No floaties in the gene pool until after the Fall.Ah, so you have nothing then.
A population or genetic bottleneck is an observable, in the genetic variation of a group, event. Remember, when you do not understand a word or terminology Google is your friend.
There was no "genetic bottleneck" created by the Flood.
The gene pool back then was much purer than it is now, so "interbreeding" would not have been a problem back then.
Genesis 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
But retconning those back to Adam's generation is what we call uniformitarianism, which leads to faulty interpretation of Scripture (and reality).We can observe annual snow layers forming today. With trees we can observe the formation of annual tree rings.
is there any Bible contradictions that I can help you with?
You apparently have this idea all packaged up like it's a done deal..
Maybe you should let out some of your frustrations?

If you think you're going to intimidate me into reading the Roger's Commission Report, you're wrong.
water can cut through steel, etc.
I find it hard to believe faster water can't cut through granite, limestone etc.
It is highly probable at least some of the gullies found in the world were the product of underwater slurry erosion "turbitity currents." While there was over 300 days of water.
Here's what the e-science bible says:It does not matter how "pure" the gene pool was. Genetic bottlenecks are determined by measuring genetic diversity and rates of mutation.
Now that I've looked it up, and gotten the [allegedly] proper definition -- I agree that a population bottleneck occurred as a result of the Flood.A population bottleneck is a sharp reduction in size of a population due to environmental stochastic events (such as earthquakes, floods, fires, or droughts) or human activities.
I don't invent "thousands of miracles to cover a supposed event," chief.No, it leads to a correct interpretation of scripture, that much of it is simply a fairy tale, and of course reality.
See when all of your ideas form a coherent whole you can be pretty sure that you are on the right track to describing reality.
When you have to invent thousands of miracles to cover a supposed event then you should know that you are in La la land.
give him a break, I mean you guys rarely if every read any links I post.
Are you saying that God created a population bottleneck in Genesis 1?Again that makes your claim even harder to defend.
Here's what the e-science bible says:

So what's the problem?
You guys make it sound like a "genetic bottleneck" (whatever that is), should disprove the Flood, when your bible says it is a result of the Flood.
To be honest, I don't think you guys know what it is.
I could be wrong though.
Nothing on earth can make an atheist out of me -- especially after reading these posts over the years.Yeah, don't listen to them, AV1611VET, they're just trying to stop you making a fool of yourself.
Are you saying that God created a population bottleneck in Genesis 1?
Is that what you want me to believe?
After all, if 8 people in Noah's time constitute a population bottleneck, then what do 2 people in Genesis 1 constitute?
Don't tell me the Flood couldn't have been possible because of 8 people being left, or I'll point out that the Creation happened with only 2 people starting out.

What are you saying here?A genetic bottleneck leaves evidence in the genome of a population.
{snip}
A species history can often be read in its genes. No evidence for a recent extreme bottleneck for all animals means there was no flood.
Then keep looking.They are both highly improbable events and they would be observable in the genes of the people of the world as a whole.
I disagree.Accepting evolution does not make someone an atheist ...
