Re: you're going to have to "Stuudy Genesis" even more than that.
More utter nonsense.
For instance, the marker for that bottleneck is there, it just has not been found yet.
Too bad quite a few examples have been fully sequenced. It's simply not there.
Maybe it is found, but science is covering it up.
Then it would be really simple for the so called and mislabeled Biblical scientists to test.
But they don't acause it ain't there.
Maybe we just don't need that marker, something science is only going to discover in the future,
Whether we need it or not is irrelevant. If any of the Biblical flood myths were true it has to be there.
And it ain't.
The fact that every old culture has a flood story, with many common themes like those mentioned in the Bible, that proves that there was a global flood.
That has to be one of the stupidest, idiotic assertions ever made. Of course lots of flood myths do not mean there was a global flood. It might mean that floods happen most everywhere though and guess what?
Floods happen most everywhere.
Sorry but the idea that there was a Biblical flood has been refuted for well over a hundred years.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Re: you're going to have to "Stuudy Genesis" even more than that.
What does exist however, is more than 300 flood stories, spread out over the whole world, with the same elements; one family escaping on a boat, birds being send out to check if the world is dry, a rainbow as a divine sign.
So therefore, we have a strong proof that the flood did happen.
Sorry but that is simply not true.
And even if it was true it is not evidence of a global flood.
But again, that is irrelevant, unimportant.
The fact is that all the evidence for a Biblical flood is completely refuted if that bottleneck signature is not there. It does not matter how much evidence there is for something if even one fact refutes it.
It really is that simple.
No honest person today can ever claim that the Biblical flood happened.
What they might claim is that despite the fact that the Biblical flood myths have been refuted they wish to continue to believe them.

Re: I study Genesis and the rest of the Torah non-stop.
From where do you get that ugly & mistaken idea that it is not true??
From reality.
If you believe that I am wrong then simply present the more than 300 flood stories, spread out over the whole world, with the same elements; one family escaping on a boat, birds being send out to check if the world is dry, a rainbow as a divine sign.
But as I point out, even if those stories existed the Biblical flood myths are refuted by the missing bottleneck signature.
If you believe that is wrong then simply present the evidence that the bottleneck signature actually is there.
