[You'll all love this ... he's done it again!]
You might believe that science has something to do with all this foreign technolgy which is not of the earth's nature and that has been introduced in the last 100 years. It doesn't.
There hasn't been this kind of technology since 10,500 BC, and then all of a sudden it appears and is introduced in the last 100 years?

Well, Jake, we were well on our way with technology, then your religion came along and damaged the intellectual and scientific pursuits for a long while.
Okay I give, is this an aliens thing, or a Noah thing, or an Atlantis thing? Come on Jake be more specific in your insanity.
If you would actually crack open a history book or a science book you would see that technology has been a long trek from the dark ages of the 1400's to the present day.
But I guess it's easier to start off with wild assumptions and a total disregard for the facts.
So this sort of technology has always existed...? Why the Hell didn't anyone ever use it? Seems awfully silly to carve messages into stone, eventually pen them on thick parchment, much later print them in bulk on now primitive presses, and FINALLY use technology such as you're using.
That's among the dumbest things I've ever heard (I hang out here too often).
Twelve thousand years ago, the temperate parts of the world were covered in ice and humanity was generally living hand-to-mouth in most places where it had found room, and there is no legitimate evidence of civilization anywhere until the glaciers receded.

Since?
I'd love to know what evidence he has for 13,000-year-old cell phones, satellites, cars, jets, computers, pacemakers, and the sources of fuel/electricity for them. Even the Flintstones didn't have all that.

Since David D.G. covered the "since" bit...
The same thing could be said at any point in human history.
Ancient Rome had concrete, indoor plumbing, sewers, and paved roads "all of a sudden."
The Bronze Age civilizations learned to create metal alloys and make better weapons, armour, and ships "all of a sudden."
Asia created gunpowder, written language, permanent ink, silk, and paper "all of a sudden."
In short, you're talking out of your ass, and you're an idiot.
"in the last 100 years"
We need to talk.
When science is alien magic, it's easier to deny what it has actually accomplished, like the discovery of our actual origins. And to keep entertaining fairy tales instead. Reality denial in favor of extreme ideologies. UFO millenarist conspiracy theories are common among anti-government extremist groups. Also a common theme to promote racism, denying and reappropriating impressive monuments from ancient human civilizations.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
