Is YEC science? Is is even really a theory?

[Kylie]

Pretty thorough, wasn't He?

Can you tell us what the difference is between a world where the flood never happened and a world where it did happen but all evidence was cleaned up?

Your next door neighbor could be thirty feet tall.

 

[Kylie]

Your next door neighbor could be thirty feet tall.

And why would this be?

 

[AV1611VET]

And why would this be?

Just out of curiosity, have you read the Bible?

And for the record, the answer to your question would be the existence of the Nephilim, who were all but wiped out in the Flood.

With a few exceptions.

I have answered this question before. Yes, I have read it.

And for the record, the answer to your question would be the existence of the Nephilim, who were all but wiped out in the Flood.

Circular reasoning. You are assuming that the Bible's claims that they existed in the first place are correct. You can not show this.

With a few exceptions.

So some survived? Please, show me a 30 foot tall person.

In any case, since you claim there are some possible exceptions, then there could well be 30 foot tall people with or without a flood, so you have not provided an example of a difference between a world where the flood never happened and a world where it did happen but all evidence was cleaned up.

Wow.

Congratulations for talking yourself out of understanding the difference between "a world where the flood never happened and a world where it did happen but all evidence was cleaned up".

Obviously none that you would understand.

Perhaps someone else here could explain it to you?

 

[driewerf]

You got better explanations?

I don't need to explain away the absence of evidence for events that didn't happen anyway.
Rooting in reality spares me a lot of that kind of tasks.

 

[dlamberth]

Wow.

Something I'm not understanding here is why even bother cleaning up the flood if it's story is told anyway in the Bible?

 

[AV1611VET]

I don't need to explain away the absence of evidence for events that didn't happen anyway.

That's rich, coming from someone who plays connect-the-dots and glosses over more missing links than a picket fence in a windstorm.

How much of reality are you willing to root in, though?

I'm not sure what you're asking here, Lamb.

Sorry.

 

[dlamberth]

I'm not sure what you're asking here, Lamb.

Sorry.

Well, on the one hand your claim is that God cleaned up after the flood. And on the other hand your claim is that God tells us about the flood in the Bible. Why the clean up if God is going to tell us about it in the first place?

Are you serious?

"Hey, mom. I spilled milk all over the floor. And since I admitted it, clean it up, will you?"

At least we have the dots (like human chromosome 2, ERV's, thousands of fossils, pseudogenes, the geographical distribution of plants and animals etc). And we know that there are connections. That's much more than you have.

Darwins Tree vs God's Bushes?

Evolution tries to take something digital and make it analog.

But they're using a modem that doesn't work.

Too much noise, and too many information packets missing.

God felt guilt with the mess left by the flood? That makes no sense to me. Please explain.

All of his victims were buried in the mud?

"But there's no milk missing from the refrigerator, the cloths are all clean and the kitchen floor has old cat paw prints on it."
