In one part it says God created them both at the same time. In the other it says he created Adam and the whole rib thing.

well i guess its just interpretation but thats not a big deal. Their other points are much bigger. so im expected to believe that Noah who was like 900 years old fit all 10 billion species of animals on a single ship? so how come certain animals are only in certain parts of the world? did he sail around dropping certain things off in certain palces?

year, is a measure of time, it hasn't always been the same as we have now.
there were much less species on the planet that long ago.
animals are where they are now from migration. Also, the earth was only one continent.

One...numbers in the Bible weren't literal. The OT is filled with symbolic numbers.

Two....the flood occured in part of the world...and it was probably just farm/personal animals. Also not meant to be taken literally...and historically such a flood did occur.

Not only that, if noah only had two of each species, then most of them would have gone extinct due to starvation.

Either all the herbivores would be extinct due to the carnivores eating them all, or the herbivores would be extinct anyways because they'd starve waiting for all the plants to grow back.

someone else posted this:

In the first creation story, the one in Genesis 1, God creates man on the sixth day. It clearly says in Genesis 1:27 that both man and woman are created. In Genesis 2:4-22, the male is created first and only after he does a few other things first is the female then created.

He's trying to tell you that by the time the flood happened, the continents were already seperated. They had been seperated for millions of years.

[QUOTE="Beaman"]I only watched to the point where they said God created adam and eve at the same time... which he didn't. FAILEDBeaman

In one part it says God created them both at the same time. In the other it says he created Adam and the whole rib thing.

/religion failed

God didn't say that. The Bible says created them in His image and to increase in number. He did say them but The Bible never says God created them at the same time. Never.

well i guess its just interpretation but thats not a big deal. Their other points are much bigger. so im exected to believe that Noah who was like 900 years old fit all 10 billion species of animals on a single ship? so how come certain animals are only in certain parts of the world? did he sail around dropping certain things off in certain palces?


year, is a measure of time, it hasn't always been the same as we have now.
there were much less species on the planet that long ago.
animals are where they are now from migration. Also, the earth was only one continent.

do you realize how long continental drift took? Cause i'll let you in on a secret. it didnt happen over night.


Yes I know it didn't happen over night, that just proves my point :|

took millions of years. not a couple thousand.


yea... firstly, much less speciation of animals then there is now, secondly, the lenth it took would give certai nanimals time to adapt tot he slow changes in climat.

do you actually read your own posts?

No I smash the keyboard and hope words come out...

ok good thats what i thought.

One...numbers in the Bible weren't literal. The OT is filled with symbolic numbers.

Two....the flood occured in part of the world...and it was probably just farm/personal animals. Also not meant to be taken literally...and historically such a flood did occur.

I'd like to know who decided which parts of the Bible are literal and which aren't. Christian around the world can't even come to a concensus on what's "Literal" and what's not.

Seriously, on what claim can you say that it's not to be taken literal? Does it say it in there?

Bible says two of every animal. that means all 10 billion species x 2.

....wow. It says, first of all, the creatures of the land. Think about all of the creatures IN THE SEA. When you think about it, there are far far more many sea creatures than land creatures. You could count insects, but I wouldn't know if God included insects. So it's quite possile he could've got all of the animals on there (especially if God helped). You're rather close-minded.

Wrong answer....you do realize they didn't even know 10 billion species existed.:lol:

definition of every: every(a): (used of count nouns) each and all of the members of a group considered singly and without exception; "every person is mortal"; "every party is welcome"; "had every hope of success"; "every chance of winning"


Man, if only god had a dictionary :roll:
you do know the bible isn't originally english right?

And you are aware the definition of every is relative to one's experience? If not...you should be.:roll:

so that means the Bible is just built on people's perceptions of things. Perceptions are not anything but perceptions. Basically the Bible is a lie if they didn't have every single species on the ship (at least the land ones). You'll notice the definition says "without exception."

He would've had to have done a whole bunch of stuff to get that many animals in the boat. Even if you only count the land animals, which is pretty much what every one else on this Earth was assuming since sea animals don't drown in floods (duh) you still got massive creatures that need to be feed thousands of pounds of food every day.

Then you still have the lack of proof to contend with. As of today, there is still no proof of a global flood, nor enough water to cover the entire Earth.

The Bible came together in a certain time period...and by a particular group of people. Of course it involves their experience....and none other. You'll note that every is dependent on life experience. If you only saw dogs all your life...you'd think dogs were the only animal. Seriously dude....you need to learn how to apply words.

If you only count land animals, it's still a number so staggering it's mind boggling to think it's even possible to put them on one boat.

Then when you think about it, how the hell did all the plant life survive the flood? 40 days of global flooding would kill the vast majority of plant life such as trees, grass, shrubs, and most importantly crops. They would all be extinct.

So...does god literally exist, or is he just symbolic too?

It wasn't a global flood....it was a flood where they lived. You do realize one views their world as the entire world? The world was much smaller to people who didn't have modern conveyances....or knowledge.
