    I think, Wannabefree, has a point. Those Kangaroos can kick, and they have boxing skills as well. They also have stomach pouches that can store so many floating devices.

    WT says it wasn't until Nimrod and that whole Babel business when people actually started to create nationalities/countries?

    Gobekli Tepe is one of the oldest archaeological sites . . . 10 - 12,000 years old. The site shows a comprehensive and sophistocated system of religious worship among other things . . .

    One might also ask where all the trees and other vegetation came from.

    They don't just start growing again after all of them have been flooded completely.

    The witnesses amusingly teach that the garden of Eden and the Tree of Life were destroyed in the frlood - so it might be equally amusing to ask a witness why this did not kill all the other trees.

    I think Noah put the Kangaroos, Koala bears, and many other species only found down under on the back of a Taradactle and flew them over. Kinda like on the Flintstones.

    BroMac, are you kidding me? The Land Masses were once all one and afterward, millions of years ago it broke apart and the continents started to drift hence the term "Continental Drift". (Bty, the continents are still drifting today) Those animals who were left on the Austrailian Continent evolved into the marsupial's and other species found there today. Many other animal species found down under have been introduced by man in the last few hundred (or maybe thousands) years.

    Give your head a shake Bro.

    I hate to say it, but that Robot looks far too dumb to even be able to say "Danger - Will Robinson"...

    This is true. Pangaea is believed to have formed around 300 million years ago, with the break-up beginning 200 million years ago . . .

    It is believed the formation of supercontinents is cyclical and has occurred as much as five times throughout the earth's history.

    The forming of supercontinents and their breaking up appears to be cyclical through Earth's 4.6 billion year history. There may have been several others before Pangaea. The fourth-last supercontinent, called Columbia or Nuna, appears to have assembled in the period 2.0-1.8 Ga.[5][6] Columbia/Nuna broke up and the next supercontinent, Rodinia, formed from the accretion and assembly of its fragments. Rodinia lasted from about 1.1 billion years ago (Ga) until about 750 million years ago but its exact configuration and geodynamic history are not nearly as well understood as the later supercontinents, Pannotia and Pangaea.

    Which reminds me of another thread http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/202031/1/Tower-of-Babel-built-by-Babies

    There are a lot more fascinating factoids in the Atheists Book of Bible Stories.

    Good Point Sizemik, That would make sense that it would happen over and over again. I learned something new.
