Re: Flood Legends
How would a genetic bottleneck be effected, given no pre-flood genetic data was known.
I have to ask: do you even know what is meant by bottleneck? IF the flood account were factual, for EVERY LIVING ORGANISM ON EARTH, the genetics would trace back to TWO parent individuals 4350 years ago (or whatever time frame you wish to ascribe said flood to). However, that simply isn't the case, as others have repeatedly shown you. Pre-flood super-climate (whatever the hell that is) has NOTHING to do with it. The genetics of anyone pre-flood is unnecessary.
Let me explain it in terms you may understand: take your family tree. Suppose (for arguments sake only) that Noah was YOUR great grandfather. Your lineage would lead to Noah, correct? Any DNA samples would lead to Noah. All of your genetics would lead to Noah. Your children's would lead to Noah. YOUR great-grand-children would lead to Noah. THEIR great-grandchildren would lead to Noah. Such SHOULD be the case for EVERY LIVING ORGANISM ON THE PLANET had your flood happened. This is NOT the case. The lineage for EVERY LIVING ORGANISM ON EARTH should lead to two parent individuals 4350 years ago. This just is NOT the case, now is it?
Does that make it easier to understand?

Re: Genetic data
Why did you ignore what I posted about lineage and geneology? You make one argument, that gets shot down, then you move on to another and wait for that one to get shot down too? Then, when you think we've all forgotten that your initial assertion was destroyed, you go back to that one.
the planet would have been much different pre-flood.
You've never supplied any valuable evidence that this is the case, or how it was different. Any assertions to this that you have made, have been proven to be in error. The last time planet earth was much different than it is now, was during the last ice age: which was far before any alleged flood you claim happened.

You've never been to Venus, so you can't know

It wasn't the removal that made me feel as such, but the donning of said headwear at all.
