→‎Animal Migration: Bacteria are still bacteria, timescales, and ice age history.
Line 294: Line 294:  
Well the animals have been dated to have lived since just after the last ice age. So over 10,000 years old easily although again you have a different dating method. What I would like to know is why there are no records of the ice age in the bible or anywhere else from around the period of time after Noahs Arc?

:"''But you do! Bacteria evolve into different types of bacteria...''".  When I said that you don't see it evolve into something else, I mean something that is no longer bacteria.  Creationists accept that living things have a range of adaptability, but not that they can create new genetic information and become something entirely different, ''which is what evolution requires to go from the first living thing to the vast variety we have today''.  There is a "change in genetic material", but no new genetic [[information]].
 +
:"''What assumptions do you base your timescale on then?''".  That the Bible is an accurate historical record.
 +
:"''When the agricultural revolution began before god created the world ...''".  Only according to the timescale connected to the theory which denies God.
 +
:"''I still fail to see why you doubt such dating methods, because even if they are hundreds of thousands of years off, even millions of years, the earth is still a lot older then the bible says it is.''".  But not if they are off by hundreds of millions of years (or whatever the case may be).  I doubt them because (a) they conflict with the reliable historical record of the Bible, and (b) because they have been shown to be unreliable when tested on rocks of known age, as well as inconsistent with each other in some cases.

:"''What I would like to know is why there are no records of the ice age in the bible or anywhere else from around the period of time after Noahs Arc?''".  Have a read of [[ice age]] and see that there are likely references in the Bible.
