No, you refer to science as speculation because it feeds you sad ego and you need that Dunning-Kruger boost so as not to implode for being so gullible as to believe ancient middle eastern tall tales.This is why I keep referring to your terminology and charts as scientific speculation.
Of course, the process is not observable… more speculation.
Then your statement doesn't make any sense; unless you don't believe in magic either.No I dont,

I said "the interpretation of evidence."Are you serious? The evidence tells us what happened.
Dishonesty would require (2) on your list of flood arguments.
God isn't dishonest... it's just lack of understanding on our part, and where did He say He would explain everything in detail to us? That's as clear as I can make it.This makes no sense as written.
No, He will not, but don't equate our lack of understanding with Him lying.Here is a simple question: Will God lie? I say that if exists he won't.

Septuagint chronology puts the flood at about 3300 BC, which is 600 years before Egypt's Old Kingdom.So, your fake flood happened right in the middle of the Egyptian Old Kingdom, and dang it, they didn't seem to notice.

I don't know Jimmy, but Americans have done a pretty good job of it in half the time.It sounds even less convincing when you put it like that, how could the population and distinct culture of Egypt develop from scratch in 600 years.
There again, I don't know... there has to be an explanation. Good point though.Plus wiping out the entire population in a flood is a harsh lesson for mankind, yet they seem to have forgotten about the hebrew god pretty quickly!

A few more than eight... but it began with just one boatload.From a population of eight? I don't think so. I thought that you were extolling the virtues of "logic" and "evidence", I suppose if you applied those to the flood story the whole thing would come tumbling down like a house of cards.
I see a lot of evidence listed against it, but I also see a lot of evidence listed for it.There is a great explanation..... There was no worldwide flood 5500 years ago. Call it allegory, a lesson, an exaggeration of local events, but there was no worldwide flood wiping out life on Earth (except for a boatful of course).

I don't know how you can say that? Just google 'evidence of a worldwide flood.' There are numerous 'for & against' articles.There is zero data, evidence or anything else supporting a world wide flood.
I take it you're not familiar with the story of the golden calf?... yet they seem to have forgotten about the hebrew god pretty quickly!

Genesis 1 only had a population of two.From a population of eight?

Little is much when God is behind it.
White cliffs and meandering rivers.Present what you think is the best evidence for.
White cliffs and meandering rivers.
You're the one mything the point then.Or is just a myth.
Genetics can take a hike.VirOptimus said:There has never been a populataion of just two, the genetics prove it.
