Hi all, been folowing this thread a while, and something occurred to me that I thought I would like to ask, although I am sure it's been asked on another thread, so feel free to redirect me.
What you are talking about is proving somewhere along the way that the tower of babel existed, and is the biblical reason for humanities diversity of language, right? And if it didnt exist ti goes a long way to disproving the accuracy of the bible as an historical document. So I was wondering about the recent ideas about there being no record of the Eygptians using jews as slaves. In which cas all the stuff about Moses etc is suspect as well. Since it relates to the babel idea being historic i feel it's quite relevant and I'd like to hear other peoples opinions.
Cheers
Rab

Re: What about the NASA space program?
Because man wasn't literally trying to reach God or set himself up in heaven. He was merely trying to reach the nearest satellite. Same answer as the skyscrapers really.
And thank you for the guidance to other threads.

"Absence of evidence is, at best, only weak evidence of absence."
Isn't that argument something that an evolutionist could say? And yet all of the Creationists clamour for evidence to prove the ToE. If this is your defence for there being no proof of slaves in Eygpt it would seem a rather flimsy one.
What do you want, complete evidence to prove ToE or would you be happy with "absence of evidence....."
