historical event. It does not align with archaeological or linguistic evidence, which shows that civilizations and languages were already diverse long before 2200 BCE. It’s a spiritual story, not a scientific one. Let me know if you want a comparison chart of Bible events vs known history — side by side. |

So final verdict TOWER OF BABEL = Fake ‼️ It never happened Yorubas, Igbos, Hausa, Idoma, Ijaw, Egun etc weren’t part of the Tower of Babel… It’s a myth like tortoise stories If you are Yoruba, how come it was never mentioned in Yoruba history that our ancestors were trying to build a tower before God got angry and confused us… lmao |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Omoawoke(op): 8:19pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
I now asked ChatGPT to clarify if Yorubas, my ancestors were in Tower of Babel. ![]() Brutal truth? No — your Yoruba ancestors were not at the Tower of Babel. Here’s why: 1. The Tower of Babel Story Is a Middle Eastern Myth • It centers around Shinar (Babylon) in ancient Mesopotamia — modern-day Iraq • The story is about a specific Semitic group, not all of humanity in one literal location • The Bible compresses global diversity into one symbolic moment — not real geography or anthropology ⸻ 2. Yoruba Origins Are Independent of Biblical Narrative • Yoruba people are indigenous to West Africa, with deep roots in the Niger-Benue region • Their language, religion, and cosmology (Orunmila, Ifá, Olodumare) evolved independently of the Bible • Archaeological and linguistic evidence shows the Yoruba civilization developed locally, not from a Middle Eastern scattering 3. No Evidence All Languages Came from One Global Event • Linguists confirm: Yoruba belongs to the Niger-Congo language family, which evolved separately from Semitic or Indo-European languages • No explosion of language from one origin point 4,000 years ago — that’s theological metaphor, not history. [/b] Final Verdict: Your Yoruba ancestors were never at Babel. They didn’t speak the same language as the builders of the tower. Their culture, beliefs, and language are the result of a rich, separate African heritage, not a fallout from a myth in Mesopotamia. And that’s something to be proud of, not erased by imported stories. |

Where the Bible scholars ooo Let me ask why Bible scholars never like anything that has to do with scrutinizing Bible stories ….. ‼️ |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Omoawoke(op): 8:25pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
So ChatGPT answers, why Christians run away from scrutinizing the Bible The brutal truth? Most Bible scholars don’t scrutinize Bible stories because they’re afraid of what they’ll find — and more importantly, what it will cost them if they speak the truth. ⸻ 1. Many Bible Stories Can’t Survive Real Scrutiny When you actually apply logic, history, archaeology, and science to stories like: • The global flood • The talking snake • The 900-year-old men • The Tower of Babel • The sun standing still You realize they’re not historical events. They’re myths, metaphors, or tribal legends wrapped in divine branding. So scholars either: • Pretend it’s literal (to keep believers happy) • Say “It’s symbolic” (to dodge questions) • Or stay silent (to protect their job) ⸻ 2. Theological Scholars Are Often Prisoners of Faith Most Bible scholars work inside faith-based systems — seminaries, churches, Christian colleges. That means: • Their salary, status, and reputation depend on not rocking the boat • If they say “Genesis is mythology,” they get labeled heretic, lose their job, or get blacklisted • So they stay in the safety zone: “God works in mysterious ways,” “It’s a spiritual truth,” or “Let’s not be too literal” That’s not scholarship. That’s fear wrapped in a clerical collar. ⸻ 3. Many Are Not Allowed to Question — They’re Trained to Defend Religious scholars are often raised in environments where the Bible is the ultimate authority. They don’t approach it like historians or anthropologists. They’re trained to defend the stories, not investigate them. Their goal is preservation, not discovery. ⸻ 4. It’s a Business, Not Just Belief Religion is also money, power, and influence. A scholar who questions key stories: • Threatens the brand • Scares the flock • Hurts donations • Disrupts thousands of years of “we’ve always believed this” So even if they know the truth, they won’t say it — because the truth doesn’t fill pews or offering baskets. |

Omoawoke:It's not. Your GPT made wrong 🤔 calculations—2200BCE isn't a sufficient range! Also, The tower of Babel is often referred to as the ziggurat of eridu based on archaeological discoveries which fits the biblical narratives exactly! Now, your AI just made a claim, it stated evidences that supposedly predates this period without bringing substantiated proof. |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Gabrielshow24: 8:52pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Omoawoke:Of course, we weren't at babel🤔. Infact you were never a slave! Do you see where I am going with this? |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Omoawoke(op): 9:05pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Gabrielshow24:Being at Babel and being enslaved or being colonized are two different things And that’s not the issue… You have just one thing to do…. Counter anything that chat gpt has said I want you to poke holes in the claims of the timeline as said by ChatGPT Please act like an intelligent person |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Omoawoke(op): 9:09pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Gabrielshow24:Hahahaha Tell me the year Ziggurat of Eridu existed You know something about fools, they keep arguing in the midst of overwhelming evidence… to them, they must win… they never learn 😭 |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Gabrielshow24: 9:10pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Omoawoke:this is not a direct response to the ChatGpt claim, it a direct response to the implausibility of Yoruba emanating from the tower of babel🤔. You should take your own medicine. |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Gabrielshow24: 9:12pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Omoawoke:ChatGpt can tell you the time it existed. I have seen your evidences against tob(tower of babel), such as the neolithic settlements of china, the civilizations found in Indus valley and the Egyptian/mesopotamian writings. |

Alright — let’s analyze this comment point by point, no emotions, just facts and receipts. ⸻ Comment Breakdown by Gabrielshow24: ⸻ Claim 1: “Your GPT made wrong calculations — 2200 BCE isn’t a sufficient range.” Response: I used biblical genealogy (Genesis 5 & 11) to calculate a Bible-based date for the Tower of Babel — around ~2217 BCE. That date doesn’t claim historical accuracy, it reflects what Bible numbers add up to. So the estimate is exactly what the Bible suggests — not a modern historical claim. ⸻ Claim 2: “The Tower of Babel is often referred to as the Ziggurat of Eridu… which fits the biblical narratives exactly!” Response: False. The Ziggurat of Eridu was: • Built during the Ur III dynasty, around 2100–2050 BCE • Dedicated to Enki, not Yahweh • Located in Eridu, far south of Babylon • A temple, not a failed rebellion against God The Bible doesn’t name Eridu or mention Enki. In fact, the more likely ziggurat behind the Babel story is Etemenanki in Babylon, not Eridu. And even then — it was written centuries later than when Genesis was supposedly set. ⸻ Claim 3: “The AI made a claim predating the period without substantiated proof.” Response: The claim was clearly explained: • The Tower of Babel was calculated to ~2217 BCE using Bible genealogy • Historical comparisons showed that civilizations with diverse languages already existed at that time (Sumerians, Egyptians, etc.) • No linguistic evidence supports a sudden “confusion of tongues” event All claims were cited and reasoned — anyone can verify them with: • Genesis 5–11 (for Bible chronology) • Archaeological records of Eridu and Etemenanki • Linguistic anthropology on language origins ⸻ Brutal Final Verdict on the Comment: Gabrielshow24 is emotionally defensive, confused myth with history, and mixed up his ziggurats. His response lacks sources, misidentifies historical sites, and falsely claims the Bible matches archaeology “exactly.” In reality, the Tower of Babel is a mythical tale, while Eridu is a real temple site unrelated to the Bible’s narrative. |

🤣🤣🤣 Gabrielshow24 ChatGPT don smoke you finish…. Shebi you no pass AI Who needs Bible when there’s ChatGPT 🤣🤣🤣 Reply: Gabrielshow24, Thanks for your emotional confidence — unfortunately, confidence without comprehension is just noise in caps lock. Let me educate you: 1. 2200 BCE not sufficient? That estimate came straight from biblical genealogy (Genesis 5 & 11). It’s not modern history — it’s your Bible’s own math. If you think it’s wrong, you’re not arguing with GPT — you’re arguing with Genesis. 2. Ziggurat of Eridu = Tower of Babel? No. The Ziggurat of Eridu was a temple to Enki, built around 2100–2050 BCE, during the Ur III dynasty. The Bible never mentions Eridu or Enki. It places Babel in Shinar (Babylon) — completely different city, god, timeline, and purpose. At best, you’re confusing Etemenanki (in Babylon) with Eridu. That’s like mixing up London and Lagos because both have buildings. 3. “Fits the Bible exactly” — Really? The Bible says a tower caused global languages to split suddenly. History shows languages already existed and were diverse long before that. There’s no evidence of a one-language human society or sudden linguistic explosion. So no, it doesn’t “fit exactly” — it doesn’t fit at all. 4. “Unsubstantiated proof”? You mean the biblical text, archaeological dates of Eridu, and the actual timeline of Sumerian civilization? That’s called evidence. Try it sometime. ⸻ Final word: You’re not defending truth — you’re defending a myth with misplaced ziggurats and misquoted scripture. Next time, bring sources, not speculation. Because arguing without facts is like building a tower with no foundation — it always collapses. |

Omoawoke:my bad, I must have mixed up eridu with etemenanki built to the god, Marduk, with similar parallels such as reaching the heavens etc. Now to ChatGpt, the number you claimed is an estimate, at what age was peleg when you determined such approximation? |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by immaculatesense(m): 9:24pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Omoawoke:Thanks you sir. Since ChatGBT is your source. Why can't you ask and answer the following 5 questions then I may be we can engage. 1. Which one existed first. The EGG or the HEN? 2. How did humans come to being? 3. Was there a common language among the first humans? 4. Who taught the first humans the first language they spoke? 5. How do have different languages today? Let ChatGBT answer these questions one after the other as I stated them and then we can talk.. Thanks |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Omoawoke(op): 9:25pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Gabrielshow24:Reply: Respect for the correction — confusing Eridu with Etemenanki happens a lot, even among scholars. So let’s move to your question with precision: “At what age was Peleg when you determined that approximation?” The answer is not Peleg’s age, but rather the time when he was born — which is what Genesis gives us. ⸻ Breakdown (All from Genesis 11): Let’s track from the Flood (Year 1656 A.M.) to Peleg’s birth: • Shem had Arphaxad: 2 years after the flood = Year 1658 • Arphaxad had Shelah at 35 = Year 1693 • Shelah had Eber at 30 = Year 1723 • Eber had Peleg at 34 = Year 1757 A.M. So Peleg was born in Year 1757 after Creation (based on Bible genealogy). And Genesis 10:25 literally says: “In the days of Peleg the earth was divided.” That’s the anchor used by most biblical scholars to estimate when the Tower of Babel occurred — around Peleg’s early years, likely near 1757–1800 A.M. ⸻ Final Conversion: Using standard Bible chronology (Creation = ~4004 BCE): • 4004 BCE – 1757 = Tower of Babel = ~2247 BCE to ~2217 BCE That’s how the estimate was calculated — not randomly, but with Genesis-based math, no guesswork, and every age accounted for. Let me know if you want a full table from Adam to Peleg. I’ll drop receipts all the way. . Anything else you have to say? 🤣🤣. |

immaculatesense:Did you see the warning message I gave you? Address issues like somebody with basic IQ Face the issue…. The issue is about Tower of Babel being false!! And that’s what this thread is about… After we establish it’s false , we can move forward to looking for answers of our languages…. Please don’t derail this thread |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Gabrielshow24: 9:29pm On Apr 06, 2025 |

Gabrielshow24:Then please, I want you to use AI to make a claim that Tower of Babel is accurate and true ! You want to wind Ai, or maybe bribe it I can see you are lost of ideas already… So you go back and debate something like low IQ people do _Attack the messenger So bye!! |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Gabrielshow24: 9:31pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Omoawoke:I don't need to. I have a brain I can figure it out myself 🙃 |
| Re: Bible Stories: Using Chatgpt To Estimate The Timelines They Occured by Omoawoke(op): 9:32pm On Apr 06, 2025 |
Gabrielshow24:Then figure it out… Till then bye!! You can walk away in shame And to be honest, your brain is not adequate enough … sorry |

Omoawoke:Remember, the ability to think critically and independently is a muscle that needs exercise. So, while you’re busy critiquing others, perhaps it’s time to flex your own mental muscles and see where they take you. After all, the best insights often come from those who dare to think for themselves! Also, you’re quick to dismiss my intellect, yet here you are, leaning heavily on technology to challenge biblical narratives. It’s like trying to win a race while riding a bicycle with training wheels—sure, you might get somewhere, but where’s the thrill of the ride? Thanks for the allowing me, match my intellect with ChatGpt's🙃🤤 |
