Correct.After the flood, we start with a population of 8, correct?
Correct.Earth now has a population of 7 billion people.
"Fantasy" aside -- 2 people: named Adam and Eve.I'm curious to see the curve of population growth on the creation fantasy model.
As I said before, I calculated the dates myself once, and came within a couple of hundred years of Ussher's dating; so I use Ussher's dating, since the exact year is not an issue when dealing with Big Bang vs. Creationism.
It should be ... from your POV.That's true enough.
Creationism is wrong no matter what date is used.
It should be ... from your POV.
Here is a graph showing the people that were born after the flood. The pattern that emerges is stark and clear. The lifespans of all those born after the split,(or change in nature) are amazingly shorter!!
The evidence is that the recorded lifespans in the bible can be graphed to show WHEN this change started.
Number 4 represents Peleg, and 5 Reu, Terah Serug, etc.
One site estimates that Peleg was born in 2247 BC..
"Peleg was certainly no exception. He was born 1757 years after creation (2247 BC1). He died 209 years later (Genesis 11:19)."

George Dodwell (astronomer who studied scores of dated data points of history) placed the date of the event where the earth was altered at 2345 BC.
"In this work, which has taken many years to complete, it is shown that the Ancient and Mediaeval Observations of the Obliquity of the Ecliptic (which is a measure of the Inclination of the Earth's Axis away from the perpendicular to its orbit), differ from the regular curve, corresponding to Newcomb's internationally accepted Formula, by an amount increasingly greater the farther we go back into antiquity.
Further, these differences reach a unique maximum in the year 2345 B.C. "

By all of his data, we also arrive in the days of Peleg!!
Something happened in that time that really changed everything.
As many may know, I call that event the Split.
Nations don't go to war over fairy tales.Yes, there are some people who do cling to fairy tales.
When did nations go to war over creationism?
Even if his claim were true, if nations have not gone to war over creationism the claim is not relevant to a discussion of creationism.Though creationism is a fairy tale AV's claim was much broader than just that.
Helps you have a case of some sort that is semi cohesive.Helps me? Helps me what?

This pile looks like it may have taken months to form.The ice they are taking cores from formed AFTER the flood in the recent past.[/QUOT
Then why does it look like it's been built through regular annual growth?
Snow making machine. If the fountains of the deep shot up water and some cooling agent in some area of the world...I guess it woulld be like super-massive snow making machines!
I never asserted that creationism was a fairy tale. A fairy tale presumably must have fairies, and must also presumably be a single tale.When was creationism a fairy tale?

Only to the uneducated.

And only the uneducated would make such a claim.
The hundreds of thousands of years of ice are marked by annual differences in temperature. And marker beds of volcanic eruptions that allow those layers to be dated.
What do you have that supports your fairy tale? If you have nothing but a moldy old book written by men that does not even mention polar ice you have nothing.
The billions part is easy. That is recent history!After the flood, we start with a population of 8, correct?
Earth now has a population of 7 billion people.

The guy who wrote that was a Christian. He accepted Scripture. Your personal incredulity is noted.I notice a similar pattern in Lord of the Rings. I call the event "bollocks."
