'Some still living' disproves literal truth of the bible

If you want this in the accuracy and inerrancy thread, please explain why you feel the quote cannot be literally true. Also provide what literalist views you feel this statement needs to be reconciled with.If you want it in faith and belief, I still feel you need to flesh it out a bit with support for your position and not just fish.

Thread copied here from the 'Some still living' disproves literal truth of the bible thread in the Proposed New Topics forum.

EMA,When you tag items as (a), (b), (c) etc. within a quote box, please use the parentheses instead of square brackets. [b] begins the bold dBcode and messes up the quote box and the box won't appear correctly.Thanks

Rule #10: Always treat other members with respect. Argue the position, not the person. Avoid abusive, harassing and invasive behavior. Avoid needling, hectoring and goading tactics.Rule #4: Points should be supported with evidence and/or reasoned argumentation. Address rebuttals through the introduction of additional evidence or by enlarging upon the argument. Do not repeat previous points without further elaboration. Avoid bare assertions. Welcome to EvC Statman,Please address the on-topic points made in a post. Since this thread is in a science forum, evidence or reasoned argumentation is expected when rebutting a position.People can only respond to what is written in a post and don't automatically know the knowledge level, age, belief, etc. of the person they are responding to; especially from small posts. Those who have been here awhile, start to "know" more about those they debate regularly. Since you are new to the "neighborhood" please be patient as people get to know you and your debate style.Also please remember to stay on topic.Thanks
