OLAADEGBU:Still has your lying cap on, sir, or you don't know the meaning of "drop"? You only drop something previously held, not something you never held. I have never defended or repudiated "Darwin's idea" on this forum. Why are you hallucinating? OLAADEGBU:Lol. I suspect you are getting things mixed up. What do you understand by "humanist ideologies", or what does "humanism" mean to you? OLAADEGBU:Lying against me again, ehn? ehn?? Where have I said I "think Adam could attain the physical height of 90ft"? OLAADEGBU:I'm thinking that is the site you got your "genetics" from. Must be quite some site. But, no, I won't click on it. Thanks, anyway. And wait till someone produces a www.answersinquran.org to explain the genetics at the pith of the 90 foot theory!  |

Obviously LagosShia has verified everything in the Bible and Quran and found there are fairy tales in the former but not the latter! Nimshi:Mama Eve was 87ft 9" tall! |

Sweetnecta: It is not only muslims that have difficulties in understanding the KJV the Gap theorists also make the same mistake as they don't know that the word 'replenish' in Genesis 1:28 means to 'fill' in modern English, and as a result have gone on a different tangent proposing that the earth was reformed. If you cannot get it that the word 'meat' means food then I don't know whether your case is beyond redemption. Sweetnecta: Just replace the word 'meat' with 'food' and see whether it wll make sense to you. Sweetnecta: That is what you need to do instead of blindly following a dogma that is not logical, sensible, scientific or reasonable.  |

Before KJV, there were many Versions. Your case is dire, Olaadegbu, if you say food means just Vegetable with any flesh. Olaadegbu is proposing to us that the hawk, eagle, vulture, lion, tiger, etc in those days ate on only what mouse, gazelle ate. Then some how after the flood of Noah, the lion began to chase the buffalo for food. Funny. I laugh in Olaadegbu's village dialect. [Quote]Just replace the word 'meat' with 'food' and see whether it wll make sense to you.[/QUote]The same way you replaced Lord with Father and Jesus became son of the Father? I don't do replacing. I leave that kind of game for you. [Quote]That is what you need to do instead of blindly following a dogma that is not logical, sensible, scientific or reasonable. Tongue[/Quote]What are logical and reasonable are that there is a Creator Who created everything and then created Adam as the first man. When I know that God has Power all things, it is not difficult for me that when Adam was created, he was made to be a tall man, and 90 ft is not far fetched. After all, God created Angels that one of them can cover the whole horizon. What is illogical and unreasonable is to oppose the height of Adam just because man in your view cant be that that, while at the same time you accept that Adam lived for 1,000 years, more or less. Your disagreement with the 90 ft height is because your Bible does not have an opinion, though the same Bible says that sons of God produced human giants. How tiny are these sons of God, compared to Adam? Are the sons of God now dead, too? Or they returned home? Olaadegbu and his funnies. |

@Olaadegbu: O dabo. You are not making any sense. Noah's ark is to take only local land animals. This is a local flood, whereby Dinosaurs and other land animals and definitely sea animals were unaffected. I wanna take a long break away from you, because i find you boring. |

Sweetnecta: The sense you need to make is to see how Adam would be two times taller than the Ark of Noah. [img width=500 height=500]http://www.answersingenesis.org/assets/images/media/cartoons/after-eden/20031020-3.gif[/img] |

Adam was not in the ark you wearer of cone shaped cap. Do you live in a dog house? You must be at least 2 times taller. Do you live in a midget house? You must be at least 2 times taller |

imagine how short the people of the Bible's Tower of Babel. they wanted to build tower to rise to heaven so much that it bothered the Biblical God. that caused Him to confuse their tongues. they do not understand themselves, any longer. so the project was abandoned. What was the size of the bricks they were using? hopefully, it the size of Lego, because of their littleness. Then we have stone Henge, built by even more tiny people because it is shorter, for sure than the expected height of Tower of Babel. Hence, the stone must be smaller than the lego blocks. |

"Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth: And the days after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died" (Genesis 5:3-5). As you can see, the Bible gives accurate and precise genealogy when it comes to the descendants of Adam, and it is clear that they lived long lives. Creationist scientists say that the ultraviolet exposure in those days was low due to the water canopy and that the nutritional value of foods was extremely high, folks back in Africa enjoy more natural healthy foods than we in the West. The Adamic race grow till they become adults and they do not grow taller again unlike Dinosaurs or like other animals like the tortoise. The Bible gave us the exact measurement that Noah used to build the Ark. "And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits" (Genesis 6:12). The infinite Uncreated Creator gave Noah the specifications and measurement of the Ark to be built, and with the help of this measurement we can have an idea of how tall people a few generations from Adam were, note that Methuselah who lived for 969 years died just before the flood started and he must have seen Noah during his lifetime. The ark was as long as one and a half football fields 510 feet (155 metres), it was as tall as a 4 storey building 45 feet (14 metres) and about 85 feet (23 metres) wide. Can anyone tell me how Adam who was a few generations earlier could be as twice as tall as this Ark that was to accommodate all the land and air animals and birds that were represented? [edit] To see Muslims and Atheists agreeing on this is incredible to say the least. |

The [b]Bible gave us the exact measurement that Noah used to build the Ark.[/Quote]which came first; the ark of Noah or Adam? If it is Adam, how is the ark that came 1,000s of years later an indicator of the height of Adam? And what genealogy did the Bible give of the family of Adam? How is it accurate that only Seth was mentioned, after Abel and Cain, while the many sons and daughters were not even numbered and no name of any of them provided? Contrast it with the genealogy of the man called Jesus, with names of his male ancestors, regardless of how inaccurate the two given were. At least we read names, and in Adam, we read but just 3 names of his sons, and we read no more or the numbers of children came from me. If that was your precision, I accept for you your 3 gods being your 1 God. I see your folly. [Quote]"And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits" (Genesis 6:12).

But what I intend to address is that the ark's measurement does not tell us how tall even Noah was, how can you use it as indicator about the height of Adam? For all me Noah and the few people who were with him could have slept through it. It was not for years, but long enough to perish the evil doers and begin the reconstitution the human race. [Quote]The ark was as long as one and a half football fields 510 feet (155 metres), [/b]it was as tall as a 4 storey building 45 feet (14 metres) and about 85 feet (23 metres) wide. [b]Can anyone tell me how Adam who was a few generations earlier could be as twice as tall as this Ark [/Quote]How did Ed too tall Jones of the 1970s Dallas cowboys used to sleep in camping outing in his less than 8 by 8 camp tent? If the length of the Ark is what we go by, especially when it was not designed for luxury as state rooms of Luxury yacht are, then I suggest that a 90 ft tall man and few friends will feel comfortable waiting out the rainy weather without feeling that the place is too crowded. Now, let me laugh at you below. [Quote]that was to accommodate all the land and air animals and birds respectively? To see Muslims and Atheists agreeing on this is incredible to say the least.[/Quote][quote][/Quote]this is the most ridiculous statement i have ever heard. One will read the Bible and wonder if Biblical God was angry at the sinless animals. Was the flood meant to wipe everything off the faces of the earth, or to wipe off the evil doers in the only human community on earth? The all birds and animals will have to be the domesticated ones that were local to them, needed to be preserved. Birds of the air will fly away as in migration to where the condition is no of peril as where they left. God did not make the safety he was providing Noah a burden for him and the few who followed him. So I will not expect him to have poisonous snake so that they have to erect a cage for it. Those animals were in other local places, and they did not need to save a lion because lion was not one of the local animals. |

Sweetnecta: And prophet Mo is the one who revealed the names of the children missed out including their heights.  Evolutionists and theist evolutionists don't even believe that Adam was a real person, they see him as a myth and you corroborate that by claiming that 'Adam' was a 90 feet monster, and if you believe Jesus is real how can He be descended from a myth?Sweetnecta: Tell us from your qur'an and hadiths how tall Methusaleh and Noah were, did your prophet missed them? Sweetnecta: Do you really know what you are talking about? 90 feet is as tall as a four storey building, and that's if you don't know. Sweetnecta: This is the revealed Word of God that you need to read: "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). As you can see, your islamic position is similar to what the theist evolutionists claim, that the Flood was a local flood. If this was so why didn't God simply say that Noah and the animals should migrate to where there was no Flood? This is the evidence that the evil one has used islam, evolution, theist evolution and gap theories and even traditional religion to attack the living word of God which is the Truth Book. The line has been drawn: The authority of the Word of God or the authority of the secular or religious men. |

Olaadegbu; I will leave ou with your 3 gods. Asking me to provide you with the height of Noah and Methuselah is some kind of ridiculous statement, since you do not accept the height of the first man on earth. Maybe you think God created Adam as a baby or an immature man? I see the little boy in the cartoon is talking to you, you being the mom. The boy and you didn't know when the pin hole camera, being the first camera was invented, relative to the existence of Adam. this is the reaon the measurement is not matching the unseen picture of Adam [as]. If anyone was to know his height, it would be the That Prophet, the another comforter, a spirit from God, being the prophet that said Jesus is the christ. |

Y can't many pple get it dat u shuldn't take wot u read in ancient religious books literally.they r mostly fables.n besides real meanings have being lost in translation.in prehistoric times,a man of 6feet is considered a giant.even goliath in d bible culdn't have being up 6.5feet.body armours worn by warriors which were discovered by archaelogists showed dat the average height of dis soldiers was just under 5feet. A study of history shows clearly dat humans are growing taller.d evidence clearly shows dat early men were rather small in stature.pple r always surprised at the small size of our ancestors' apparels wen they visit museums of natural history. In p'haps a 1000yrs from now,an american basketballer's height would be the average height of humansence clearly shows dat early men were rather small in stature.pple r always surprised at the small size of our ancestors' apparels wen they visit museums of natural history.

Sweetnecta: The boy in the cartoon just like many folks here are used to the proportion of the ark taught to them in sunday schools but when they discover the biblical proportion of Noah's ark they will come to the realisation of how gigantic the ark was and for you to say that Adam was two times taller than the height of the ark means that you are a victim of the myth you were indoctrinated with. Just like the myth in the picture below about the size of the Ark. By the way, who was the 9th person in the Ark? |

^^^^^^^^ Whats the 9th person? my understanding of Nuh and his people is different from yours. And regardless of how large a Yacht is, on the ocean it is so tiny. While the Bible is measuring the ark, it forgot to tell us the height of the one it claims: That God[s] created in their own image[s], in the Let us create man in our own Image. By this, one should ask is father is the same height as Jesus, while Jesus was under 7 ft high? Consider that Hakeem Olajuwon is 7 ft 2 inches, the simple man must be taller than them if we take it like that. Incidentally, the builders of mini vehicles are the same builders of big luxury buses. That God created the vast earth, and other vast objects in space that dwarf the earth. That all under the heaven is simply enveloped by the heaven. This is just the first heaven enveloping everything under it. That the enveloping is a sign that these things under it are small compared to the envelope. That there are 7 heavens, each heaven and what it envelops is enveloped by the heaven on top of it. By this the 7th heaven envelops all that is under it. And on top of the 7th heaven, dwarfing it is other creation of God. That all of these, as complex as they are, are nothing more than what God Almighty could hold in His Hand, or even more things. When we look at what God can do, and just what He has allowed our mind to accept, should anyone who believes God is Able Creator be surprise if Adam is taller than 90 ft, it is unreasonable? A person who says Adam should be about our size should show us his reason, when mere Goliath was called a giant in just a time past that is less than 5,000 years back? Imagine how large to us and so insignificant to God whatever the size of Adam, the first was? I was told that Adam was high as the highest mountain, I would not have doubted it. Imagine him and his wife alone on this wild world as even 2000 ft? This is nothing. Now that the messenger [as], the only one known as simply "The Prophet" and everyone will know you are talking about "Muhammad", says that Adam is just 90 ft tall, why disagree with it, if you can tell us exactly how tall the first man actually was? I know. Its your prejudice against the truth Muhammad [as] brought. Allah creates what He wills. And while Yahweh is jealous, everything comes to Allah as servants, creation. After all, Angels in their true form cn be larger than the whole earth. And if they need to appear to humans as just average size men, it is no problem for their Master, The Creator. There was no incubation period in mom's womb for either Adam or Eve. So to use the starting small and getting bigger is not in their own lives. THey started fully big and matured. The reverse is what happened to them. The became smaller later as they near their death, in the same way that we shrink somewhat as we are old and withering to our last days. Imagine how different Ronald Reagen was in his last days compared to his strong stature in his cinema and broadcasting years. Or even when he was the Governor of California. Look at Arnold Schwarzenegger in his Conan the Barbarian days versus now that he is out of the Governor's office? |

Olaadegbu, did you notice beard on the faces of men in your cartoon? do you wear beard, man, or its woman like face you carry on your shoulders? just like Allah did not bother to tell us the names of the military generals that died in the sea with pharaoh of Exodus, the names of the people in the ark were not mentioned. we know some people were with Noah. we know that a son of his and his wife were not. You don't know the exact height of Noah, how come you can dispute the height of Adam, when you are not a prophet? currently you are not even a believer. yet you are having a different opinion from what the spirit of truth from God says. this is the sign of Kufr. yet you agree that Adam was long on earth. imagine him as a 9 footer or even much taller. lets ask ourselves, since you are using the eyes of today [yardstick] to look at Adam, the only human at the time he first breathed, how much will be left of a man starting out at 9 ft or much taller will remain after living for close to or over 1,000 years? will he be more than skull and bones, the fraternal order of former president bush at yale? i will not doubt that Adam was 90ft and has that much meat and bones to carry it. That will allow him to weather the condition appropriately. |

Sweetnecta: Why do you have to always compare the Bible/Christianity with your Qur'an/Islam? Can't you stand on your own? Do you have to attack the Bible in order for you to validate your Qur'an? Which one came first, the chicken or the egg, the Bible or the Qur'an? We have seen the photoshop 'evidence' you gave for the giant skeletons just as the paganistic evolutionist 'scientists' have given us their 'evidence' of how bears evolved into whales according to the daydreams of Darwin. What are you now saying about where Noah's Ark rested? Where did the Bible say it rested and where is the evidence that you found the real MCcoy? Are you sure you are not showing us photoshop pictures again? or are they videoclips? I can show you what looks like the real MCcoy that was discovered and this in video and documented records if you really want to know. |
