Reference source for the correction?

Originally posted by SuzianneThanks, again.
Well, judging from my inexact polling numbers, a shocking number of those who believe in the veracity of the Bible do not understand that it was a lot more than simply "two of every animal" on board the ark. I doubt the scientists took it into account, no.
I would guess, however, that that number would safely leave plenty of room for those animals onboa ...[text shortened]... ter all, they were on the ark nearly a year waiting for the waters to abate and the land to dry.

I think it's great that theists often proclaim that science is false, guesswork, wishful thinking, trying to minimize god and/or corrupted, except when science can be used to strenghten their preconceived notions. Then they like to use "science" to their advantage.

I respect your right to an opinion. Would you prefer that the "bunch of idiots" thought and acted exactly like Ullr?

basics about the book your faith is based on. Shocking!
Originally posted by wolfgang59There's new bible doctrine, rationales and applications to learn every day; otherwise a believer's growth to maturity is stunted. I care greatly about God's evaluation of my thoughts and deeds. Human criticisms I leave in His hands.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyBang goes your often mentioned claim to be engaging in "an honest conversation between friends".

You outsource responding to the bits of the "honest conversation" that you don't like or that are inconvenient to God?

Noah's ark is nonsense. Did these so-called scientists explain how the insects and arachnids could survive under 5 miles deep of water ? The pressure would flatten them all. With the supposed ferocity of the rain little could survive on the surface of the water. The 'flood" fable is a retelling of the Babylonian flood fable of Ut-Napishtm ( a story which was carved in stone 1500 years before the Hebrew fable was said to have taken place).
