No I don't. I simply want an answer to my question:So you disagree with the OP, and you want me to sort it out?
I'm sure He didn't leave the cheetahs out.If god magicked -- miracled-- the genetic diversity in the rest of the animal world, can you explain me why he left the cheetahs out?
For a reason which is entirely sufficient to God. If you're going to accept christian theology for the sake of argument, you need to understand that the God they are proposing is all-knowing and all-powerful and works in many mysterious ways. It doesn't matter how stupid it may seem to us, "God works in mysterious ways" or "For a reason which is entirely sufficient to God" is always a good enough (albeit intellectually unfulfilling) answer.No I don't. I simply want an answer to my question:

Simply forgotten? Tired? Does god hate cheetahs? Any other option?
Noah saved an eco system not the whole bio sphere. The bible is short on vocabulary. They did not have all the descript words to use compared to us today.The only sensible conclusion is that the story of Noah is not true.
Maybe it's metaphorical or maybe it's just myth.
Nope, you failed. The unclean mammals are still much larger than the the clean mammals in number. You failed.I was challenging your "small subset" claim. Successfully, I might add.
Please, you were incredibly wrong. Even 14 is an extreme bottleneck that would more than likely have killed off the line. You were clearly in error since only 2 would mean sure extinction.You should be more careful in your claims as related to the bible is the point.

Yes, they are. The "clean animals" are pretty much limited to hoofed ungulates ruminants. They are a small part of even just the ungulates, much less of all mammals as a class:No, they're not "much larger". Try again.
When all else fails fall back on magic.God had a plan, and the plan worked.

Yes, but the groups that were not twos was a relatively small one. And we also know that there was no worldwide flood. There would have been massive evidence of over five miles of water entering and leaving the Earth.We could argue about 'much' all day long. The bottom line is that folks should be aware that all animals on the ark were not sets of two. Lots of Christians even make that mistake.

Wrong again. A belief in the Flood can only be based upon faith based views. There is no scientific evidence that supports itNo, you believe there was no worldwide flood. You're still holding to faith-based views.

In fact you can't even explain this:

What's to explain? Erosion is a mighty powerful force.
Err... How would a singular flood erode such a winding channel?
And your answer for why cheetahs have such bizarrely low genetic diversity... Is it really just "God did it"?
That is not an explanation.What's to explain? Erosion is a mighty powerful force.
That is not an explanation.
As I said, no Flood advocate can explain that structure. And that is only one of the many many pieces of evidence that tell us a worldwide flood never happened.
