Does The Flood Add up?

You cannot compare Noah's ark with such information which are yet to be verified. Noah's ark will one day be verified and authenticated. Till then, we cannot prejudge anything.

eh? You don't see the problem with this statement?

But you know that an argument to the future is no argument at all? It's a bit bizarre to tell people not to prejudge and then in the previous sentence talk about how the ark will be verified!!This message has been edited by Charles Knight, 30-Apr-2006 07:04 PM

em...yes? I read it - it just says "I have an argument that I might be able to present in the future but at this present moment, I have nil, nothing,zippo!"

Who did they breed with?Did they take wives on the ark?

Randy I was reading your old thread here:http://EvC Forum: Biogeography falsifies the worldwide flood. -->EvC Forum: Biogeography falsifies the worldwide flood.Anyone who hasn't read that thread should.I don't mean to be cruel to anyone but if you can get through the whole thread without bursting out laughing you are a better person than me. The conversation that Randy has with the Golfer is pure comedy gold. Edited by CK, : added "person".

We should draw up a table for future reference.So far we have2 Horses - 4,380 gallons of drinking water and 11,000 pounds of hay.Anyone have any handy figures for any other animals?

What's a Kind?I've never seen an explanation that makes any sense, what's is yours?

Why do we even HAVE A flood? why doesn't god just *poof* all the evilinessenessness and evil people out of the way?

I need to goto bed after some good Alan Moore news but I have an idea that we can put into practice tomorrow.

Let me get this straight - the earth is about 4,500 years old and we had time for a flood and then some time after the continents split?Honestly?

Yes, there is really no problem with the idea that human populations grew very quickly. A little basic math can show how many in a short time

Great - let's see it - turn 8 people into 4 billion in 4,500 years.

Oh it can be done. Fiddle with it yourself a little. Maybe I'll get to it later.

Why should I answer it ? It just appears to be another in a long line of "it's simple if you just handwave and don't actually answer the question" answers from you.If you want to suggest it's possible YOU work out the answer.

Let's see how much of this I get -about 4,500 years ago Noah built an ark. He then collected all of the kinds that needed to go on the ark. Some of those kinds (20,000 or so is the number generally given) were dinosaurs but it was thought those were eggs. He also was able to pack all the food needed for all the kinds and also he wasn't worried about the vastly different climates and habits of those animals as they were far more hardy than modern animals. Then over the course of about a year Noah and 7 others were able to care for all 20,000 of those animals. Noah wasn't that worried about waste as he had a pump that he managed to construct 1000s of years before it was invented. (He also wasn't bothered about breathing steam or the fact that the oceans would have boiled off but I disgress) Then all the animals got off the ark and we had hyper-evolution for the next 4000 years to leave us with the wildlife we see today. At the same time the 8 people on the ark over a period of 4000 or so years turned into 4 billion people.THEN the continents separated...... Edited by CK, : No reason given.

I've seen it - it's not very descriptive

In any case my assumptions are based on God's revelations and nothing so flimsy as a scientific theory.

So why do you keep need to be reminded that you are wasting your time and that of everyone else in the Science forum. Do you have a specific learning difficulty? I struggle to understand why you are unable to grasp what discussion are about in the science forums?
