God couldn't clean up His mess for sanitary and safety reasons?

Did He expect Noah and his sons to "replenish the earth" by walking through layers and layers of quicksand, mud, filth, and decayed plants and animals?
You must first show that God even exists.

I don't understand what you're saying.

God ordered the waters to etch meandering rivers into the surface of the earth, and the waters did so as they hastened on to their removal point.

Psalm 104:8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.

God didn't let nature do anything, as nature would have taken too long.
So now you need to show that all meandering rivers converge on a single point.

Basically your age old spiel of you adding to the Bible to make God out to be something he can not be: a deceiver.

Nice.

Next you'll say Egypt and China predated the Flood too, won't you?
Oldest Egyptian texts- 3200 bce.
Oldest distinctly Yellow valley ceramics- 6500 bce
Supposed "flood" date- 2350 bce.

There are no pyramids in Antarctica.
Looks like SNOPES agrees.

I guess there were no pyramids built in Antarctica.

These kinds of stories must come out IN SPITE OF science, not WITH RESPECT TO science.

And I'll be glad to admit it.

Unlike those who like to bring up the Crusades, the Inquisition, and the Witch hunt; but don't have the integrity (or knowledge) to admit those were done IN SPITE OF the Bible.

Why does it have to be important to you that these stories exist IN SPITE OF science?

ETA: No, ignore me. I missed the bottom half.

No, I don't.

Even if you treat the Bible like a Humpty-Dumpty novel, can't you put two and two together and understand this?

You don't have to agree with It, but can't you at least understand what it is you're disagreeing with?

Or is that too much to expect?

And why is that?

Are you familiar with etching as an art?

And what do you add to God's creation to make Him out a deceiver?

That is, besides billion of years of time, macroevolution, and a slew of anachronisms like Egypt and China before the Flood?

I add nothing since I look at God's actual creation. You know... the thing He ACTUALLY MADE.

That door swings both ways, chief.

Believe me, it does.

My eyes have been opened to my old beliefs. There ain't no goin' back. (Thanks for the enlightenment various CF posters.)

Kinda ironic that people who jettison the Bible from their lives sigh and cry about others adding to It, isn't it?

The Bible has its place and its uses, but it does not compare to God's actual creation of the world and the universe and the record He put into it.

I do jettison the idea that the Bible is somehow more important than God's own creation.

"He" put into it?

I don't think so.

It took a shrewdness of scientists decades to mess the Bible up that bad.
