So it was a typo. We all make them on occasion. What is your response to 0.1% relative to my calculations.

I've lowered the bar considerably for you from the original website. Why do you want to move on so quickly without countering my skewed calculations which are all in your favor? (Correction in typo = 0.1%)

Jar, my calculations are not based on straight geometric population growth. I'm sure you are aware of that. Why do you try to argue otherwise? Who's wasting bandwidth? They are based on a low average basis which allows for periods of lower growth. Plus I'm giving you all a 60000 year head start for good measure! Have you forgotten that already?

DA writes: That it is sufficient, with our modern methods, to support about six billion people, some of them on the brink of starvation. We hit 1 billion by 1200 which increased fourfold in just 6 centuries when the industrial revolution got underway. How do you account for 1 billion to 4 billion before modern methods if modern methods is what enabled the larger populations. It appears that it allegedly took 19000 years to go from whatever the population was during ICE to just 1 billion by 1200 AD. It seems logical that 3 couples capabable of offspring after the flood 4500 years ago would fit the model better than a 20000 year model of continuous human propagation. Likely if you count out the flood the planet could have sustained a much larger population 10 or 12 thousand years ago than a few million and the population should have escalated much earlier in human history.

I didn't do the math myself. I went by the online population calculator. I see that was too simplistic to get real numbers. I got the 1200 from your previous message not realizing what you were doing there.
It does however appear problematic for evolutionists that factoring the Malthusian factor and all we only reached 300 million from ICE by 1200 AD (around 20000 years). Imo the flood model would explain that low number given that the number trippled in just 600 years from 1200AD to 1800AD before modern methodology according to the experts.

Applying your numbers beginning -1000 we come up with the following for the Biblical flood model beginning -2500.
-2500 =8 (population) (lifespan being 200-400 for the earlier generations which would factor more children per parent)-1000 50,000,000 -500 100,000,000 1 200,000,000+ 1000 310,000,000 1750 791,000,000 1800 978,000,000 1850 1,262,000,000 1965 3,334,874,000 2000 6,070,581,000 Note the constant increase all the way up the scale. I would assume there would have been at least a half million population around -20000 Factoring in everything your chart only allows for 5 million from whatever the population was during ICE to -8000. That's 10000 years, about the same timespan that it took to go from 5 million to over a billion when the industrial revolution began to weigh in. My conclusion is that the Biblical flood model better suits the population data. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

The numbers are basically Modulous's. I assume the items you mention are factored in the figures. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

Having not had time to read the whole thread I'm not aware as to whether the Cell & Brain complexity evidence has been debated and if the following items have been discussed relative to it.
9. Design in Living Systems...A living cell is so awesomely complex that its interdependent components stagger the imagination and defy evolutionary explanations. A minimal cell contains over 60,000 proteins of 100 different configurations.16 The chance of this assemblage occurring by chance is 1 in 10 4,478,296 .17 10. Design in the Human Brain...The human brain is the most complicated structure in the known universe.18 It contains over 100 billion cells, each with over 50,000 neuron connections to other brain cells.19 This structure receives over 100 million separate signals from the total human body every second. If we learned something new every second of our lives, it would take three million years to exhaust the capacity of the human brain. 20 In addition to conscious thought, people can actually reason, anticipate consequences, and devise plans - all without knowing they are doing so.21 http://www.creationevidence.org/...dencefor/evidencefor.html BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

Since my last message and evidence link I see nothing but responses pertaining to bashing creationism/creationists and nothing directly addressing the cited evidence for creationism in the link. Admittedly I am not in the position to debate the science of the links pertaining to cells and the brain, but I figured folks here who are able might have some comments of significance to refute the claims of the statements if indeed they were able.
Anyhow with the thread winding down it's likely just as well. In summary, there have been discussed some of the evidences we creationists consider to be worthy of citing but given the unknowns like pre-flood climatology, atmospheric properties and such we creationists just have to say much is unknown. We don't claim to know nearly all evolutionists are assuming to be factual relative to tens of thousands, millions and billions of years ago. Evolutionists in responses to me in this thread relative to the population debate are essentially saying we don't know either as per Malthusian irregularities along the way yet they claim to be debating with ever so much authority when they make their assertions about how things allegedly were in eons past. Much of the credibility of the Biblical model lies in corroborating data like the fulfilled prophecies, the Exodus crossing reseach, history, interpretation of the observed, but to them it's all whistling in the wind and they have no interest in any of it since much of it is not directly related to science itself. Creationists like myself see much of this as supportive to the Biblical record so we begin with that as our model and debate falsification attempts. Imo, the greatest debate of all boils down to dating methodology. Our argument is somewhat like Malthusian except that instead of unknows about population survival capabilities etc it's about unknow conditions preflood, when the Biblical flood model is applied. Jar denies there is such a thing as flood or Biblical model, but that's as foolish as if we were to try to deny the models evolutionists use for arguing their POV. The Biblical and flood model has no resemblence whatsoever to the secularist evolutionist POV yet they insist that our evidences must be based on their model. It just ainta gona work thataway if we are to have real fair and balanced evo-creo debate here. W can't debate the Biblical model exclusive of the book itself and the evidences observed relative to the supernatural aspects of it. That is not to say the Bible itself is evidence. No way! It's what we see as a credible model from which to base our research so as to either verify or falsify the model. Admittedly I got careless in the earlier segment of the population arguments in that the first link was too ambiguous as to exactly how the math was done and the online calculator which I applied was too simplistic. I endeavored to rectify that in the latter messages which appeared to lend some credibility to my POV.......IMO. Edited by Buzsaw, : clarify wording BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.
