[QUOTE="npetreley, post: 186627, member: 2651"] Someday I'd like to see the people who think Genesis is allegory explain why Genesis documents in such detail the geneology of allegorical figures. If Adam didn't literally exist, why does the Bible tell you the age of this allegorical character when Seth was born? ;-) But back to the topic. These people are having kids at 70-162 years old. That doesn't really tell you how long their reproductive life was, because we don't know that the Bible documents every child in the geneology. (I think we can safely assume it doesn't.) But it gives you an idea, anyway. Remember, however, that these people are pre-flood. We might be able to find evidence of their civilizations, but I would guess (based on the most current theories of how the flood occurred) that most of them are under water now. Here's a sample of the ages of the fathers when the kids were born: (Genesis 5, NIV) [/QUOTE]
