I think clowns are scary.

The evolution tangent has been split off and moved to E/C and, unless they merge it with the existing thread addressed to Patriarch Verlch, it can be found here.

Stick to forum-appropriate topics, folks, and that includes non-biblical discussions of Noah's Ark and/or the Great Flood. To clarify, "non-biblical discussions" are those that do not focus on what we are told in the text but, instead, focus upon the physical evidence or lack thereof.

Even the Talmud has a mention of Jesus.

So far you guys haven't gone into depth of the first link and what will you men do with this link? Taking a platform of "I don't know." About primordial soup, Is hardly grounds to move to a high mountain and attack Christendom.

Exta biblical evidence.

Wow. The same link as in the OP, repeated as if not a single bit of it had been addressed.

Got anything...I dunno...new?

Will this thread go as long as Patriot7s thread about science, history, and archeology?

I know exactly how you feel. All scholars agree that the easter bunny exists. It's only a matter of time before we find the evidence.

So you claim that the bible is inerrant, but you don't think that non believers should be able to point out errors and contradictions? Wow. In other words, we aren't allowed to suppport our position? Is your faith so flimsy that you can't bear to have it questioned?

It's not something you learn in primordial soup.

Of course evolution scientists will come up with the best explanation to tell me how language evolved. In fact he might just be coming from a meeting of scientists that vote on the best answer to each new delma facing evolutionary biology/spiritual evolution. Yep that's right folks and any information that does not fit within the context of the framework, or back bone of the Modern Synthesis, gets thrown in the garbage, right where Christian ideals are.

So bible god destroyed the tower of babel because it was close to reaching heaven? That tower must have been DAMNED tall to be greater than a modern skyscraper. I wonder what those ancients built it out of....

Which "evolution scientists" are you referring to? What field of science covers the evolution of languages? I'm pretty sure it isn't the same which covers the evolution of life forms.

You mean like invading defenseless countries and killing their people?
