"What makes you able to contradict the plain meaning of scripture? Why can you and nobody else?"


Please point out the contradiction? Now given exactly what we are told about the reason for the flood, why exactly it was Noah and his family "FIT" to be saved from a flood and everything else described, how does that contradict what is given.

Do you even know why the flood? Why Noah was elected to be saved? How long exactly does it take from total and complete destruction for an olive leaf to be found?

What do you even care about the supposed plain meaning of scripture after all you are an evolutionists and doesn't even apply to you.

" Please point out the contradiction? "

In the Bible, the flood is worldwide. God is wiping out all of humanity except Noah and his family. In your revised version, other people survive too, implying the flood was not as affective as God hoped.

" Do you even know why the flood? "

I know *why the flood*; do you? It was a punishment against all of humanity except Noah and his family. Not Noah and his family and some other people who somehow survived.

"How long exactly does it take from total and complete destruction for an olive leaf to be found?"

You said that it wasn't total destruction, just local. Why does the Bible say otherwise?

"What do you even care about the supposed plain meaning of scripture after all you are an evolutionists and doesn't even apply to you."

Because it means so much to you, and that makes it important to me. :) And you are trying to use it as evidence against Darwin, even though you have issues with the actual version in Genesis.
