Not sure when or where I first heard this, but there are hypotheses concerning the history of
Devils Tower, et al, which *GASP* do not conform to mainstream narrative of history and geology.

Supposedly Devils Tower and similar formations are basically
the fossilized remains of what were once colossal trees or stalks.
It's even been put forth that DT was the Tree of Life.

Apparently this notion is pretty widespread,
however I've only been aware of it for a couple of years.

I have no dogmatic positions on the matter, I simply find it all very fascinating.

The tree of life, WOW. You just blew my mind for a second. The tree of life was in the garden of Eden, which was near the Euphrates river which is near Turkey or that area.
As the Indian fable goes, a Giant grizzly bear scratched the tower trying to get fleeing Indians that hid on top. That is where its shape came from.

I guess you skipped over that part of the Bible where a Great
Flood pretty much rearranges the entire surface of the Earth?

What we now call the Euphrates River, and the river
described in Genesis 2 that was called Euphrates,
are two different bodies of water, neither of which
existed concurrently nor coincided with each other.

Also, the four rivers named in Genesis 2 were from a main river
which flowed out of Eden, and then separated into the four headwaters.

And yes, I'm aware of the Indian legend.
Yeah, that's totally how it must have happened.
:rolleyes:

are you telling me that the old Euphrates and the new are two different Euphrate's? does that mean that mt Arrarat is different too as well as Syria-Assyria, Are you telling me that the ark floated to the completely opposite side of the earth before touching down?

Who renamed the Euphrates? It must have been in honor of the old Euphrates, maybe the Yellowstone river was Euphrates? but then there were 4 rivers that flowed from the garden, much like the four in Turkey and surrounding. Now there is so much confusion.

Maybe you should just stay in the teen forum where you can
thoughtfully discuss Christian Metal bands and flirt with the girls.

[h=1]Daniel 4King James Version (KJV)[/h][SUP]
10 [/SUP]Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great.

[SUP]11 [/SUP]The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth:
[SUP]12 [/SUP]The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof, and all flesh was fed of it.



Here is a video about the subject of giant trees on earth and the remnants, don't worry about "flat earth" being in the title, it's not in the content of the video.

never forget, this is where our own and pagan ancestors 'sacrificed' their children to other gods,
and 'still do to this day'...

this ceremony has definitely continued; I know this, for I was a part of being a 'sacrifice'...
they tried, but my Saviour 'stepped-in'...the memories are there but have no
power or consequence over me now or ever will, since Jesus separated me and now I belong to Him ...
PG and Amen...

I know that people say the US is Gods country but placing Eden there is OTT!

If the Garden of Eden were in the States it would have been plowed under by now and made into a parking lot for Walmart.

Shhhhh! tanakh, tourist, not so loud. You'll spoil the fun. :rolleyes:

*Lynx assumes an attitude of rapt attention.

Do go on Huck, tell us about Eden being in the USA. Is it somewhere near Southwest Tennessee perhaps? That's where I live, and it's about as close to Heaven as we can get on Earth. In fact it only costs us 50 cents to make a call direct to God... it's a local call.

Thought maybe this was going to be a Missing 411 kinda thread but instead it's a There are no Forests on Earth thread.

I kinda doubt there's evidence for the Tree of Life being in the United States and 1,000 feet tall.

I didn't say Eden was in the USA, you said I said it.
What I did was disseminate an existing hypothesis,
I.e., the possibility that DT was once organic material.
Maybe read more carefully and completely before ignorantly commenting?

There was a Big Flood, remember?
It covered the planet in sediment.
A lot of sediment.
Eden could be under anyplace on Earth, including the USA,
and including possibly being buried under ice in Antarctica.

I have unlimited long distance,
but I usually just send God a knee mail.

The Tree Of Life?

I know very little about this topic, yet something tells me it merits further investigation. We know from scripture that there were giants. Enoch speaks of the Nephilim, Deuteronomy speaks of the Anak-im.

I believe Goliath/Anak (Anakim?) are descended from such life-forms as well (6 fingers isn't quite human).

If there were giants, it's possible there were also giant trees. There are Native American legends of giants running across the plains scooping up buffalo and devouring them as they ran (if stories be true). The idea of scooping up a 1,500 lb. bovine animal under your arms seems far-fetched in the extreme (having never seen one myself), however, my curiosity exists.

Thanks to the OP for sharing this topic!

I found this web page very interesting. Perhaps you will as well?

Numbers 13:33
"There also we saw the Nephilim (the sons of Anak are part of the Nephilim); and we became like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight."

Deuteronomy 1:28
'Where can we go up? Our brethren have made our hearts melt, saying, "The people are bigger and taller than we; the cities are large and fortified to heaven. And besides, we saw the sons of the Anakim there."'

Deuteronomy 9:2
a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom you know and of whom you have heard it said, 'Who can stand before the sons of Anak?'

Numbers 13:28
"Nevertheless, the people who live in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large; and moreover, we saw the descendants of Anak there.

2 Samuel 21:19
There was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
(Translational error?)

1 Chronicles 20:6
Again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot; and he also was descended from the giants.


This leads to a further question, if the flood destroyed all life, where did these giants/hybrids come from? Was the flood world-wide or localized?

Genesis 6:17
"Behold, I, even I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish.

There are other trees that big. I have seen some of them in different states. All trees were once that big. All the trees we know are babies because we cut them all down. Some trees live to be a thousand years or much older and keep growing the entire time. Its not the tree of life. It also says there is a spinning sword of fire or something like that and many other things about the garden of eden that could not equate to Wyoming in my opinion.

Well you won't believe me, so I won't tell you that the nephilim and their offspring, many of them at least, used portals to get offworld to avoid the flood. They settled on Mars for a while. But remember.....I'm not telling you that.

i was under the impression that entrance to Eden is on the Mercy Seat, above the cherubim, beyond the flaming sword of fire. not buried under mounds of silt.
