Yes I am! Thank you for showing me the light!

I am really interested in the continuance of your incredible theory. I can't believe I was fooled by all those old earth idiots. Your ideas aren't delusional, inside I've always known, but I guess I've been brainwashed by everything everyone has always told me. You truly are a genius dad, and all the others on this forum are too stupid to see it!!!
I don't know about all that, but you might want to brush up on your arguements if you expect them to last 1/2 a round!

No, to be honest, I'm done discussing about this, and in general, discussing anything with dad. Basically, because discussing something is not possible with him! So why do the effort? Let him live in his own little world, maybe he's happy this way? I sure know I'm happy knowing I don't have to do all this useless effort anymore to try and make a delusional idiot see reason.

Really, with the kind of lame half baked, half forgotten arguements you can bring to bear!

Right, --sore loser. I love it.

Come now. Your avatar is one the greatest straight men in the history of comedy and you gave me a straight line I just couldn't pass up. What did you expect?

I used to assume there was dinos in the ark.

I now lean to land dinos being not on the ark, but am not sure. I think the reason many try to get them in the ark is flood geology, where too much credit is given to the effects of the flood.
Your thoughts about the Dinos are interesting, and I had not considered it before.

I would say it is highly likely that extinction was forced on several species based on present human actions.

Any animal which was dangerous or contained useful materials would be in great danger of extinction.

The idea that many of the large "dangerous" animals were extinct is a logical conclusion.

If the animals laid eggs, it would be an easy ( and nutritious ) process.

The only problem I have with your idea is that it conflicts with the purpose of the garden of Eden.

What was the point of protecting the garden of Eden from man kinds interference if it was not to preserve the original animal species for future distribution after the flood.

Animals which were outside the garden of Eden would degenerate by mutation into a less desirable form and would produce a fossil record different from the original species taken in the ark.

I ran over this kind of quick as I assumed you are very familiar with the Bible creation story.

If you need specif referenced please indicated the statement in question.

No problem. Have you thought about hiring an interpreter? He could tell us when you are trying to be funny!

So far so good.

The only problem I have with your idea is that it conflicts with the purpose of the garden of Eden.

Because the universe was still merged, and if fallen man got back in and ate of the tree of life, he would have sort of reverse flipped the death switch, and lived forever in a sinful state!

Animals which were outside the garden of Eden would degenerate by mutation into a less desirable form and would produce a fossil record different from the original species taken in the ark.
Unless there were no animals outside of Eden! (Save some trilobites and some creatures busy preparing the earth for our eventual spread, that went into high gear all of a sudden with the fall)

So did I, but I think I covered the bases.

Oh No!

Then God wouldn't be able to torture his beloved greatest creations for all eternity in a prision made of hellfire and brimstone, just because Adam disobeyed him once!

Good thing God caught that one..

Oh by the way, Denise Richards.

Actually, He wanted man in a good state for eternity. We had to go our own way for awhile, like a prodigal son. He couldn't lock us in that bad state as is, or there would be no hope. Instead, He came down and died for us, and led the way home. Hell is many levels, and not all lake of fire. I think of it like a hospital. Some rooms are for more serious cases. One day, they may get well, and be released.

True. Not that there was ever any worry there.

Dad, who built the pyramids and when did they do it and how did the Methuselah tree survive the flood? Also, there's evidence of agriculture around 7000 B.C. meaning civilizations have been around well before your supposed time frame of the age of Earth (HERE)
