Empty question, it asked nothing. If you want an answer, you'll have to ask a complete question.

If it helps, I'm claiming what I very clearly claimed.Be happy to clear up any confusion.


Kenny, that was not a question. You made a statement which refuted the flood story and I agreed with you.

The problem with the flood story is that it is refuted from so many different approaches and the support for it is practically non-existent.

Now comes one of my favorite parts of the video.

This land bridge junk.

First of all, notice how Mr. Nye puts up a map of the earth as it exists today?

That is, it has seven continents.

Then, with this map up, he talks about the perplexity of kangaroos getting to Australia.

This is science in action, folks ... stooping to fake maps to make it look like the task was too hard.

In actuality, the earth was still one big supercontinent at the time.

It was broken up in Genesis 10, not Genesis 9.

Noah could have walked to Australia, without getting his feet wet.

In fact, he could have walked to any land point on earth without even seeing the ocean (Panthalassa) on his way.
For all of man's existence those four continents have existed in almost exactly those shapes and forms. They were a bit larger during the last glacial period of our present ice age, but that is about it.

How could Noah have walked to Australia? We know how fast the continents move. It appears that you are about to make that claim that I predicted.

Sorry, but if you want to claim that the Flood really happened you need to have answers to all sorts of questions.
I'm just picking apart the video, that's all.

Ya ... fake maps, events that hadn't occurred yet, outright denial of things they don't know what they're talking about.

And to be honest, I don't even think they realize how stupid they look.

How about explosions?

Please, you should not be making that claim. If you can't support it you are in effect bearing false witness against your neighbor.

They have extremely strong evidence for their claims. You have none for yours.

That's what evolutionists say about evolution, but when we get down to the nitty gritty, I personally have seen no one here with any tangible evidence at all. They keep saying it's based on science, in order to make it sound as if it cannot be refuted, but when we dig a little deeper, we see it's based on mere opinion of what the earth is telling us.

Then we have the fact it all just sounds ridiculous from the get go, all this intricacy here and now from pretty much nowhere? Surely you can understyand why that plays a role in it's credibility. And it's all the same way with the flood. They want it gone because it's biblical and they will make it gone, one way or another. They keep saying that is not the purpose but I disagree.

Then you just do not understand the concept.

But don't worry, most creationists have to keep themselves willfully ignorant of the concept of evidence. Most are afraid of the concept.

And no, no one wants the flood to be gone. It simply did not happen. Once again, you should try to learn what is and what is not evidence.

Um ... seven.

Look at the video at 00:58.

There's even a red line drawn from the Middle East to Australia at 01:26.

That is disingenuous.

I don't understand your question.

Were his legs broken or something?

How so? He was outlining a possible route for Noah, that was all. And again, all seven continents would have been in place at the time of the Flood.

Now you appear to be disingenuous. There were oceans in the way. He could not have just walked there.

LOL

Solid aurum.

Another seven continents at 01:40.

When are you science types going to get the story straight?

Ever?
I made a minor error. So what? And I prefer seven. Some in Europe, nothing to do with "science" have a different number for their own reasons.

But the explosion idea did come from creationists. The last time I checked it was still up at Conservipedia.

So yes, it was "Solid Aurum". But of course the joke is on the creationists.

If you're going to put up a map of seven continents and ask an audience how kangaroos got to Australia from the Middle East, I don't care how much science you put forth, I'm going to tell you you're wrong.

That's what they want you to think, and apparently they're getting what they want with you.

How so? And remember my warning about calling God a liar. You don't want to make that error. All of the evidence out there tells us that the continents separated roughly 200 million years ago.

You are right. My error.

That's what they want you to think, and apparently they're getting what they want with you.

Once again you are saying that others are liars without any evidence. The evidence is out there for my claims. You know I don't make unsupported claims.
