[QUOTE="Jro, post: 56392760"] Do you believe that there were a very small number of kinds on the ark which, upon disembarking, immediately gave birth to the genera that we see today? I find difficulty with your stance because there is no textual support or evidence for your belief. It seems that you've concocted this belief in response to a practical difficulty (ie it's hard to believe that every species in the world fit on an ark with measurements given in the bible). Do you think it's appropriate to invent additional miracles to support biblical text that has been challenged by scientific discoveries? How do you think this is different from modifying an interpretation of the bible (ie the flood was local instead of global) in light of scientific discoveries? How do you think inventing/rediscovering unmentioned miracles is different from Islam and Mormonism, which also made additions to the bible? Finally, do you think that other people have the ability to accurately 'rediscover' miracles performed in history (for example, would you be willing to accept a historian who said that Caesar became Emperor because god manifested and made him Emperor?) or is this a special provenance of the religious for religion? If you have the time, please answer all of these questions as I'm very curious. [/QUOTE]
