  I am trying to think of the scientific stuff I've heard . I think they call it the x and y chromosome , let's say the y is for female , they said something like there is far more y than x so it increases the likely hood of female over male at the time of conception.

  The 3 month pregnancy is just a theory I've been toying around with ( don't anyone panic here) lol . who the hell knows for sure what things were like prior to written history .

  I just find it hard to believe in these ice age theories myself .

  Well geez, where have you been? There have been many scientific articles on them. Maybe a good starting point would be alan's treatise on them: http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Academy/6040/flood01.htm

  Heathen,

  We know for certain that females are more likely to be born than males

  You probably went to the only university in the world that has books supporting your "fact". The opposite is true. More males than females are born. The reason that there are more women than men in this world is that in reality, biologically speaking, women are stronger. Except for gonococcal infections and whooping cough, men are more likely than women to die from any illness.

  and males were allowed to have more than one wife

  Yeah, also only one male per thousand females was born, they were able to conceive as soon as they were born, and they had a hundred babies per day; like Lillith, Adam's first wife. Does this work for you?

  Let's make the bible work!

  Maybe Yah put some Viagra in Noah's grandchildren's food.

  Heathen,

  Here in Indiana, there is a wealth of evidence of the ice age. Indiana is broken almost in half topigraphically. The Northern half is flat as a pancake, while the southern half (where I live) is hilly and forested.

  Along highway 37, is the line of demarkation. It is where the glacier stopped during the ice age. It cut a path straight through the limestone belt, and people come from all over the world to study and collect the fossils from the limestone cliffs. You can see them, feel them, study them, take them home and ponder their signifigance.

  When you see it, it is undenyable, and real. I would love to take you fossil hunting, it is alot of fun, I am sure you would get "hooked"!

  About the three month pregnancy thing....Human beings are just too complicated to be produced that quickly, just couldnt happen.

  The deal with the stories in the bible is you have to put God into your theories and when you do that anything is possible . So 3 months noone can say for sure I just made that up as an illustration to who the hell knows ? I would love to check the fossil thing out but still don't think it proves an ice age as I said before the flood waters could have performed the same kind of results as a glacier taking hundreds of thousands of years but in alot shorter time . Is there a site showing the fossil finds of indiana?

  I am not sure heathen. I will look around and see, ok?

  As a side note, I wonder if the biblical flooding, could be old explainations of the glaciers melting. That would be a reasonable possibility IF there were glaciers in the Middle East. (I will have to do some searching for the answer to that one).

  I believe the Great Lakes are big puddles from melting glaciers if I am not mistaken. Anyways, I will look for some sites for you, Heathen.

  for intstance we don't know how long it took for a pregnancy to term out it may have been 3 months

  The only way this could be true was if they were doing it doggie style.

  Let me see if I have this correct here , you people find it easier to believe that man evolved from an atom then for the possiblity that human genetics have been altered to suit an all powerful being and his plans for man to subdue the earth ? Well !!!!!!! I am speechless . All I am stating are alternative possibilities , I am not saying this is something that the bible says or that I take it as a serious belief and so should others .

  BTW simon , I think that is an interesting site even tho I do believe that most creationists sound like idiots , I do like to see what the latest arguments are .
