Christiangamer asked this question in another thread.

I thought I'd re-present it here.
I have a couple questions. Where did Cains wife come from? Two, God created light before the sun. So can we say we can see light, (and not from a light bulb you dolt) without the sun? Cuz there was light before that? Where did all the water go from Noahs ark, and how did he get that many species of animals on it?

I may seem sacriligous. But I'm just asking questions that boggle me


1) Where did Cains wife come from? I think the leading answer is that Cain took one of his female relatives as a wife.
Perhaps a sister or a cousin.

2) The light? Read Revelations 21:23 and let me know if you think that might have been the light prior to the creation of the sun and the moon.

3) Where did all the water go after the flood? Into the oceans. Did you know that if you had the ability to smooth out the surface of the earth the water would be about 2 miles deep all over the globe?

4) Noah didn't need to take aboard each species of animal onto the ark.
Noah brought on board KINDS...not species.

1) The ultimate cop out with no Biblical justification if you accept a literal teaching.

2) no comment

3) Absolutely wrong. How does this get rid of the excess water? What does your 'smooth out' comment mean? The oceans already average out at about 2 1/2 miles deep. If you covered the whole Earth to about the height of Mt. Everest that makes the Earth's oceans average about 7 to 8 miles deep. Just where did this go?

You know Ark Guy, you are very challenged not only scientifically but just in any kind of logical thinking.

4) What the heck is a 'kind'. I thought it was a 'move the goalposts' type of definition for YEC's to weedle around in debate.

In fact rapid mountain formation has been show when one looks at recumbent folds in the strata contained with in the geological column preserved in some of the mountains.

The strata was still soft from being recently deposited by the flood, which allowed it to fold instead of SNAP, CRACKLE and POP..which would have happened if the rock was billions of years old and already hard.

Happened very often back then. So don't say no biblical justification.

People are "kinds". There are no races. God Bless.

You truly know nothing about physics, geology, engineering, biology and chemistry.

Did you attend a school? Asleep in class?

I mean how can you be so vacant?

It is obvious you are just repeating some nonsense you received in Sunday School or some such.

It's good bye (not by).

By your posts I assume you are very young and have not finished school yet. You might do better to verse yourself in the basics before you spend time posting scientific nonsense you don't yet (if ever) have the ability to understand why it is nonsense.

A lot of youngsters like you seem to come on here and mindlessly post material they don't comprehend it's silliness or even the basic concepts which it is attacking.

Concentrate on your schooling and learn, then make an informed decision.

Erm - you do know what happens to rocks when they are heated and under pressure, don't you?

Can we please discuss these topics with a modicum of dignity and respect? Hurling insults at each other is not only against our rules, it is very unChristlike. We are not here to bash each other over the heads with our own views and beliefs. Nor are we here to belittle those who don't agree with our views. We are all here as equals, sitting at the round table of discussion. Here, each views and beliefs are just as valid and equal as the others'. Here, we should be able to learn from each other, as brothers and sisters in Christ, to edify others, and be edified by others. If anyone here wants to belittle others, hurl insults, or use this fora as a bully-pulpit or lectern, you are on the wrong website.

So please, let's discuss our differences with an honest attitude to be helpful to others, a willingness to learn from others, and the love of Christ towards each other.

It always amuses me when people - who insist on a literal interpetation of the bible - will go to great lenghts inventing stuff like; hyper evolution withing "kinds" after the flood, or super fast mountain building and continental drift after the flood. These notions are neither supported by scientific evidence NOR SCRIPTURE!

OUCH. I think my irony meter was just overloaded.
