I doubt he had Dinos, but there was absolutely a great flood that covered most of the earth and destroyed many civilizations about 12 thousands years ago.

dinosaur means terrible lizard. no there were no terrible lizards on the ark but there were regular lizards in the ark. 2 to be exact.

Great regional floods? Yes. Go out to the Columbia River Basin in Central Washington, and you’ll see all kids of evidence of regional flooding, ie cama prairie current ripples. Fascinating stuff.

There is no evidence to support the theory of global flooding 12,000 years ago.

I can't speak to timing, but isn't there some consensus on a widespread flood?

Why are you concerned with what others believe anyway?

Something interesting to me is I rarely see believers getting angry or confrontational about what 'others' believe or disbelieve... but for some ungodly reason, unbelievers get quite het up over what Christians believe.

Cop.out. there can be a mix.

Example. Genesis says everything was built in 7 days. You think Moses would have been able to comprehend millions and millions of years?

It had to be explained so that he could understand it

So technically both can be right.

Hebrews 11:1

All anyone has is faith, really... the substance thereof may differ, but the absolute allegiance remains the same- if it were not so, unbelievers wouldn't be so angry at those who do believe.

6 days.

7th was rest.

I believe this.

God is almighty... why wouldn’t I believe this could be true? He's either almighty or he isn't.

That's your right.

Creating something from nothing is pretty almighty to me, no matter how long it takes.

I choose to believe that He is Almighty and also that science can explain it. I didn't understand why religion and science fight. They can be homogenous.

I also ty and understand the Word at the time it was written vs the interpretation of it today.

not really up for debate that the rapid degalciation and dumping huge amounts of freshwater and having massive glacier dams busted, flooding regionally all over the northern hemisphere at the end of the younger dryes. That’s not even talking about the disruption in ocean currents and the quick rise in sea levels.

I agree with this. No argument from me?

That's a mighty battle, and another thing I agree with- to an extent. Although I have to admit, whether Bible or other important documents- I tend to be originalist vs "living interpretation ".

If God is almighty, as you say, couldn't He have done it an instant? Why take so long? After all, God is beyond space-time. That is to say, he is beyond time: "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." Revelation 22:13.

And if He is so "almighty", why did he need to rest?

Maybe what you believe to be God is not so much "almighty", but more just "partmighty".

I don't disagree... just wondering where these other ideas were coming from.

I believe God and science are compatible... we just don't know everything yet.

Took the kid to church camp last week. When discussing Genesis, creation and dinosaurs, someone made this comment. Agree or disagree? Why or why not?

Noah and the ark is just another old wives tale of fictional characters. How you think these primitives back thousands of years ago were supposed to find 2 of every animal and making sure that each animal were breedable at that. Then think of all the incestual incesting that had to take place after to rebuild up all these animals. No wonder why animals are so retarded now, huh. Yall white people really be believing all these fictional old wives fairy tales to be true and factual? The brainwashing is skrong with yall.

Not really. He made a claim, didn't really explain it at all.

Would he been better off to make a claim and some rando bible verse to back it up? I can give you some Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter quotes to back up some claims too.

Of course he could have.

Take six days? Perhaps as a pattern for his creation to follow. Have you ever given time to study the Biblical account of creation? Its quite beautiful.

He didn’t need the rest... but the rest is a blessing to His creation and He modeled that for us.

Maybe I'm wrong.

If I am, then my disposition is no different than yours... but if I'm right in my faith- we will see very different ends. I'm no apologist- but I do pray.

Well.. then do so.

You exist in 2025... tell me why that is so.

Surely if you have tLotR or HP to quote from, I'll definitely consider it.

Gandalf and a bunch of midgets saved us all by throwing some ring into a lava pit in the bottom of some corrupt mountain.

I get you into incest and you want to tell us we only here bc adam and eve had kids and their kids banged each other and then they had kids and then they all banged each other again and again so on and so forth. Then there was a great flood that killed everyone but Noah and his family and they had to bang each other who begotten kids and they kids banged each other and so on and so forth to rebuild the population.

Yeah your fictional book sounds more worship worthy if you in incest like you is be apparently.
