Imagine believing that ancient people didn’t have medical problems caused by exposure to the sun. Also, there are aspects to it such as the fact that the majority of melanoma cases appear after the age of 60 and average life expectancy has finally risen above that age. I realize the post just opens up with the one off line about the sun, but it’s really ignorant and I keep seeing this talking point.

Honestly this seems like a big thing with these quacks, they assume everyone Pre-industrialization was some sort of Adonis Chad. Clearly modern medicine must be a load of shit cuz wouldn’t have humanity all died out if were really this fragile?
Yeah let’s ignore the high rates of infant mortality and how many historical figures died of diseases that can be cured with over the counter drugs now. There probably are SOME aspects of ancient living that are healthier than today but let’s not ignore the accomplishments of modern medicine.
My mom dated this ultra conservative religious former cop. A conversation came up where we talked about how parts of Genesis don’t make sense, specifically people’s ages. IIRC, its something like Noah being 300 when he died. He said “it’s because people were healthier back then.”
I’ve hear similar stuff like how before the flood, more water in the atmosphere caused people to live longer. This cuckoo shit is all up in protestant discourse so they can rationalize a literal interpretation.
He said “it’s because people were healthier back then.”
This is an actual Biblical concept. It’s believed that before the deluge the Earth was much different, and that for whatever reasons humans had much longer lifespans, but the deluge reshaped the Earth and now humanity has shorter longevity.
They tend not to teach this shit in normie Christian sects tho.
