To repopulate the earth after the Flood.
wow talk about inter-breeding. Obviously we moved from Noah ark with a limited gene pool of two animals per species, to suddenly a massive gene pool. Howd that happen? From a genetics perspective that just doesnt work. That story just has to be a allegory

Let's don't. :eek:

According to science, we should all be inbred depressed.

The fact that we aren't shows me science took a hike after the Flood (not to mention during it).

By way of a blessing.

Genesis 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.

I'm sure God did the same for the animals.

Nadya Suleman (Octomom) would be envious.

That is correct.

But genetics didn't call the shots: God did.

From a combustion perspective, Daniels three friends would have been cremated.

I know you're not -- I am.

If you say It isn't, show me the two separately; or your chatter don't matter.

Once again by making that claim you put the burden of proof upon you. If you can't support your claim then it is the same as if it were false. In other words by making that claim and then running away from your burden of proof you as much as state that your belief is wrong and there is no need for me to show that it is not the word of God.

You already did that for me.

Wrong again. Science does not make that claim, you do. Your logic needs some work. You keep making claims and then you run away from them because they are so obviously wrong.

The fact that we aren't shows me science took a hike after the Flood (not to mention during it).

Wrong again, but then you knew that. When you use that phrase that is just another way of you admitting that you are wrong.

I disagree.

And once again you claim that your god is a liar. You really better hope that you are wrong about God. No matter what you lose if you are right.

You are half right. What you do is circular reasoning. And you can't even support your claim that the Bible is "God's Word".

I have and can support my view that ONLY God could have possibly written Genesis since NO ancient man of the time could have possibly written Gen 1:21. You hand waved off God's Truth because you CANNOT explain how some man, who you THINK wrote Scripture, knew the latest scientific discovery that ALL life came forth from WATER as the verse clearly states. This was announced by your "advanced" science last year.

When asked, you imply I'm uneducated and in need of your great knowledge. You CLAIM to have refuted me (proven me wrong) but ignore the Fact that you CANNOT support such an assertion. Your precious ToE is a half-truth since it is nothing more than descent within His and Their kinds. If you don't know the difference between kinds, you are admitting your own lack of education. God Bless you

When you are ready to learn I will gladly help you.

Okay. Tell me HOW ancient men who lived thousands of years before Science knew and correctly wrote of ALL life descended from Water? Only a few years ago, Evols made fun of me because I told them that ALL life came from Water. Many claimed it came from outer space on a Comet and other ridiculous claims which were wrong. Now it's your time to help me understand your view.

Was life created and brought forth from WATER as Gen 1:21 states and which today's scientists AGREED on July 26, 2016 or NOT?

I predict you will run and hide or ignore this Scientific Fact in Genesis one because of your hatred of everything Holy. Fool me. God Bless you

It's really simple. Noah came to the present Earth from Adam's Earth which was totally destroyed in the flood. ll Peter 3:6 There were some one Million prehistoric people (sons of God) living here at that time. Otherwise there would be a bottleneck 11k years ago but there was NOT. God's Truth is the Truth in every way. God Bless you

No, you simply do not understand the science that you have read and are trying to reinterpret the Bible to agree with those facts. You are so terribly off that you can be said to be "Not even wrong". And please, when I point out your obvious errors you do not get to call that hand waving.

Now you are not telling the truth about my past posts. I refuted your terrible ignorance about history several times, others have done so many times. You simply ignored or did not understand those refutations.

That is why all I can do is to point out your errors and offer to help you to learn. Until then there really is not much point in having a discussion with you.

That has been known for a long long time. What makes you think that this was a recent discovery? And you are merely reinterpreting Genesis and only agreeing with part of science. When it comes to science it is not like the Bible. You pick and choose what parts of the Bible to believe and how you are going to believe it. You don't get to do that with science.

Until you quit telling such falsehoods and actually produce some evidence of your false accusations, I shall ignore your rants. God Bless you

He likes to flame us.

Just leave him be.

Candles burn out eventually.

There were no falsehoods in that post. There was no rant. You simply have no understanding of either the Bible or of science. Which explains why you get everything wrong here.

AV, this is amazingly hypocritical of you. I did not flame Aman, even though it would be extremely easy to do so. You have to know that his interpretation of the Bible is extremely wrong. And though you may not know it his interpretation of science is even worse. I have offered to help him to learn. That is the opposite of flaming.

Dear AV, He's just like Trump who has been caught lying over a thousand times now. i am attempting to show him that God knew more 3k years ago than today's scientists falsely assume. Since he is completely illiterate of Scripture, I pay no attention to his rants and to date, he has NOT proven me wrong Scripturally.

Scientifically, he's just as weak and hides from specifics. Most of his posts are spent claiming to know a mysterious definition of "evidence". I've tried, but he never seems to be able to communicate his enlightened view of the word. Perhaps, you could help me get across to him how he is missing life. God Bless you

Here's a question you guys can tear apart. When people climb up Mount Everest, they need oxygen tanks because the air is too thin at that high of an altitude. If the flood covered the highest mountains on Earth then how did the people and animals in Noah's Ark breathe? And don't say God used magic to keep them alive.

As sea level rose, so did the air.

My pleasure, sir.

(Did you notice I didn't need to say God used magic [sic] to keep them alive? ;))
Yes because I've heard that excuse too many times and God didn't create the physics engine if he intended to cheat it.
