That would depend on the interpretation of the Bible one is using. If one interprets the Bible as saying there was a world wide flood within the last 100,000 then science has something to say.
Hi,
And your point is valid. When I looked up the supposed flooding of the earth 1700 BCE or so, it was from the point of view that I had actually done all the begets and begats in the Bible. Notice, I had done that work. I did not read about someone else doing it. I did that work. And it takes awhile to do.
Adam, using the very same methods, is roughly 4700 years old. So, I spread that around when I was done trying to find everything that I could find wrong with the Bible.
Those are the only two items I found. Within weeks, a Baptist came up to me and said that I was wrong. I asked him what he had. He gave me a book. Only, it was written so difficultly that I could not understand it.
I had my first nibble though, that my work might have an error. I waited and waited. Finally in and about 1996, or 1997 or so, (Age puts a damper on old work timing.), I found a gruop that I could call.
I made the phone call and in those days it was not cheap. I left of all things, my few words about the age of Adam, and the fact that most people living then, (if my work was correct), did not notice that they died in any way, if Noah's Ark actually happened in 1700 BCE or so, I left them on a voice recorder commonly used back then.
Oh by the way, Geology is a stretch for me. It is important to understand the point being tested. So, I was a little further removed than I wanted to be, but I found nothing else that would stand up with a proof.
They eventually got back to me, and they could show plausibly the errors in my work, and they in fact told me what all those references in the Bible said. It is that Noah's Ark is prehistory, and not easly dated. They went into begats and begats, missing people in the various timelines and how begets and begats were used in ways other than we do today, which is father son. Jesus, being begat by David, is one example.
Studying the Bible to me for veractity, is to study what you know. So, rumors can't be used. Other people's work can't be used.
LOVE,
