How old is the world?

Diamonds are created from coal from extreme pressure and temperature. Scientists can replicate this in a lab. Is this intelligent design?

Chemistry works when electrons and stuff interact with each other. If I add an acid to a base to create a salt, is this evidence for intelligent design? Why is it that many Creationists have no knowledge of how science works, yet feel like they know more about how to perform an experiment then scientists?

Scientists know how God does things
Creationists know the God who does it

There are numerous flood myths from many cultures, some which predate the biblical account.

Of course there are flood myths from many cultures that predate the biblical account since the Flood predates the account. The Biblical account was written by Moses, probably prior to the Exodus, in about 1450 BC. The flood occured about 1000 years prior to that writing, plenty of time for the corrupt mythologies to arise, before God moved on Moses to write the infallible accurate account that appears in Genesis.

There are at least three different authors of Genesis and it took a few hundred years to write. The Genesis flood myth came from two of these authors who based it on an earlier Babylonian myth which was likely based on the seasonal flooding of the Tigris-Euphrates river basin.

I'm curious, Floodnut, did God intend to kill pregnant women in the flood?

Nonsense. Pure speculation, as to what the bible was based on. This is your nickle and dime, two bit, typical, baseless, insulting, pagan flavored, anything and anyone but God, bible despising, condesending, darkness shrouded, slime for wisdom, presumptuous, empty, deviously devoid, doctrine one could conjure.

I take it you don't agree with him

Bahahahaha....I suppose you think Moses wrote it then?

My point is not who God used to write it, but the bit about where you say it really came from.

I remember reading about how Stylometry confirmed this.

I believe Moses might have written Genesis. I could be wrong though. I don't reallt know for sure.

Well, looking at the pentateuch, which is commonly attributed to Moses, it's clear that Genesis has a different writing style than the other four books, indicating a different author. If Moses did write Genesis, he most likely didn't write the other four.

 

[gunglepus]

If Moses did write Genesis, yeah sure

If Moses did write Genesis, he most likely didn't write the other four.

It's most likely that Moses did not write any of the bible since the first time he is mentioned in the Bible is when a "Torah of Moses" was discovered in the Temple in Josiah's time. Have you ever wondered how such a central figure in the Jewish Bible is unmentioned untill then? Apparently Moses's name and his supposed laws and teachings were not on the mind of any of the Bible writers. During the Judges period, even monotheism did not seem to be operating. In the case of David, how come he never mentions Moses in any of the psalms? How come his first wife, Michael, daughter of saul, the king of israel, had TERAPHIM (household idols) in her room?

Moses (Mohshey) is a hebrew version of the Egyptian suffix MOSE which was added to the names of many Pharohs. Ra-Mose for example.

It may be very possible that MOSE was the villian in canannite ledgends based on the attacks that the Egyptians made on Canaan around 1500 BC and he was transformed into a hero by some story tellers after 1000 years.

Hows that for some apples?

Great, I rebutt your post and the best you can come up with is a Yoda saying? How about addressing the ID of chemical reactions?
