*** It is possible for an 8 year old to have a son? That means he got his wife pregnant when he was 7 (or less than 8 years old) That is, he was about half the age I was before I could.
He sure came early.

How do you calculate this number?
|
*** Simply by adding the respective ages the ancestors were when they had their sons: for example Adam was say 135 when he had Seth, and Seth was say 132 when he had his son and so on. So by adding 135 + 132 +...I arrived at a total of 2304 from the creation of Adam to the death of Joseph. [ The 135, and 132 are just figures I am pulling from memory here but I added up the correct figures taken from the bible to get the 2304].
Also it is evident from the biblical and egyptian records that Joseph died before the dynasty of Raameses I which started around 1300 BC. So when we add the 2304 to 1300 that gives the approximate 3600.

Do you think gravity was different then? I think that's the only way people can live that long and not age for a while.

*** I don't think gravity was different then but gravity has absolutely nothing to do with aging in my view.

I can't even imagine what a 900 year old person would look like, can you?

*** Yes, he/ she will look like a 90 year old of our time.

You can live in the cleanest environment and eat the best food but gravity still takes it's toll on our bodies.

*** Not gravity, but aging takes a toll on us. I believe this is so because even the best foods we have today are not "good" in terms of rejuvenating us.
I also think it is possible to manufacture a type of food that can do this work of rejuvenation but scientists have not yet discovered it: that food will contain a special type of carbon.
