1. I see grass all around.
2. The Jews were covered by the clouds, it wouldn't make sense for the animals not to be. The clouds cleared out everything, bushes, cactus, grass, Neut's bridge, everything.

Christian doctrine should be taught, all else should be banned and only referred to as pagan and heretical.

I feel bad for all those humans with all that bloat. I mean, they would not even be able to get rid of the waste that cells always need to get rid of. Plus...pretty sure the babies would need to poop given they where not eating manh.

An opinion can't be wrong.


When facts rather specifically stand against that opinion, it most assuredly can be wrong.

Wrong. Technical science does not have anything to do with cosmology or theoretical biology.

You obviously know nothing of technology. Which is good, since it is heretical.

Only micro-evolution has been proven anyway. The Bible does not speak of "species" it speaks of "kinds" which would correspond to something like family in modern taxonomy. A dog type creature will not "evolve" into a cat type creature, they change a little bit depending on environment, but it remains within a definite span of possible shapes and abilities.

It doesn't matter. When you leave a giant mark on the landscape, some trace of it will remain. Clouds, especially in a desert, would change the composition of the rocks they covered, if nothing else.

Let's of course not ignore that evolution is also directly related to controlling and treating various diseases. It is why it is so hard to treat HIV and also why we have to worry bout antibiotic resistant diseases like TB.

Nope, they both evolved from an undifferentiated caniform, that looked something like a weasel.

Radiowaves, optic cables for that speedy internet, nuclear power plants, solar panels - all those technologies have implications for the age of the earth.
Unless you are not a young earth creationist those would be heretic.
