Go Artimis Go. I'm actually rooting for you to finish.
Your number of 100,000 animals on board the Ark, seems really high. Take dogs for example, if there are approximately 1,000 species of dog and all dogs are descendants of the wolf, wouldn't Noah just need a male and female wolf? Seems sufficient to me.
The Bible uses the word "kind", one male and one female of every kind. Mankind breaks kinds into different categories. So I'm thinking a "Kind" would be closer to a Kingdom classification.

If you think evolution is a hoax, then dogs can't descend from wolves. You can't have it both ways.


I reckon he will say they all of the same 'kind'.

Exactly. Hence adaptation occurs, but not outside of kinds.

Returning to the Subject Line --and not all the evolution yadda yadda-- the thought of increased ignorance in our time is not so confusing. This is easily an unproven hypothesis; with an increased global population, education has simply not kept pace. I don't know what the global literacy rate is, but I'm confident there is no shortage of people on the planet with limited reading abilities.

On the 'edumacted' side of modern life we have a high tech world with it's 'social networking web' and the contemporary culture of deceit. The mud slinging bs of politics seems to have trickled down into everyday life. Intentional misinformation is rampant as half truths and invented fiction go viral on the internet and bottom feeding gossip television is provided entertainment to the gullible public.

Stupid remains fashionable as dumb people are granted celebrity status
and people continue to revel in their ignorance.

I don't know about this, where is the river sediment value in this argument of yours, UC?

The sediment adapted to the ocean floor which share the same kind.

Hm, this seems plausible, but I need more evidence.

Oh, pretty pictures! I like those pictures, especially how you can't see more than 4,500 years worth of sediment on a *MAP* or indeed on the Ocean surface either. :lol: Although personally I'd be more impressed by the map itself if it was 4,500 years old! If ancient civilisations could produce such incredibly detailed maps, then the cartography of the time was truly peerless! :mrgreen:

BBS, I need more evidence. Please figure out how this works into your evidence:

That map was made by a follower of Satan; therefore, it must be dismissed.

I already provided sufficient evidence for my current claim which may change without any acknowledge whatsoever. If you disagree, it's because your faith in science has led you astray from the Truth.

Andy, may I humbly suggest that you try standing the right way up, on your feet? Or at least try aiming your body so that your head points at the sky and not the ground, instead of hanging from a tree branch by your tail. ;)
