<< Dear Colleagues:
A dear friend sent me a story about a NASA contractor discovering evidence
that the sun must have stood still about a day (Joshua 10:8 and 12,13) and
even gone backwards ten degrees (2 Kings 20:9-11) at some time in the past.
Does anyone know the history of this urban legend? I'd like to send that
to my friend too. >>
This tale has been pretty thoroughly studied and debunked. For a thorough treatment from an Evangelical Christian source, see:
