    @Jam: Please tell us in your words, what did God accomplish.

    Salvation for us who believe in Christ. Having to live forever ( caution : NOT IN THE SUPPOSED JW PARADISE) . Free from the power of death and the power of the law which no man is able to obey. And the best thing is you dont have to do anything. Just believe, how hard can it be?

    @smmcroberts:I guess he foreknew that only Noah and his family were worth saving. The Bible tells us that Noah was a man "perfect in his generations". If that was true, then -- using the same logic as for Adamic sinful inheritance -- all of Noah's offspring (including you and I) would be perfect as well! But how did Noah become perfect when he was decended from imperfect Adam? That blows away the theory of Adamic sinful inheritance.

    Well except that Noah died right? yep, well all die, doesnt matter if you are regarded perfect or not you just have to die at some point, that is the power of sin over us inherited from Adam. Now Christ being born of God, perfect but still died just like any mortal man.

    This is where it all starts afresh for us, God's plan to make all new, its because of Christ's sacrifice that we can hope to live forver, free from the bondage of the law and death, and from all the sinful lusts of this flesh.

    any evidence i would ever give would be from the bible so i don't think there is any need. And most of those other stories were just knock offs from the bible.

    So the bible is the only ancients texts you would equate to telling the Truth about god ( your specific god )

    You know there were many ancient civilizations that existed prior to the cultural existence of the ancient Judeans/Israelites . " your God "

    Since there's no mention of your particular god from these predating civilizations that would therefore invalidate your god ....sorry

    The tectonic plates could not have moved that quickly.

    But god magic could.

    The ark couldn't logistically support the humans and that amount of animals and their food and drink needs.

    But god magic could.

    Saltwater fish would have been killed by that volume of fresh water running into the oceans.

    God magic could protect them.

    Chinese people were drinking beer and making paper 1000 years before Adam was supposed to have lived.

    That evidence is bad devil magic.

    ad infinitum ad nauseum

    most people seem to forget that science it not absolute, it has never been and never will be, perhaps you should go back and find out how many theories have been proved an disproved over just a short time.

    Yeah, the fact that science NEVER offer absolutes is really great, isn't it?

    Unless you're another one of those who prefers impossibles offered as absolute certainties, vs probablities offered with an honest assessment of the risks?

    One can see that religionists diverge themselves from things like knowledge, evidence, facts, logic,

    rational based unbiased inquiry and intellectual honesty.

    Rather they have things for more important to them to which they feel the need to strongly support,

    their own salvation from their personal sins ....... Yuck
