Was Aesop's fable of the Tortois and the Hare scientific and historical? Was Aesop trying to claim that animals talk, and participate in races?

Dear Rick, I see. You disagree, but find you cannot do it Scripturally, Scientifically nor Historically. That means that you have nothing to add to the discussion. Right? Online, we call it running away. God Bless you.

No, it is a big problem. How do you get fruit trees before the sun, and how do you get any kind of terrestrial life before marine life? That doesn't follow the science.
What are you talking about? Are you still talking about science? Has what ...777 said already confused you so badly? You DON'T get that.
How to get fruit without the sun is not related to the OP. On the earth, we do not have this problem.
More obfuscation. The question I asked was addressed to you Juve and I will ask it again.
You claim science is correct with respect to the bible on the creation sequence. Please explain how flowering fruit trees on land appeared before marine life.
Why would they not?
What do you think I meant, when I said "Arab phone"?I remember an education course I took in grad school where the altering of story telling was demonstrated. Ten students were sent into the hall so they could not hear a short story that was read to the remaining students. One person was called and read the same story. From that point on the first person had to tell the next person that was called in to repeat the story, and so on. It didn't even have to go through all ten for the story to be completely different. Think about it.
Oh, please.I don't know. Racial slur?
Oh, please.
Arab Phone, Chinese Whispers, Grapevine, Telephone Game = all the same.
Ever play Chinese checkers or order an Italian sub?
Stuff like this is why I have to spend 5 minutes explaining myself every time I go to McDonald's and order Freedom fries.
They act like they never heard of them.
Now who's being racist!?You might be comfortable with your personal racist views, but don't feign ignorance when those of us who aren't, call you on it.

We have 3 Ga of marine life fossils and less than 500 Ma of terrestrial fossil life and half that for flowering plants. That's why not.

What to explain? They did not. What is wrong with that? (But, yes, plants are still created on Day 3, which is earlier than Day 5. There is no contradiction about it)
This question is similar to one someone asked before: Why is there no pig fossil before dinosaurs? The answer is simple, pig was not created at that time.
Terrestrial plants, especially flowering plants did not precede marine life, plant or animal. Not to mention without the sun. It does not follow science as you claim..
You mean pigs had not evolved at that time. However, there were mammals during the time of the dinosaurs.
I am not a botanist, so may be you know the answer of this question:
How does marine plants repopulate? Do they do that through seeds? Do they flowering (may be in a strange way)?
No. I mean pig was not "created" at that time. In general, mammals are created later than dinosaurs.
I see no problem on that in the Bible.
(I think it is, after all, quite difficult to educate a person on a new idea. You still not catching up with what I said on page 5. What we talked about above is only the FIRST step of the whole problem. But I think to you, it is already at the end of your concern.)
Can you really say that with a straight face? I bet you can't.
You do realize that the Bible was written by men, don't you?
What do you mean by created? Just popped into existence?
