Hopefully when you get sick you wont go see a scientist (doctor) at the science center (hospital).

There is zero evidence of water covering the entire earth, including mountains. And it would take longer than 40 days. Where did the water come from? Where did go?


im glad you asked... There could have been a canopy of water covering the earth, making the whole earth a tropical climate. there was no rain before this, just a mist , like a huge planetarium (as tropical vegetation remains have been found all over the earth) and enabling people to live hundreds of years longer (as stated in the Bible). Canopy comes crashing down for 40 days and floods the earth, covers up thousands of years of civilizations, changes the climate and life expectancy forever, creates the oceans and fossilizes a lot of plants and animals almost immediately. Then with no canopy to protect the earth , the water freezes in the poles to make north and south america and an ice age that could have destroyed dinosaurs, and without the canopy for protection, lowers human's lifespans with increased sun exposure.

Im not saying this is exactly what happened, but giving you one theory in how it could have worked and ties together with known geology.

It's exactly halfway between Lexington and Cincinnati. Meaning in the middle of fricking nowhere. Do yourself a favor and either come here for some horse racing or go to Cincinnati for a Reds game instead.

I am impressed. There’s really no need to watch the whole thing- the meat and potatoes are in the first 45-60 minutes. It seems at least plausible to me. Especially considering how our political and educational institutions unwilling to acknowledge the possibility of being wrong, and will crush any opposing views without intellectual debate. The naturalistic worldview, which forces Darwinian evolution on our children, is the same worldview that expects us to accept that transvestites (I prefer this term) are totally normal.

I'm guessing this thread is filled with folks that believe reptiles once had feathers.

It's hard to tell if comments like this are real. Can people really be this ignorant?

Not me, I believe an old guy with a beard in the sky waved a magic wand and created everything.

So how exactly would mist from a water canopy extend human life by literally hundreds of years?

Because that's what happens when it rains a lot.

apparently they claim that Noah had dinosaurs on board the boat? I...just...can't.


I don’t know why it would be hard to fathom that dinosaur eggs or even small dinosaurs would be able to be housed in some fashion on the ark. Same goes for 2 of every “kind” not 2 of every “species”.

So if Noah only saved 2 of every "kind" of animal instead of 2 of every "species", then does the vast biodiversity of species today mean that evolution is also canon in the christian worldview?

Also, how do you explain evolution acting fast enough to create so many different species in under 6k years, but then seemingly slowing down to a crawl in the last couple hundred years since humans have been keeping more detailed records of animal life? I'm assuming someone who takes a literal interpretation of the Noah's Ark story would also believe in Young Earth Creationism?

Well one should know that’s BS. The only way a person could know is if they’re about to unless an anti-matter bomb.
Humans aren’t supposed to know anyway.

I have been. I don't really agree with everything I saw or heard but that didn't diminish the experience. Seeing the Creation Museum beforehand was helpful.
