Ranchhoddas: so you support evolution when it suits you.FYI,speciation takes hundreds of thousands to millions of years,your happened in less than 6,000yrs.Please also explain creation/evolution/speciation of viruses and bacteria and other micro-organisms in relation to Noah's ark when you are responding to this post.if you'd calm down and think, you'd realize that viruses and bacteria change much faster than more complex organisms, in minutes, they reproduce, in days, they adapt. Go and do some reading. And when those animals got off that ark, they met a completely different earth awaiting them, a scarred earth with a diffferent climate. The environmental pressures will cause them to adapt even faster, or die. Evolution does not follow a specific time graph. It simply depends on the degree of adaptation. And evolution in its basic sense is simply change. The adaptation of organisms to their environments, the creation of new varieties of the same kind of organism as it adapts locally to a particular environment. I believe in that kind of change, as it happens around us, but I don't believe in change of kind. Darwinian change of kind is a foolish speculation, a very foolish one. phuck_NL:sorry, but simply shut up and show us how the event of a global flood is a lie. Did you open the links and read them? You've made no single argument so far. And carbon dating is very inaccurate and prone to contamination and does not even consider the earth's rapidly decaying magnetic field as I said. So show us the lies in this recorded event or be quiet sir. Mere accusations and shouting "it's a lie" will only fool grossly gullible people. Thank you. 1 Like |

Go and do some reading. I will not downgrade myself by throwing abuses like you. I am used to it. Rather than explain things, people like you resort to abuses because you have no FACT and expect people to just BELIEVE you. Everything you stated up there is just YOUR OPINION. NO IOTA of truth or fact in there at all. IF this is what happened, why isn't it clearly stated in the religious books. Why do you have to go through parables and clues that are left for different interpretations? I maintain my stance that they are all LIES because they have been disproven. Why did you ignore the RAINBOW comment? Clear to elaborate on that? For anyone to think an ARK stored ALL those animals is just LUDACRIS. Wake up 6 Likes |

It is funny that the same people that brought religion and the religious books to you have moved on and realized that a lot of lies were told. Yet here you are believing fallacies. When are we going to stop the SLAVE MENTALITY. You throw away everything our African ancestors believed in and call them lies and chose to believe the fallacies brought to you by WESTERN colonizers. Did it ever occur to you that if not for Slavery and Colonization, you would never have found out about this ark story that you hold so dear. Are you telling me now that GOD favours the west?

You expect people to sit down here and believe STORIES/MYTHS/LIES told by ancient people that were anything but half as smart as modern day men. Most of these things you hold dearly were simply tales. During that time, MAN had a very "timid" "non developed" brain/thinking faculty. They interpreted everything in the best way they could. This is the reason why even in the villages in Africa, you still have people thinking when it is raining and the sun is out, a lion just gave birth - WE KNOW BETTER NOW. Same reason they thought the earth was flat. Same reason they thought somebody lived in a "fishs" belly for days, same reason they thought a rainbow was a sign that a flood will never occur again, yet we have tsunamis and katrinas everyday. Same reason they thought the heavens (clouds) were connected to the earth and that MAN built structures to reach the clouds. I mean lets get serious. We are now more developed and have smarter brains. To believe all these fallacies would simply mean you still have the brain that existed thousands of years ago which is a damn shame 9 Likes |

@Josh @olaadegbu I'm yet to see an attempt to refute mazaje's view of the improbability of a global flood about 6000 years ago due to the Uninterrupted history of the Chinese,aztecs and other tribes.Did the flood miss the people in those lands or the waters couldn't destroy their records. Another thing plaguing my mind is how one family (a middle eastern one) was able to re-populate the world to about 7 billion in such a short time and how they managed to give birth to other races such as negroes. 6 Likes |

phuck_NL:how have I abused you? I simply asked you to show how this event is an impossibility and a lie and you resort to this. This thread is not about rainbows, its us discussing the possibility of a great global flood happening. I have showed you that only specific pairs of each kind of animals, not species, were chosen, and I have shown you evidence and even posted further links for you to read up on the subject, and yet you still claim it is a lie without caring to show us how. And how can you claim religious books as leverage when you have clearly stated that things written in religious books are a lie? You seem to be speaking from misplaced grudge. Drop your grudges and examine evidence and dsicuss these issues instead of blindly claiming it is a lie without caring to show us how and when they have been disproved. phuck_NL: It is funny that the same people that brought religion and the religious books to you have moved on and realized that a lot of lies were told.

How can you claim in one post that we have forsaken our ancestors thinking and claim in another post that the writers of the bible were not as smart as we are today? Are our ancestors smart then? And the bible claims that there will never be a global flood event, not a local flood event, and it will interest you to know that it was missionaries who brought the gospel, not colonizers. And theonly reason we have advancement today is because man is able to share knowledge and build on research. Man has always been smart. But all this is besides the point.

peterphd: @Josh @olaadegbunope, the flood got them all. It is recorded to be global, and the flood actually happened about 4500 years ago. peterphd: Another thing plaguing my mind is how one family (a middle eastern one) was able to re-populate the world to about 7 billion in such a short time and how they managed to give birth to other races such as negroes.let's tackle this mathematically then, no need to make assumptions. Do the maths, and you'll see that its actually even more evidence of the fact that the global flood happened about 4,500 years ago. You will have about 6.8 billion people if you do the maths with a generation period of 150 h is very conservative. Human population doubles every 50 years about, inspite of natural disasters and deaths) If you do similar geometric mathematical reconciliation with even an age like 50,000 years, with only a single set of parents and a conservative generation period, we will have an impossible number of human beings (more than 90 zeros at the back of the 1). So doing the maths well will even prove that the earth is younger than we think, and that a global disaster must have happened 4500 years ago that reduced humanity to a population of 8. |

Joshthefirst: nope. Do you know how many species arise everyday? I disagree. And even if it was so, remember that the bibilical records specifically stated he take a pair(or seven pairs) of each kind of animal, and not each species. We can rightly conclude that the terrestrials that survived the flood in the ark gave rise to the different species we see today. The kind of species we are talking about do not evolve in 6000 years. . .What do you mean by give rise to new species?. . .Are you now in support of evolution or what?. . .It is very obvious that the animals in the ark assuming the story is true could not give rise to all the animals we see today unless true evolution. . . I meant the massive deposits of the flood raised landscapes and buried populations of organisms alive. raised landscape, and I disagree. Scientific dating is very fallible and prone to the bias of the gradual earth scientists, and contamination and even does not consider the rapid decay of the earths magnetic field. There is massive evidence all around us for a global flood. From scarred landscape only possible as a result of very massive corrosive effect of extremely fast moving water, to the millions and millions of fossils we see, to the fact that there are fossils of both terrestrials and aquatic animals rapidly buried alive together(what would a possum be doing fossilized beside a whale?, some animals buried so quickly in sand that they were on the verge of eating a meal, or giving birth, to the fossils of aquatic animals in very high altitudes etc. There is too much evidence of the flood, the global flood. The world's a graveyard. Scientific dating are 95% accurate. . .Can you provide your own scientific method of dating that sdhows that mount everist is 6000 years old?. . .There is NO evidence at all for any global flood, stop going to christian apoligist sites to copy rubbish. . .I have watched christian geolgist debates the quacks in answers in genesis about the imporbability of a global flood. . .Real geologist that are christians know it is impossible and have since declared it a regional flood just to keep faith alive. . .many are already saying its an allegory. . . in addition to my reply above, the christians don't know any better. Most civilizations have ancient legends and tales of a flood, they are corrupt accounts passed down orally. There is too much evidence for us. Not most civilizations, it is very false. . .Civilizations that live close to water have flood myths. . .The first flood story ever written is the epic of gilgamesh. . .That is where the ancient jews copied their story from. . .There is no evidence for you because we have uniterupted written history fro india, china, from the mayans etc. . .If the Noah's flood was true why didn't it wipe away the indians, chinese, mayans, egyptians etc?. . .Their uninteropted flow of history shows that the noah's flood remains a myth. . . continents would have been different if an ancient cataclysmic event that caused underground crust-shiftings and magma eruptions happened 6000 years ago. Modern creationists do not claim it is allegory, not all of them, we claim it is real, the evidence of fossils and such is hard to ignore. Stop speaking english you do not understand at all. . .The flood was said to have happened about 4300 years ago not 6000 years ago as i earlier stated, the continents were already separated and were already the way they are now. . .What are you saying?. . .The continents separated millions of years ago. . .Not 4000years ago. . .4000 years ago is NOT too distant. . .We have uninterupted history from other civilization that date back to 5000 years ago till date(e.g indians, chinese, mayans etc) sorry, but we're undeterred.

You asked me to shut up but anyway lets forget that. You say you have given evidence. I think you need to define what you mean by evidence. Somebody's story? How does that equate to evidence? If Man has always been smart as you claim, he wouldn't have needed to live in CAVES. The human brain developed/evolved over time hence where we are today. Anyway back to the topic : How were the different races of man accounted for in the Ark? 6000years is not enough for Man to evolve into the different races we have today. How did the animals survive in the ark? Water? Food? Did we only have a handful of humans and animals at the time? With the primitive resources available at the time, I find it difficult to believe all the relevant animals would have been in there without the Ark sinking. A more plausible explanation is still that a flood happened in a certain region of the world and Noah and his people and/or domesticated animals survived it. Humans just happened to twist the story so you shouldn't just believe everything you are told Carbon dating shows existence way beyond the 6000years you are claiming . This is a fact. 1 Like |

mazaje:I believe in speciation and adaptation. mazaje:this is a lie. Scientific dating is not completely reliable. Carbon dating can only go as far back as tens of thousands of years, this is also ignoring the earths decaying magnetic field. mazaje:I have shown you what you will expect from if global flood ever happens, and we see our world in agreement with this evidence. Have you read the link? All you're doing is appealing to authority. Nonsense. mazaje:this is a lie. Chinese recorded history goes back to as far as only 3000 years ago. Why are you lying here?

There are fossils of both marine and terrestrial organisms buried alive, fossils of marine organisms in extremely high altitudes. There are long lengths of landscape tevidence of scarring that can only be done by deposition and transportation of sediments by fast-moving waters of a huge scale(the grand canyons for eg) phuck_NL:men have always been smart, the reason we advance is because of exchange of information and research. Go out by yourself in a desolate land then, without much resources and see if you won't find a cave to lie down in the night. Man has not always lived in caves. Man has also built empires and pyramids. phuck_NL:what do you mean different races? We're all homo sapiens with slight variations, that's all. Did the ark not have windows? Did it not have space for storage? Again I say, noah put only pairs of each kind of animals. The links I posted before takes care of each of these issues comprehensively. phuck_NL:nope. You're the one twisting the story now. There is enough evidence of a global flood. You simply choose to close your ears and sing. phuck_NL:carbon dating only goes as far back as tens of thousands of years because of its moderate half-life.

Again, we must understand that there must have been much fewer species then than there are now, so the ark would have been convenient.

Cosmo Vern said: "I'd like to point out, in addition to my earlier reply, that only one of two scenarios could have allowed 3.6 million animals (1.8 million species, in pairs) and 8 humans to fit on the ark. 1. God shrank the animals so they'd all fit. 2. Noah was a Time Lord and the ark was a TARDIS." Response: There's one more scenario you haven't considered. See if you can spot the repetition of a particular word that skeptics dislike: "Of the birds after their kind, of animals after their kind, and of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind, two of every kind will come to you to keep them alive" (Genesis 6:20). That's right, it's the dreaded word "kind"—that archaic word that the dictionary defines as "a class or group of individual objects, people, animals, etc., of the same nature or character, or classified together because they have traits in common." It's a despised word because it means God didn't have to get today’s approximately 6.5 million species to fit onto the ark. It means Noah needed only one pair for the canine kind—from which would come all the species of dog, from the Chihuahua to the Great Dane—and one pair for the feline kind—from which would come the domesticated cat and the tiger, etc. So now we are talking just thousands of animals, not millions. And because these animals need not have been fully grown (averaging the size of a sheep), it becomes possible. Another consideration is the size of the ark. It wasn't the little rubber-ducky-bobbing-boat portrayed in kid's cartoons. It was a massive three-level ship, the size of one and a half football fields. 1 Like

Only that nothing like the Noah's global flood happened 4300 years ago. . .It is only a mythical story that happened in the pages of the bible and no where else. . .Where is your scientific method of dating that shows that the coninent separated 4300 years ago?. . .where is it?. . . nonsense. Have you checked the links? Answer this question with a yes or no. And most of what I say is what I think myself, I'm not dogmatic in believing speculations like you. You are new here obviously, we have beaten these points to death many many years ago with other christians. . .Oladegbuu knows it very well. . .All the points have been disproved here, there are countless numbers of topics on the flood myth. . .You can go throw them. . .No reasonable christian bothers to bring up such topic any more because it has been beaten to death, only Oladegbuu and his young earth creationist nonsense wants to keep refighting a lost battle. . . 3 Likes |

Joshthefirst: I've seen this many times. Its actually how atheists argue. When presented with facts and challenged to reason even scientificallt, they claim the person is brain dead and run away from the argument. Classic. Classic foolishness. You have not shown anything. . .Again from the link you dropped. . . Chinese recorded history goes back more than 3000 years and if you add archaeological evidence (including Chinese pottery), another millennium and a half, to roughly 2500 B.C. Their RECORDED history goes back more than 3000 years, meaning it could be anything from 3000 years to 6000 years that is just their RECORDED history ohhh, meaning their history before they invented their system of writing. . .it says MORE, not less or about 3000 years it says more. . .together with archaeological evidence it dates more than 4500 years that is just for their RECORDED history, not their history as a nation. . . Here is a historical map showing how life in China was 4500 years ago. . . http://www.timemaps.com/history/china-2500bc Now provide any map or evidence to show that there were no people living in china 4300 years ago. . . Where is your evidence that there were no people living in China 4300 years ago?. . .The pyramids of Egypt were built about 5000 years ago, so where is your evidence that there were no people living in Egypt at that time?. . .You clearly do not know what you are saying. . . 3 Likes |
