The incredible, edible egg!

Funny how they insist that the flood literally happened and Noah literally took every 'kind' (whatever the hell that is) of animal on the ark, but when it's pointed out to them how absurd that is they try to come up with stuff like this to explain how everything fits. Oh well, I suppose when you base your life around an irrational belief you come up with irrational rationalizations...

Isn't all this what gives all the entertainment value you get out of fundies?

Noah's Ark must land in the Evolution-Creationism forum. (This might be Humor, but I don't actually see the joke.)

It's silly to think that any animal were carried in Noah's ark inside their eggs. There are a lot of troubles in that. First, those shock-proof egg boxes were not invented at that time (was that the real cause of the dino's extinction?); I personaly think, that unlikely crocs and turtles, dinos have their sexes defined by chromossomes, rather than temperature under development in the egg, so they could not know if the 2 eggs of each dino were really a male and a female, and they must be sure of that, because homossexuality is sin, even between dinos. And also there's the trouble that with orphan dinosaur babies, they would not know how to be a dino (other possible cause of the extinction?).

The best explanation is that dinos, and all the animals were carried in poké-balls. Aquatic reptiles like ichtyosaurs and plessiosaurs are extinct because there were not enough poke-balls, when they were going to save these aquatic animals from the flood, the balls were over.

Also the poké-balls scenario don't deny evolution, so is according to science.

the poké-ball scenario also takes into account punctuated equilibrium too, which is basically like a pikachu evolving into a raichu, so it fits really well

hahahahaha raichu hahahaha

the only cool things to out of Pokemon were: Team Rocket, Meouth (sp?), Pikachu saying "pika pika" (SO cute!), maybe Psyduck, and the South Park episode mocking Pokemon. Everything else was LSD-induced drivel.

Ah, the great prophet Satoshi Tajiri and his "book" of Pokemon. Yes, the balls would explain most of the story as long as the rapid "evolution" to other forms is allowed to differ for a given starting pokemon according to environmental circumstances (ie to get the bushy nature of punctuated equilibrium). Noah and his family would then presumably be the first pokemon trainers. The food and storage problem on the ark is almost completely eliminated by the pokemon explanation. However, there is still the recovery of the landscape and plants to consider. Perhaps that can be resolved by reference to one of the "books" of SimCity.

A plough abd a 'tater patch,
Eggs that are gonna hatch,
Someday....."

Remarkable is it not, the lengths that a believer will go to support a myth.

And when you come right down to it, an egg is pretty much a natural poke-ball.

I have a pokemon right here in my living room; a large, quite pretty African puff adder (Bitis arietans) named 'Jigglypuff' by the grandkids.
