Creationists: can you explain post-Flood repopulation?

[Subduction Zone]

I have 318 times more posts than you, and you say this?

Care to back it up?

Yes, and over 90% of them are simply counting posts. No one that knows you is impressed with your post count AV. At best all you have shown is that you are wrong more than any else at this site.

I'll tell you what, SZ, you post one of my "faulty beliefs" you say I won't even try to defend, and I'll qv you to where I did try to defend it.

How's that?

In fact, I'll make it easy on you.

Just say something you think I said that I've never defended, and I'll qv otherwise.

Fair enough?

No thanks. All that your qv would be is another error at best. Why should I bother?

Then you may want to reconsider your statement.

Please don't tell me I don't defend my beliefs, faulty or otherwise, or I'll show you differently.

Too late, you already refused to defend your beliefs here:

At least that is how a reasonable person would read that post.

BMOC here doesn't realize I have 318 times more posts than he does, and he doesn't realize whittling it down to 10% still means I have 32 times his posts.

What beliefs?

Flood geology can take a hike.

What's there to defend?

I agree. Let's just stick with the facts. No evidence means no flood. Thank you very much AV.

This is THUNDERDOME post count doesn't matter.

Unless embedded in that 10%, I have attempted to defend what he called my "faulty beliefs".

QV please:

There's a goofy site that has me "apparently believing" the following; and I want to set the record straight here:

1. At one point everyone in the world spoke English.

This is correct.

2. That the mention of unicorns, dragons and behemoths in the Bible poses a problem for evolution.

It poses a problem for evolutionists.

3. Cratering was the result of a battle between angels and demons.

This is correct.

4. Unicorns were aboard Noah's ark and gave birth to different species of animals.

This is correct; but they gave birth after they left the Ark.

5. Leprechauns exist as a manifestation of demons.

This is correct.

6. The Earth was the first planet in existence.

This is correct.

7. Peer reviewed articles on evolution should be disregarded because they weren't reviewed by Jesus.

I don't know where this comes from.

8. Human beings are not Homo sapiens.

This is somewhat correct. I claim I refuse to accept that I am a Homo sapiens. However I acknowledge that Homo sapiens is just a term on paper, and I respect the right of others to label themselves as such.

9. Nero persecuted Christians for reversing the Earth's poles.

That was a joke; as was my Noah's Ark being a submarine thread.

10. Pangaea was actually Eden.

This is correct.

11. The three main rock types are "indigenous, megamorphic, and sentimental."

That was a joke.

12. Noah lived in present-day New Jersey.

That is correct.

13. That the dictionary is wrong in defining Christianity as a religion.

I may have said that at one time, but I've since softened up on that. I claim that, just as weight occurs when gravity is resisted, religion occurs when Truth is resisted.

14. Religious wars never occurred.

I don't remember saying that.

15. "Evolution teaches a monkey gave birth to the first human."

This is correct.

16. Atheism is a polytheistic religion.

This is correct.

17. Strong's Concordance is "a tool of Satan."

This is correct.

18. People should be proud of their own ignorance.

This is correct.

19. Science is unreliable because of new discoveries.

This is correct.

20. Anything that contradicts the Bible is wrong by default, including real life.

This is correct.

Calculating the actual doubling time and growth rate since the Flood when the population grew from 6 people (Noah’s 3 sons and their 3 wives) to 7.1 billion people in 4,500 years, we get an average doubling time of 149 years and an average annual percentage growth rate of 0.465%.

A slight increase in the annual growth rate has a significant impact on the population when the number of years of growth is large. If we increase the average annual percentage growth rate slightly from 0.465% to 0.50%, then those six people would grow to over 33 billion in 4500 years. Therefore it is completely feasible for Noah’s family to grow to 7 billion in 4500 years at an average annual growth rate of less than ½%. This annual growth rate, 0.465%, is less than half of the average annual percentage growth rate of 1.19% from 1999 to 2012, when the population grew from 6 billion to 7 billion in 13 years.

Thus the known facts of population growth fit the Biblical chronology very well. Population growth mathematics clearly supports the Biblical record.

Weren't you just telling me how silly it was to think that there would only be 24 people after 300 years?

With the population growth rate and doubling time that you have given, at 390 years after the Flood, there would be 36 people on the planet.

Year 1 = 8 people (only 6 of which are reproducing
Year 149 = 12 people
Year 298 = 24 people
Year 390 = 36 people (Time of Tower of Babel)
Year 447 = 48 people

Who's feeling silly now? No offense intended of course.

i have not done an analysis of your posts. It could even be significantly more than 90%. Since you tend to make about as many posts as I do and you have been here about five to even ten times as long as I have that actually works for you. At least you are not wrong in your counting posts. It only means that you have been wrong less often than your post count indicates.

For you a high post count is a liability, not an asset.

Not at all. Many from other nations left Egypt with the Israelites.

Do you have a source for this claim?

 

[AV1611VET]

You are correct. I made an error. I did mean standard geology.

Hey, look how easy that was! I made a mistake. I owned up to it. It no longer matters.

Some mistakes are easier to own up to than others, aren't they?

That's science propaganda.

Big companies make money selling prophylactics.

You want the best s_x education one can get?

1. Teach that having s_x outside of marriage is a sin.
2. Learn to, as our greatest First Lady said, JUST SAY NO.

Looks like its time to repost this little graphic.

Doesn't the bible belt have the highest rate of teen pregnancies in the USA?

Yep. See above graphic.
