There are loads of biblical refrences to men in caves.
When David left Gath he escaped to the cave of Adullam (1 Samuel 22:1), and later he and his men were in the back of a cave at En Gedi when Saul entered (1 Samuel 24:1–4). Others who spent time in caves were Elijah (1 Kings 19:9,13), Obadiah’s one hundred prophets (whom he supplied with food and water—1 Kings 18:4,13), the ‘men of Israel’ when the Philistines were camped at Micmash (1 Samuel 13:6), and the Israelites at the time of Gideon (Judges 6:2).
This is only a few.

No, actually He died and was in the grave. These spirits were preached to in the days of Noah...
1Pe 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
1Pe 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

You and some of these others can't agree on that verse in the Bible you and they say is 100% accurate.
If it is so accurate, why can't you people understand it the same way?
So you might not be right about Genesis 1 after all?
Humans were created 6,000 years ago you say?
I'll go with the overwhelming body of scientific evidence that indicates humans have been around a whole lot longer than that.

Christ went into Hades and preached to all those who lived before him, that includes those in the days of Noah and those before the flood and, of course, Adam and Eve. That's why Christ came into this world: to reverse the fall. He didn't ignored those before Him. So, he freed them from Hades and took them in Heaven.

You are doing nothing more than parroting some ignorant idea that Christ went to hell. There is nothing in the bible to support such an idea, as well as common sense would tell us the Son of God would never ever have any reason to go to hell. Hell, the place made for unbelievers and those that despise God. It is utter insanity to believe such a thought.
Here is what Adam Clarke said about it, and it is as logical an understanding of this passage as there could be.
His long and critical inspection of this text can be seen here. Scroll down to first Peter 3:19.

I don't know who Adam Clarke is and don't care about his opinion. If you think I am parroting some ignorant idea than so are you! You are parroting Adam Clarke.
Also, I did not say that Christ went in hell. I said He went in Hades. Hell and Hades are not the same thing.
Hades is the dominion of death. And what did Christ come for? To conquer death. To reverse the fall. To save Adam (also).
So, it makes a lot more sense to me that Christ descended to Hades, broke the gates of it and rescued all those who were imprisoned by death (both righteous and unrighteous).
In case you did 't know, that' s what we, christians, celebrate at Easter: the conquering of death, the passing from death to life, the resurrection of Christ. We, christians, celebrate life, not death. God is God of life, not of death.

The Nephilim or Rapha could appear as neadrathals. An interesting note about Darwin... His grandfather was actually the one who came up with "theory of evolution" and was a member of a dark society, but Charles Darwin championed it... Darwin's cousin, Farncis Gaulton invented eugenics and biometrics... and the same people that funded these also paid Karl Marx to write the 10 planks of communisim/the communist manifesto... So IMO even going down that path is not only clearly satanic, but scientifically/intellectually foolish... and "evolutionists" act like we are foolish..
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. - 1 John 3:8
All of us have been "of the devil" at times without even knowing it.
The devil has been a rebel, disobedient to good, since at least Genesis 3.

GW's "hades/Hell" idea is an RCC dogma
The Lord does not go to either to preach anything
The spirits "in prision" were the dead men walking around upon the earth
..... the same unregenerate today as then
No one is even in "hell" yet, and certainly not being preached to by anyone
.... all subjected waiting for their judgment related to the Lord's lake of fire [this is their "hell"] [Revelation 20:11-15]

When we descend to details, we can prove that no one species has changed [i.e. we cannot prove that a single species has changed]; nor can we prove that the supposed changes are beneficial, which is the groundwork of the theory.

I brought Clarke's writing up as an example of how that scripture should be understood. He, for the most part, studies on the meaning of scripture, not to add words, as you are doing.
That passage says nothing about hades or hell. That is a man's distortion of the word. You didn't come up with that on your own, and had you studied scripture, you wouldn't go along with such a notion. Therefore it becomes clear that you are indeed parroting another's words.
Easter is a pagan holiday that man has insinuated into the church. It has nothing to do with Christ, that is only an excuse for having it in church. Christ said to observe His death, to wash each others feet.....does your church do those? When is the last time you washed another believers feet? Never? Yet you celebrate easter every year like clockwork. Something Christ never so much as mentioned.
Me, to celebrate Christ, I obey what HE says, not man.
Again I will call your attention to your own words: "I said He went in Hades. Hell and Hades are not the same thing.
Hades is the dominion of death. And what did Christ come for? To conquer death. To reverse the fall."
Christ came to bring salvation to you and I. That is what the bible says, not to "conquer death".
You ever hear that scripture before? Christ came so that we wouldn't perish. Christ didn't have to die on the cross to abolish death. God could have put satan in hell without His Son having to go thru agony. It happened so that we would be saved. That is the only reason for Christ's appearance and death on this planet.

This is from the first post on this thread.
I don't see us getting any closer to the answer, just some arguing about the spirits in prison.
Did Neanderthals have a soul and/or spirit and did they or can they go to heaven?
One of you must have an answer that you can back up with some logical critical thinking I would hope.
What about the 200,000-year-old Neanderthals described by this article:
'Oldest Parisian': Neanderthal Fossil Suggests Hunting Injury
Incidentally, Institute for Creation Research says that Neanderthals were fully human, if that helps you any.

The truth is that Charles Darwin never wrote this. It is a popular lie told by creationists. It is "Quote Mine #82" in the TalkOrigin list of false quotes: Quote Mine Project: "Miscellaneous"
There is further information: TalkOrigins Archive - Feedback for October 2003
And these commonly repeated lies are a major reason to doubt anything any creationist says.
And for another fact, we have directly observed the emergence of new species. I have a list of published examples: Stones and Bones: Emergence of New Species

There are a slew of errors in your comment. Charles Darwin's grandfather Erasmus was a member of several science societies; The Lunar Society, the Lichfield Botanical Society, and Derby Philosophical Society. Benjamin Franklin was also a member of the Lunar Society recommended by his friend Darwin. Erasmus and Charles Darwin's other grandfather Josiah Wedgwood secretly raised money to support the American Revolution which they coordinated with B. Franklin. Several of Earasmus Darwin's ideas about biology, and evolution at least hinted at what his grandson would discover nearly 50 years later. There were several other influential men in the late 1700s considering how life had developed. The most significant influence on Charles Darwin's biological thinking was Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1744–1829). As a theology student, C. Darwin was very impressed with the creationist thinking of William Paley. Darwin wrote in his authobiography that he had memorized long tracts of Paley's 1802 book "Natural Theology or Evidences of the Existence and Attributes of the Deity."
