Do you understand the difference between assertions and evidence?
Don’t attempt to belittle me. As an RF moderator, you should be above such behavior.
But to answer your question…. Yes.
Evidence is what we find through observation. Facts. (Which is what I presented.)
Assertions can have no factual basis. But assertions can also be explanations or interpretations of presented facts. Again, like the facts I provided, those details we’ve discovered.
What level of science education did you achieve in school? Serious question.
I’m not here to brag about my degrees, but probably further than you did. Probably further than most.
Serious answer.
You made assertions about how a global Flood would explain some facts, with zero evidence that it actually did produce said facts.
It does explain them. And it did produce the data we find.
As far as what we
don’t find….it was a *
controlled* event, as I stated earlier in this thread (i.e., divinely inspired). It achieved its purpose.
From where, do you think,
did all of the diverse and varied legends — the Norse, Roman, Hindi, and numerous unrelated others — get their
one common idea of their respective gods ‘sleeping with human women’? (Zeus begetting Hercules, for example). That
common thread is found in the brief historical description provided in Gen. 6:1-4, “the sons of the True God began to notice the daughters of men…..they went taking wives for themselves,
all whom they chose.”
These sons of God were later described at 2Pet.2:4 as “the angels that sinned,” the ones mentioned in Jude vs.6 who “forsook their proper dwelling place.”
These once angelic creatures, using their FreeWill, chose to rebel too, and became
the demons, fellow cohorts of Satan.
It
also explains why the Flood had to be a global one: a localized one would not have accomplished God’s purpose….and it doesn’t fit the narrative, anyway.
I don’t think I’ve wasted my time…Oh, I know it probably won’t sway
you. But I posted these details for others to read; maybe
they’ll see how it all fits, & appreciate the explanations.
Wish you the best.
