Nevertheless, you overlook still another thing: God gives explicit warnings, and equally explcit instructions, to certain people when and as He pleases. He did this in [[Noah]]'s case, again in [[Abraham]]'s case, and then in [[Moses]]'s case, in which He gave far more detailed instructions for an amazingly intricate building project: the [[Tabernacle]] and all its furnishings. And then there is [[Jesus Christ]] Himself, Whose very ministry was a miracle.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 08:22, 29 October 2009 (EDT)

:Thanks for the reply.
:Can you substantiate the claim that humans and other animals lived longer life spans in the past? The bible obviously doesn’t count because its verisimilitude is highly questionable. I ask because the current scientific understanding at least as far as humans are concerned is that life expectancy has steadily increased with time rather than decreased.
:Anything that could not be repeated by humans using the same technology as was available at the time in question is a miracle/magic. All the animals moving to the ark and not killing each other as they assembled are certainly magical or miraculous.
:If true randomness cannot exist then how can free will exist? Also can you substantiate that this universe contains properties that might be associated with a god?
:As for my questions being answered I cannot find that in the essay or the article, particularly the parasite question and the point about specialised food supplies (koala bears). Also I’d like to add another question – If Noah and his family of 8 were the only human survivors then how come such a population bottleneck is not shown in human DNA evidence?
