The bible thumpers have an inherent desire to constantly try to date everything as early as possible.
Redating to the 8th century would put the building solidly in line with the expansion of the city under King Hezekiah which took place as Judah became part of the Arabian trade network of the Assyrian empire. Archaeologists have already noted a rapid increase in population at that time.
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.
