NOVA producing 2-hour Dover special

When you apply all this to your Secular Humanistic Uniformitarian Evolutionistic theorizing, then maybe-----just maybe------I'll be sympathetic to your diatribes..... NOT BEFORE. As for the rest of your drivel, ANYBODY------no matter what they actually believe can call himself "a christian." The fact remains that 200 years ago, they had neither the research nor the technology to disprove the FLOOD. They didn't even know about thumb prints or DNA or the need for gasoline. So please stick a banana in it fella, your arrogance is showing.

200 years ago was the early 1800's and the birth of modern Geology. When Christian geologists tried to find evidence for the global flood, what they found instead was evidence against the flood. Unlike yourself, they were able to swallow their pride and acknolwedge that they had been wrong. You could learn a valuable lesson in humilty from such people, something your religion is supposed to value is it not?

Thumb prints, DNA and gasoline have absoutely nothing todo with geology.

In the end, it all boils down to fear. You have failed time and time again to understand even the most basic principles of science. And when presented with these unknowns, you lash out, not with reason or logic, but with emotional rhetoric. I cannot imagine what it would be like to live with such fear, and you have my pity that you must suffer it.

This is ONLY because the general notion accepted at that time was that the FLOOD was but a gentle rising of water. So when the FLOOD abated Noah would have had no problems to deal with. The amature geologists ----- and most of them were but amatures because they had other professions where they made money saw that such a FLOOD could not account for what they saw. They were right about SUCH A FLOOD. But that is where they left it and that is why there is this contention today.

What's with all the personal snide remarks of late?

Well, lets be honest here, its PBS. If we lived in a society that valued inteligence, people would watch more shows like NOVA. However, we do not, and PBS is pretty much bottom of the barrel when it comes to viewership. Most of the people who see this will be people that already know about the trial, and for the most part, that already understand and accept the ToE.

Hopefully though it will get shown in some classroms. It may be too late for the population at large, but theres always time in the upcoming generations.

Why must you make excuses instead of accepting reality? This is the flimisest flood argument I have ever seen. They thought it was the wrong type of flood? Come on Nip, if this is the basis of your dismissal of your forefathers work, then your arguement is in worse shape than I thought.

Do you have actual evidence, that is to say, empirical, verifiable, logically consistent evidence for a global flood? Because to date, there is none except absolute garbage like the RATE project and other fluff peices which fall apart with only the slightest of questioning

Evolution is not endorced by GOD.

Nova is fantastic. What's amazing, though, is its production value. Despite the low viewership it manages to pull off an incredibly clean and good-looking, good-sounding production.
