Curious that this impact – or airburst, whatever the case may be – chose to wipe out just the Clovis people, and not the ancestors of the 'first nations' we 'recognize' today, nor any other species of fauna.

Come on, Min, now suddenly you even doubt there ever were humans in NA before Clovis...? You've conveniently forgotten about Monteverde and Cactus Hill, etc., and you now deny Charlie's work too?
Seems rather opportunistic TBH. And not too subtle.
I think you need to re-read Matthew 26:14 and on...
is a euphemism for modern Amerind tribes living here when Europeans arrived. They would be among the first to denounce the idea that anyone was here before them.
I doubt the Abenaki ( for example ) lived in Vermont when Firestone's comet hit. Vermont would have been buried by over a mile of ice.
Creation -1600 AD Abenaki creation traditions linked to origins at Patambagok, Lake Champlain/Champlain Valley. Abenaki creation and transformer traditions centered in present Vermont and New Hampshire.
They seem to be creationists!
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
Well as long as the Amerind peoples use that fairy tale, and the others, 'politically correct', let them, that will be the leading concept.
It is of course simple blackmail. And total bullshit.

A few years ago they tried to have a US senator that they own beef up the law which gives them first rights to any bones found because they must be "ancestors."
Perhaps you have heard of that senator.
His name is John McCain.

Mythology, E.P. Many cultures made up stories about the beginning of the world and/or humanity.
Doesn't make it true.

There are people who swear that this burned cheese sandwich is the image of "jesus."
People see what they want to see and the brain tries to make order out of random data.
I suspect it works the same with "mythology."

"The history of Keene says that Native Americans never lived here," said Robert Goodby, a Stoddard Archeologist studying the historic finds at the site of the new Keene Middle School off of Maple Avenue. "And here we have evidence of them living here 12,000 years ago. ... “
If their histories say that “Native Americans” never lived there, but we have evidence that somebody lived there, then the pretty clear conclusion is that the “Native Americans” were not the “First Peoples.”
