The FLOOD of Noah and the growing evidence.

Your gonna need a source for that fat one.
Here is a modern explanation of strata formation even during very recent tsunami. The FLOOD of Noah's time was far, far worse and also likely occurred in stages leading to multiple tsunami that covered vast areas.
 
I am sorry, but I cannot believe the Noah story

i think there was a local flood, and Noah somehow managed to save some of his cattle
The Noah story is absurd on every level and completely discredited by actual modern science.
 
The 10 Commandments says that there are other gods but you are not permitted to obey them.



Bible Hub


yes, there are other gods.............like trees, volcanoes, Zeus, Odin, etc..,............................BUT, ONLY ONE TRUE GOD.

Not only are we forbidden to obey them, we are also forbidden to WORSHIP them!

We know beyond doubt that at no point in the 4.5 billion year history of the earth, was it ever completely covered in water.
 
The flood of Noah and the growing evidence……for literal growing evidence perhaps we should consider trees…..a growing thing. The oldest trees on earth were up and growing way before the biblical date for the creation of the earth…..along with the creation of beer and wine and a plethora of other evidence. It is difficult to accept the creation story as anything other than a mythical construct…..that story can have meaning on a different level of understanding but cannot be viewed as literal truth IMO……

Well!!!! The oldest tree is named Methuselah and is a Great Basin bristlecone pine, located in California's White Mountains, estimated to be around 4,855 years old. That would make it younger than Biblical Creation.

I'm sorry, but I cannot believe life was not CREATED and that this all just happened without meaning...

Reality and science doesn't care what you believe. As Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson once said, "The good thing about science is, it's true whether or not you believe in it."

Check out the Jurupa oak….
 
Check out the Jurupa oak….
The Jurupa oak is a clonal colony of Palmer's oaks, with new stems and root systems continually emerging from an extremely old, extensive root system that is estimated to be 13,000 years old. I might suggest that these are pre-Flood but likely because of that their real age is hard to distinguish because of FLOOD contamination.
 
It's a mathematical deduction based on geneologies................. duh?


The geneaologies are all in mainstream reputable versions. The ones used by scholars.
Ignoring the reality that the Bible as written has been edited and rewritten a number of times?
 
Can you explain how the Bile knows about the water under the earth/ocean floor...............which ended up covering the whole earth in the great flood?

This hidden water, 3x the size of all oceans combined, have only been recently discovered.















The verse


Genesis 7:11
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day
all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.


The "GREAT DEEP," takes on a whole new meaning. It wasn't referring to the ocean that we see!
It could be referring to the massive ocean below!

Just out of curiosity, what do you think the globe would look like if all the ice on the surface of the globe melted?
 
There's no growing evidence.
It all disappear thousands of years ago.

If there ever was any evidence in the 1st place.
 
Ignoring the reality that the Bible as written has been edited and rewritten a number of times?
The Old Testament is available in Hebrew, and has not been edited or rewritten when compared to the Dead Sea Scrolls that date back to the time of JESUS CHRIST.

Likely huh?

Sounds like you don't know...
The Old Testament is available in Hebrew, and has not been edited or rewritten when compared to the Dead Sea Scrolls that date back to the time of JESUS CHRIST.
Why can't you just tell the truth? While it is substantially the same, changes have been made in translation, textual variation and language evolution from the Dead Sea Scrolls. You could have said that it was substantially unchanged, but instead you double down on a demonstrably false statement. Pretty sure one thing hasn't changed, the 9th Commandment.

do you think that Odin and Zeus exist?


No.
They're man-made.

God calls them "other gods," not because they're real......................but because, they were/are worshipped and believed to be gods by people who worship them.



There is only ONE TRUE GOD, in the context that there is only One REAL GOD.
Satan can fool believers of false gods by performing miracles thru these false gods.............but no match when pitted against GOD's (as in Pharaoh's wizards against Moses).



The ABRAHAMIC GOD had shown............. HE IS............................ THE CREATOR!
HOW?



We go full circle to the question no skeptics can answer:


HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE BIBLE CONTAINS INTIMATE INFORMATION ABOUT THE UNIVERSE - INFORMATION THAT ONLY THE CREATOR WOULD KNOW -

THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE SCIENCE DISCOVERED/CONFIRMED THEM?

You're missing the logic.




Even if you say the Bible was edited and rewritten a number of times...............


.......the fact remains the same that the information about the water is proven to mean LITERALLY!
