would you have an example? Dont the fundies believe that the flood occured 4500 BCE?
ABE - retract that. The flood was supposed to be around 2250 BCE. I had my bullshit creationist claims mixed up. Edited by Butterflytyrant, : No reason given.

What if they get married? Polygamy or polyandre don't really describe it.

Butterflytyrant asks:
quote: Well, you've seen the ones about documentary evidence, fossil records, etc. Here are a couple more: It's topologically impossible. 97% of all water on earth is in the ocean and yet, we still have dry land. There isn't enough water on the planet to flood it. If there were, it would already be flooded. It doesn't matter how little above sea level the highest point above sea level is. The fact that it is above sea level means there isn't enough water to flood it for if there were, it would be below sea level. The physical existence of dry land means there isn't enough water to flood the planet. If the claim that the water was stored in the "vapor canopy" is brought forward, point out that in order to store enough water as vapor would require the atmosphere to be heated to well over 900 C in order to keep the water in a gaseous state and not precipitate out. The surface of the planet would be sterilized. If the claim that the "fountains of the deep" is brought forward, point out that in order to bring that much water from underground to the surface, the kinetic energy of all that water rushing forward will superheat it and again, the surface of the planet would be sterilized. If the claim that the topological features of the earth were altered during the flood, that the continents split apart and the mountains rose up because of the flood, point out that the biblical story puts all that happening in less than a year. The kinetic energy required to split the continents and raise the mountains would superheat the crust, liquifying it, and the surface of the planet would be sterilized.Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science.

Polyamory, although this is a general term that would describe a large number of other possible relationship configurations as well.

Rrhain, you've totally ignored what has been debated back when I was allowed in the science fora where I addressed all of this. I explained the Biblical explanation of where the water went so as not to flood the entire earth. To begin with there was a whole lot of water on the planet's surface post flood than pre-flood, most of it being in the atmosphere and sub-terrain. The Bible says that much of the watering of the earth's surface came from mist and fountains, i.e springs emerging from the earth's surface. This would have a significant cooling effect on the surface of the earth and earth's atmosphere. much of it would evaporate and fall as dew, etc.. I've pointed out in those debates that as the atmosphere warms, heat effects a higher and less dense atmosphere which would limit and stabilize the temperature on the planet. The canopy would allow for relatively even global temperature, explaining for observed tropical living things in the regions nearer to the poles etc. It is unknown what effected the climate change which caused the condensing of the atmosphere significantly enough to suddenly flood the earth. In Psalms 104 we learn that the flood caused a tectonic rising of the mountains and sinking of the valleys, i.e. "the valleys sank and the mountains rose". This implies a significantly smoother planet surface with small oceans and hills nothing as tall as our mountains. The breaking up of the fountains and subterranean water along with the raining down of much of the atmosphere would work to sink the valleys and forcing up of the hills etc, effecting the higher mountains, etc. It is known that the ocean crusts are an average of three or so miles thick whereas the continental crust has an average thickness of twenty miles or so. The Biblical explanation for this would be the break-up of the subterranean water, coupled with the weight of the falling atmospheric water. The bottom of the subterranean lakes would become part and parcel of the ocean crusts. The whole event would set off a significant amount of volcanic activity globally, thus adding to the uplift and creation of mountains, etc. These are some examples of where the water came from and ended up. Both camps, yours and mine would agree that there has, in the past been significant meteor activity which could have (I say could have) effected the tilt and/or orbit of planet earth, so as to set off the global flood. Corroborating all of the above would imply a whole lot less water needful to flood the entire planet than had the high mountains existed before the flood. As well, it would answer you question as to where all of the wheres and why-fores of what caused the flood, where the water came from and where it ended up. The only thing Jehovah would have need to do was to set the timing of the meteor strike or what ever natural phenomena happened to be to coincide with the depravity of his once perfect idolatrous, promiscuous and godless people. Prophets tell us that our end times generation will become similarly corrupt and godless precluding the prophesied day of God's wrath. Thus the observable fulfillment of end-time prophecies as per the ancient prophets. ![]() BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

Buz, it's "unknown" because it didn't happen. There was never any global flood and you've never at any time been able to substantiate that there was.

To begin with there was a whole lot of water on the planet's surface post flood than pre-flood, most of it being in the atmosphere and sub-terrain. How much in the atmosphere, Buz? You mention "the weight of the falling water." If there were only 100 inches of precipitable water in young Noah's sky, instead of the inch we have now, how warm would the atmosphere have necessarily been to keep it there as vapor? As you have recently shown that you have no inkling what "superheated steam" even means, I will wager that you can't even guess. 100 inches isn't even six cubits, Buz. Not much weight......"The Christian church, in its attitude toward science, shows the mind of a more or less enlightened man of the Thirteenth Century. It no longer believes that the earth is flat, but it is still convinced that prayer can cure after medicine fails." H L Mencken

Hi guys,
This thread is not for debate, hence the thread title: Quick Questions, Short Answers - No Debate. If you'd like to discuss issues in depth could you find an appropriate thread, or propose a new one over at Proposed New Topics?

Hi Rrhain - I hid the text of your message, you can still view that text by clicking peek. Perhaps you can find a thread in Free For All to discuss the flood with Buzsaw. --Admin
Buzsaw responds to me:
quote: I can't respond to posts I haven't seen. It isn't "ignoring" when I haven't read it.
quote: Um, you do understandt that this is the definition of a "flood," yes? The whole point of a "flood" is that there is more water than there normally is.
quote: What part of "super-heating" are you having trouble with? In order to store all that water in the atmosphere would require the temperature and pressure of the atmosphere to exceed that of Venus. The planet would be sterilized. To have all that water burst forth from the ground would liquify the crust from the heat and again, the planet would be sterilized.
quote: Incorrect. It would have a significant heating effect.
quote: If it evaporates, it goes back into the atmosphere which is already super-saturated. A simple calculation shows that it requires on the order of 10^9 cubic miles of additional water in order to flood the earth due to the fact that Mt. Everest is approximately five miles above sea level. Where is this water? It isn't in the atmosphere. If all the water in the atmosphere were to precipitate out, we'd only get about an inch of water globally instead of the five mile depth we need and on top of that, it would immediately rush into the ocean and not last for a year.
quote: Incorrect. It has a tighter, more dense atmosphere. It's the only way to keep the water in suspension. If it were to cool or thin, it would immediately precipitate out.
quote: Given that we know the fluid dynamics (including the thermodynamics) that would be required to suspend such water in an atmosphere, this is incorrect. We know that it never happened.
quote: The kinetic energy of which would superheat the crust, liquifying it, and sterilizing the planet.
quote: None of which are physically possible. Ergo, they didn't happen.
quote: Incorrect. There is no evidence of such beyond the creation of the moon which was such a massive collision that had there been any life, it would have been sterilized in the impact since it was an object approximately the size of Mars that struck the Earth. Life post-dates the formation of the moon, so that had nothing to do with it. Edited by Admin, : Hide lengthy answer in a short answer thread.Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science.

So, my wife is on a night shift so I can put in some Xbox time but, what should I play?
I've narrowed it down to Ultimate MvC 3 or Dark Souls.The above ontological example models the zero premise to BB theory. It does so by applying the relative uniformity assumption that the alleged zero event eventually ontologically progressed from the compressed alleged sub-microscopic chaos to bloom/expand into all of the present observable order, more than it models the Biblical record evidence for the existence of Jehovah, the maximal Biblical god designer. -Attributed to Buzsaw Message 53 The explain to them any scientific investigation that explains the existence of things qualifies as science and as an explanation-Attributed to Dawn Bertot Message 286 Does a query (thats a question Stile) that uses this physical reality, to look for an answer to its existence and properties become theoretical, considering its deductive conclusions are based against objective verifiable realities.-Attributed to Dawn Bertot Message 134
