Attempting to use a flawed model of population dynamics in order to get the facts to fit your hypothesis.

That's laughable on two obvious levels. *chuckling*

Also, there is no consideration to times when the population experienced massive decreases due to the plagues, like the "black death" that wiped out...30%???...of Europe's population.

now to enjoy myself by trying to get an answer as to how that method was even remotely honest, or meant to convince anyone bar the converted, uneducated, and halfwits

BTW, if anyone feels like joining in in the quest for an answer, it would both amuse me, and be appreciated by me.

I went and read the thread--what a piece of work. Having been proved wrong 10 different ways, all he can do is retreat to "I believe in Jesus and you're going to Hell." These people are Christianity's own worst enemies.

My favorite way to refute the "population argument" is to start with two cockroaches in Columbus, Ohio in 1973 (I knew at least that many....) and apply the same sort of exponential growth curve to their population. I think you'd find that the "cockroach kind" couldn't have been created that long ago - more like mid-2002?
