Talking Re: Creationism versus Evolution

Interesting view of the world in biblical times West Ender. It could well be right. However as the flood was supposed to have covered the mountains to a depth of 15 cubits it is difficult to accept that the rest of the world wouldn’t have been affected also. To the north west is the Mediterranean Sea with an opening to the Atlantic, to the south is the Red Sea with an opening to the Indian Ocean/Pacific Ocean and to the east is the Persian Gulf also emptying into the Indian Ocean. The Zargos Mountains in Persia peak at some 9,000 feet and much of the land in the Middle East is some 1,000 feet above sea level. That's an awful lot of water to stay put in the Middle East.

But it is a myth that Noah took on board a breeding pair of each animal. He allegedly took on board 7 animals of a species if they were deemed to be clean animals and only a breeding pair of those animals that were classed as unclean.

OK! I hold my hand up Muslim children do attend Christian schools. But how many Christian children attend Muslim schools?

However we seem to have slid off the topic.
