flood

Here in Michigan, we just experienced a flood - well, sort of. It was a very "suburban" sort of disaster. No one died. No one was left homeless. (Well, maybe one or two people in each category, but not much.) Primarily, there was a lot of property damage, most of it in the form of finished...

Above is an example of a representation of what the writers of the Old Testament would have believed the phsyical world was like. What evidence, beyond the biblical description, is there that this is true? Because if it's just referencing the bible then the argument boils down to "I...

I'm going to try a different method than I have ever tried. I'm going to open a thread on the flood by simply asking anyone who cares to to ask me whatever they want to ask me about the flood. This could potentially save a great deal of time.

Earlier tonight a German friend wrote me and gave me this little slice of her every day life. Early this morning as she and her mom was having breakfast and reading the newspaper, there was an article in the paper of Ötzi the Iceman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%96tzi saying that they think...

There is one thing that has intrigued me about young earth creationists: how do they explain the existence of freshwater fish? The Bible makes no mention of Noah bringing fish or other forms of aquatic life on board the Ark nor is there any suggestion aquatic life died as did all land-based...

Sorry. I accidently submitted a duplicate entry. Still trying to work out how the forum works!

It's dead on accurate...it's the explanation that the creationists have been seeking for all these years...

I recall participating in a discussion on a fundie board (since censored in odious fashion) whein a person with some knowledge of physics (evidentially) ran thru a number of calculations that expressed the energy that would be released with a Flood event. It suggested massive rises in...

Challenge, post at least ONE evidence of a global flood. Edit : Fixed typo

There was a great letter in today’s NYTimes. They had run an article a couple of days ago about all of the young conservatives coming to Washington for the summer or to start their careers “reshaping” America. The story was about living in Dorms run by organizations like the Heritage...

Can someone give me the top ten reasons why a universal flood could not happen? Can someone gime me the top ten reasons why the ark part could not happen (all the animals in the ark)?

Can anyone find a link to that story that was written from the perspective of a mother that was a Flood victim? I remember it was really sad, anyone know what I'm talking about?

Ok, I need to know ALL the problems with The Flood story. I'd post in R.P. but it might be derailed quickly. I've thought of a few; carring for polar bears(they overheat in conditions that would kill us), how would all the land species that have ever lived fit on the ark(remember YEC have...
