Soooo glad to see another of your creation stories. I know it is difficult to check historical data, but the Bible is historically correct in everything that we have been able to verify. Not one inconsistency to date. While this may not prove the story of Genesis scientifically, it certainly lends credence to the possibility that it may be devinely inspired writing.
"Genesis and the Big Bang" and "The Science of God" are two good books on the subject by Dr. Gerald L. Schroeder" former MIT prof. and now teaching (last I heard) in Jerusalem.
How do you know that a turtle didn't bring up mud after the flood, or Coyote and Eagle didn't create people? You are choosing your beliefs about creation over the beliefs of others, when you have the same scientific basis for them as they do (i.e., none).
Uh huh. So sometime about 4,000 years ago the entire earth was covered by a great flood? So where are the mass extinctions, sediment layers, etc... to show any evidence of this? How come we have any genetic diversity at all if we are all the relatively recent decendents of Noah? That's more than a little inconsistent. Even Coyoteman's story is more plausible.
