Neither is "string theory".
If 'magic' is the only choice left, then magic becomes rational.
Great. Shall we start with Y-chromosome haplogroup Q? How do you account for its history and considerable range?
Nope on both accounts. String theory is rational, magic never is.
I don't need to.You do not seem to understand the problem that a bottleneck provides.
String theory is science's version of magic, in fact there's lot's of such magic in science.
I don't need to.
Especially if God is in control of the situation.
Magic is the only rational explanation for anything, if you follow them back far enough. Godly miracles (the fact of) are not quite 'ho hum' events, but pretty close.
You may have heard it before, but if you took it with a grain of salt, don't be surprised if it comes back on you.Are you really under the impression that I've never heard the story before?
The wives of Noah and his sons had all sorts of genetic diversity.
Well, yes, because I was receiving a quality education.You may have heard it before, but if you took it with a grain of salt
I've never heard this phrase.don't be surprised if it comes back on you.
Actually you do. You may not seem to understand it but you are once again claiming a lying god. I do not know of any Christians that accept the idea of a lying god. Most Christian would rather accept reality than go that route.I don't need to.
Especially if God is in control of the situation.
That's why I included the term "epoch".
Are the mountains and rivers now in disobedience to God's commands? Do they insist on running downstream, in defiance of the Lord's command to run up? Do the mountains now rise and point to the heavens rather than precipice down just as steeply toward the hells?But what if the mountains in question weren't formed by plates coming into contact with each other?
Psalm 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
If you read the orogenic passages in the Bible, you'll readily see that mountains and rivers existed at one time in obedience to God's commands.
No, just because you dont understand it doesnt mean its magic. Its a description of physical reality, nothing more, nothing less.
Sorry but this doesn't make any sense. Changing the name for the block of time doesn't change the fact that you indicated sudden and destructive. THAT'S what I'm focusing on.
Not nearly enough Noah's sons all had the same mother and father, I do believe. So you only have the genetic diversity of two people. Add in the wives and at the most you have that of five people. The population of humans may have been in the low thousands at one point. No less.
Kenny, that was not a question. You made a statement which refuted the flood story and I agreed with you.
But if you choose "hills" it makes the story fail. And of course genetics tells us that there never was the population bottleneck that the Flood would have created. Why is reality so hard to accept?
