Proving the Bible (1): Carbon 14 Dating

No no, we are not talking about the number of animals, we are talking about the number of animal kinds.

We can trap two people in a box and open it after a thousand years to find they've multiplied to a million people, that wouldn't be shocking because afterall they are still humans. But if we traped two humans and came to open the box after 6000 years and find a million humans, a million donkeys, a million rats and a million monkeys, now that would be shocking.

The thing with the ark story is that, they want us to believe that 6000 years ago only less than 7000 species entered the ark but they've now magically evolved into the millions of species we observe today in just that short span of time.

Ok so where did all the "races" come from?

Kwanza there's only one race, the human race. This race business imeletwa thanks to the evolution hoax. We can all produce fertile children and the DNA differences between the different groups are actually insignificant.

Some scientists have us believe that since we look different then it must have taken thousands of years to produce the differences. This assumes that the differences between the groups are caused by "unique traits" in our genes which others lack.

But this isn't the case.

For example we have different skin colours which is simply caused by the amount of melanin. We all have the same genes for producing melanin, but we differ in the "potential" to produce melanin, caused by the variations in those genes that we all have.

The more the melanin, the darker the skin, and vice versa. Which is also affected by sunlight. The more time spent in the sun, more melanin produced.

Melanin is what causes different eye colors as well. More melanin, brown eyes. Little melanin, blue eyes.

Melanin is also what causes different hair colors. More melanin, black and brown hair. Less melanin, blonds and all. Red hair is a mutation in the genes producing melanin.

Another example, Asian eyes. What makes them different is that they have more fat around them. But we all have fat in our eyes. There's no unique gene for their eyes.

So all the information for the various differences were present in the eight people in the ark.

Since after some years their children eventually separated to different places isolating the gene pool, gene shuffling in the isolated gene pool caused the differences we see today, t
(the differences became more prominent with successive generations.)

Environmental adaptation also caused some characteristics to be more prominent in some areas.

For example dark skin blocks vitamin D absorption that's needed for calcium absorption for strong bones. So in areas with little sunlight, dark skinned individuals did not survive well. They developed diseases like rickets causing slow growth and bone fractures.

Certain groups lost the ability to have children of certain skin tones because they their groups lost the "potentials".

If we were to go back to the first groups before they separated, we might find a very different looking types of people! Mzungu skin with African hair, with Chinese eyes!



Mwanzo 9:19 BHN

Hao ndio watoto watatu wa Noa, na kutokana nao watu walienea duniani kote.
 
How did all the species come from the 7000 animals?

So as we know according to Genesis, God created animals and plants in different kinds. Species (a man made concept whose definition is still being debated) are variations in a particular kind.

Kinds is a broader category, it may contain multiple species. For example horses, zebras and donkeys are different species of the equid kind.

Kinds are actually the boundaries within which animals can reproduce. A zebra can produce with a donkey (zonkey), a dolphin with a whale (wholphin), a tiger with a lion (liger), though some have lost the ability to produce with certain species of their kind (i.e reproductive isolation, caused by among other factors, geographical isolation).

(Check Baraminology: study attempting to classify fossils and living organisms according to their baramins i.e kinds).

So God instructed to keep seven pairs (i.e 14 animals) of the each clean kind, one pair of each unclean kind and seven pairs of every kind of bird.

The bible says every animal who breathed with nostrils died in the flood.

Noah did not have to bring insects because they could survive, they breath through their skin. He could've taken the delicate ones like butterflies and moths.

He also didn't take in marine animals, they could survive.

Now, there are fewer than 1.8 million recorded species. 98% of those are plants, fish species and non animals like bacteria, leaving out 34,000 land dependent animal species.

When estimating kinds in the ark, whenever data is insufficient, animals are split in different kinds rather than lumped together in one, thus keeping up with the worst case scenario.

It's likely also that Noah took young animals and smaller versions in the different kinds because they'd have taken less space, eat less, less waste, easier to manage, more resilient, and they'd have more time to reproduce after the flood.

So the researchers have estimated 1,400 animal kinds in the ark (and have prospects of decreasing the number with further research), accounting to less than 7000 land animals, from whose gene pool (genetic potential) produced the different variations of the kinds with different color, size, behavior etc.

For example these different species of the Ensantina salamanders in the Pacific Coast are separated by valleys, they look different but when they meet they interbreed, showing they are of the same kind.



Brown bears and polar bears are classified as different species but when they happen to meet, they produce healthy offspring.



African leopards and South American jaguars as well.



Kuna Hawa Eastern na Western meadowlarks classified as different species. They are very similar but they rarely mate in the wild, but in the lab they do! They don't mate because they prefer different habitats and have different mating songs. But clearly they're of the same kind!




Many "species" still hybridize to date, especially when brought to captivity, showing they're of the same kind.

To get the current number of species of land dwelling vertebrates from the original kinds in the ark, we need to only double the number, a practical process based on observable science.

Artificially bred animals (mostly dogs, cattle, hamsters) illustrate well the concept of genetic potential. It's an observable process of an exaggerated rate of variation (for example most dog breeds have been created in only the last 200years!)

 


About plants, the bible shows that 9months after the flood started, which is 4 months (128 days) after the ark rested on the mountain, a dove came back with a leaf, meaning plants had already started growing.

Remember the world (including mountains) didn't flood at once, it would have taken many weeks for all areas to flood.

Many seeds can still germinate even after being soaked in salt water for 140 days, an experiment done by the father of the hoax himself, Darwin!

Many plants could've survived on/as floating debris, which could be regrown after the water dried up, or experienced "asexual budding" i.e offspring plant growing from a piece of the parent plant.

Seeds could float with the floating animals carcasses too and later germinate (another experiment by Darwin).

Plus the ones they planted after they came out. The bible says he planted vineyards.

Are you satisfied with the answers?

If you've "more" questions not relating to these three, please don't ask!!!!
