:::::: You're right, it does. And the mistake is your time estimate for [[Exodus]]. As taught in my class, it is widely accepted that Exodus occurred either in the 1200s or 1400s B.C. See [[World_History_Lecture_One#Egypt]]. A doubling in population every 30 years for a 1000 years would be roughly 2^30, or a billion, far more than is needed.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 21:29, 11 August 2010 (EDT)

== Adam and Eve, Abel and Cain ==
Sorry to ask this, but the "population" argument brought to mind an old thought which I am sure has been answered many times. I am not saying that it is a "counterexample" to the Bible, mind you, I am just curious as to what the official refutation of this argument is... sorry to bother with such a silly question :) Now, God created Adam and Eve, and then Adam and Eve generated Abel and Cain, two males. So, where did the rest of the human population come from? Thanks for clearing this up for me :) --[[User:MarcoT2|MarcoT2]] 21:35, 11 August 2010 (EDT)
