If evolution is an unproven theory and doesnt hold water, can someone please explain to me how 30K species has evolved in 1.5 million species??? (BTW, the FACT of Noah's Ark was obtained directly from the Center for Creation "Science" - which also has a painting of the insides of Noah's Ark - did you know there were dinosaurs on the boat!?!?!)
Before I get the quip about this being micro-evolution and not macro evolution, allow me to remind everyone - evolution has nothing to do with reaching a higher life path or reaching higher intelligence. Evolution does not require a dog to become a speaking entity, nor does it require a whale to turn into a land mammal. In this case, I am showing that 30K species has indeed become 1.5 million species....these are distinct, recognizably differing species, not some micro-evolutionary change. Please explain.....

Come on people...are we really that stupid? Read the question AGAIN - These are FACTS and I have listed the sources of these facts...I didnt make up the 30K Species on Noah's ark! I dont even beleive the story! Im trying to elicit a response from theists to explain how evolution DOESNT happen, when there is proof right here! SHEESH!

Tangus - you are mistaken. According to the Center for Creation Science, ALL species on earth perished, including all aquatic life, as they became choked by the rising silt generated from the storm waters... And if Noah DIDNT take insect life, where did it all come from? More proof of evolution?????

Interesting point. But evolution exists regardless of some childish belief in Noah saving all the worlds animal. I'm sure the fundies will have all sorts of "it didn't flood the WHOLE world" or "not EVERY species needed to be on the Ark" and crap like that. You can't use logic to reason with people who just make stuff up as they go along.
btw, cool nickname

Finally someone who has the same point as me!
There is no possible way that a population of 30K species would just simultaniously multilply by 50! This would quite obviously take time to do, just as anything else in the world. I know that God works wonders, but it seems unrealistic to think that this could have happened without alterations, mutations, adaptations, and eventually whole new branches of animals being formed. My point is, the present could not be how it is today without the past, but the past was nothing alike now mostly because things hadn't had a chance to EVOLVE yet. I am Christian, but I believe that Evolution has obvious validity to it. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to comprhehend the theory effectively. If we did evolve from apes, which is a possibility, then I don't have a problem with that. We are the "head" subspecies in a world teaming with wild-life... Why should be be so pissed off or ashamed about being distantly related to one of the most inteligent animals in the WORLD? Faith isn't only religion, it's a dire accesory to the planet we live on, and the things that we do and say every single day.

It just proves that Noah's Ark didn't happen, at least not the way it was in the bible, yes he may have gotten is animals onto a ship and yes many of his friends may have died but there is no way you could get lions and tigers, deer and elephants to live in peace and harmoney for 40 days without them eating each other. Also genitically going down to only 2 members of a species would truely be the end of that species. I don't know where you got your facts from but I don't think that anyone could ever say for sure that there were only 30,000 species on noah's ark, or that there were dinosaurs on the ark as well but if you believe it then fine.
Anyone who is going to believe the Noah's Arc story just about has to believe in evolution, since there just wouldn't have been enough room for every species that now exists.

Just because I don't believe this world was created by evolution doesn't mean that I don't believe in evolution. I explain the idea of the world being created by evolution like a bucket of wooden blocks, it doesn't matter how many times i spill the blocks on the floor, It will NEVER turn out to be a perfect building. There is a lot of God's influence in the way things are created and that can't just be left alone to chance. The evolution I believe in is when you have species that over generations adapt to their environment creating several species from one. Thats were I draw the line. I don't believe we evolved from monkeys.

Well, look at it this way. Noah probably had two przwalski's horses that eventually became what we have today: Quarter horses, Arabs, Thoroughbreds, Welsh Ponies, Shetlands, Shires, Percherons, Clydesdales, Paints, Appaloosas, etc...etc...etc...
He probably had two wild dogs that became wolves, coyotes, other kanine species and breeds, etc...etc...etc...
I'm a Christian and I know that evolution does hold water in cases like this and I know natural selection does happen. It's common sense. A stupid deer is too stupid not to run out in front of a car. It gets killed and taken out of the gene pool. Natural Selection. Bada bing, bada boom.
However, It doesn't hold water when people say we all came from some cosmic accident. Mathematics go out of whack when you try proving we did.
Here's my view: God created birds and fish and reptiles and amphibians and people and mammals and all that jazz. Then there became different variations of these birds and fish and etc. etc. not fish becoming birds and birds becoming reptiles and whatever. There's just different breeds of whatever God originally created.
Of course, fish and whales and dolphins didn't need to be on the ark. Call me a fundie like the girl above would call me, but it's just common sense. If you put a whale on an ark, its own weight would crush itself and it would eventually suffocate and die. Goodbye Willie.

FACT: Noah's ark is a legend based on a Sumarian LOCAL flood story. It's didn't happen.
FACT: No-one knows how many land species are on earth, but even the low estimates are in the 10s of millions
FACT: 'creation science' is an oxymoron. Faith and science don't mix.

There is no such thing evolutions are real. Its just a theory, and stupid theory also. Does who believe on Darwin theory should believe they are same species as apes and monkeys, therefore act like animals.
Read carefully on this link. (If you have a brain just gain your knowledge more than one sources only)
By the way Noah's Ark are true, Believe it or not it is just the way how you think on your mind.

Noah didn't take every species on the ark. In fact, he didn't take any insects or aquatic life as they would have survived without shelter on the ark. Do the math after removing the insects and water life and see how close the number of species is.
For example: Insects account for 80% of the speices on earth.

don't you think that categorising a species is man-made? how do you really categorise a species? does 1.5 million include sub-species? sry for counter-asking, but obviously it is hard to determine the numbers exactly unless u were there. scientist try to group animals together , and developed the binomial naming system(such as Homo Sapiens). but obviously in Noah's time, this system doesnt exist yet.
and why could there not be dinosaurs? they didnt say it should be full adult sized dinos(that would be a massive waste of space) , so maybe they used young dinos. this could have be applied to the rest of the animals too.Hehe. its up to you to draw your own conclusion, whether you want to believe it or not. =)

When you combined Noak's Ark story with modern day scientific researches, that's when things started to get confused and contradicted.
You have to decide which path you want to go. If you are a Bible reader then it is better to stick with that. But if you are evolutionist, you must drop your Bible in the trash and never look back at it again.
