People believe evolution because it gives the ability of getting rid of God. Also, because they believe the wisdom of men over the words of God.People do not believe in creationism because the stories are obviously metaphors and science overwhelming shows evolution and it taking billions of years... not because trees cannot go a day without sun.
No but there are photos, survivors that were there and history books by the score.
Actually, no there was no rain before the flood.
Again with the contradiction of Genesis 1 and 2. Please check previous posts. It's like saying that the Bible calls Christ a lion and a lamb so it contradicts itself.

This is an argument with no end..
Yes, however, the event I was looking for scripture or any documentation on was quoted as to happening 75 -85 million years ago.Right, which is why is it silly to ask for scripture when it comes to historical issues.
Again, this topic has been flogged to death hear on CF.Which is again, according to a metaphorical story. Back then, people did not understand that rain was created by the sun's light causing water to evaporate, which then condensed, which then fell as rain.
Genesis 2 also mentions wind, which is created by the evaporation process. No rain, no wind. Also, I can't imagine someone attempting to explain how the physics of the universe changed that prevented the Sun from evaporating water. Also, what caused wind. I guess it was all magic!
They give two contradicting accounts of the order. That's obviously important when you take both accounts to mean that God created the Earth in a literal six days. Then you turn around and call it a metaphor and the details, when they contradict, aren't important.
Genesis is a metaphor, that's where the truth of it exists. If you are going to take it literally, you run into the problem of two different orders of creation.
Simple, they road on the back of dinosaurs.
In this thread it has been shown that there were indeed examples of hummingbirds in Europe, and maybe Asia and I can even add Africa at some point in time.
It's also been shown that Genesis 7:2-3 pretty much shoots down the only two hummingbirds that the OP addressed.
Not much of a case of hummingbirds putting a dent in creationism. The only dent I see currently is Dale's pride.
Einstein presented a glimpse of the reality of God, a perspective uncommon and misunderstood by humanity, for those who could see and hear it. You defending the perspective of humanity, does nothing but obscure the glimpse and put us back 70+ years on our understanding of God. Well done.
I'll bite....
day 1. Earth and light.
day 2. Expanse
day 3. Land sea vegetation
day 4. Great lights
day 5. Fish birds
day 6. Land animals man
God has stated the order. State the contradiction (as you see it) and I will explain.
Do you have any text that back this up? I don't mean some university course that I need to attend. Just some intelligent fact that explains how you can arrive at a date like 75 to 85 million years?
You do rumealize that that is a huge amount of time previous to any recorded history, previous to any humans, previous to any written record. It is actually a number someone predicted, extrapolated, assumed or guessed. It is un testable as nobody was here to view it, nobody was there to record it and there is no possible way you can measure the time that hummingbirds morphed, evolved or hatched for the first time, with any accuracy whatsoever.
You can site the "geologic column" yet it has trees growing up through it. You can site carbon dating, yet it is only accurate to 50,000 years. You can site fossil data, yet fossils have been shown to form in 3 months in a laboratory setting. Given that we can throw out any date on a fossil's age. Given this, your 75 - 85 million years is hyperbola.

God Bless.
If the Ark was a TARDIS booth, it could have housed a trillion dinosaurs.Does anyone seriously believe there was room for dinosaurs on the Ark?
Yes, however, the event I was looking for scripture or any documentation on was quoted as to happening 75 -85 million years ago.
That's not a historical issue. That's way beyond prehistoric. It makes it a guess, at best.

I'm not going down that beaten up worn out highway of arguments.
The problem here is, you are approaching God and the story of his Son...like a lawyer - Woe, to you lawyers. Luke 11:46, Luke 11:52
- "All things come in parables"...so, if you want to say it is a metaphor, no problem.
- As for literal days...the only literal day, is "that day" (of the Lord). History is his story.
- As for different order...there is no order, but rather the unfolding revelation of Jesus Christ, in whom time does not exist. Thus, no contradiction.
Or miracles?I guess it was all magic!
