I was going to say, we made boomerangs when I was very young and we didn't have computers
You don't know how to properly insult someone.
Recently someone posted a two-hour video of an atheist debating Kent Hovind.
The atheist started his rant describing the [human] authors of the Bible as 'ignorant.'
I disagree.
If you make a ratio of knowledge acquired to knowledge available, it's hard to call them "ignorant."
What the atheist was doing, was comparing knowledge acquired back then, with knowledge on hand now.
And that's not a fair comparison.
Let's see a scientist ... any scientist ... make a boomerang without the use of computers.
They were far from ignorant, weren't they?it's quite easy to make a boomerang without using computers. The Australian Aboriginal people did it lots, and I'm pretty sure that they didn't have computers to aid in their design.
They were far from ignorant, weren't they?
Aerodynamics.Ignorant about what?

Or maybe God opened their eyes a little.There is only one way they were able to craft a boomerang: divine revelation.
The boomerang.And your evidence for that is...?
Aero...Because...?
... nevermind.He's gonna' say ... aerodynamics. His entire worldview is circular, don't expect his logic to be linear.
-So the aborigines could have developed a simple glider? Why not an airplane? Perhaps you are conflating a design from trial and error with an actual understanding of a concept.Aero...... nevermind.
Yeah, we all know your MO.
Possibly -- as a toy; like a Frisbee.-So the aborigines could have developed a simple glider?
That level of sophistication was opened to the Wright brothers.Subduction Zone said:Why not an airplane?
I'm sure they employed as much trial and error as necessary.Subduction Zone said:Perhaps you are conflating a design from trial and error with an actual understanding of a concept.
Au contraire. Religious writings abound on this planet. Some arguably better, some arguably worse.The bible is the word of God because it couldn't have come about any other way.Man doesn't write such stuff.
You do not seem to understand. Trial and error explains their making of the boomerang than a false claim of understanding aerodynamics. Their inability to go beyond the boomerang tells us that the former is the likely answer.Possibly -- as a toy; like a Frisbee.That level of sophistication was opened to the Wright brothers.I'm sure they employed as much trial and error as necessary.
