If Moses had every species on his ark, then any species "discovered" today is just being re-discovered. Didn't Moses already discover it when it was on his ark.

Sorry, Noah

to Stephen J:
"Noah had every kind of animal on the Ark. We understand the term "kind" to mean an animal higher on the current taxonomic scale, such as at the genera or family levels. From those animals, mutations and separation occurred creating the different species we have today. Speciation isn't evolution. It's the result of the loss of genetic information either through mutation or being cut off from a part of the general population. After being apart from the main group of animals, a new species can arise. That isn't evolution, they simply lost access to the genes present in the rest of the animals, a loss of information. "
Actually, you described evolution exactly. But this question isn't about that.

Well the logic is Earth is no older than 4000 -5000 years according to bilbe but all the species existing on the earth are existing from millions of years so the existance and listing of these is truth Bible is fiction because if earth doesn't exist before 4000-5000 years ago where were all these living creatures.
So dont go with the fiction called bilbe ,fiction is good to read and forget ,live with facts.

Noah, built the ark, not moses. It does not say anywhere in the bible that God stopped creating species. God works in mysterious ways. We'll all figure it out when we die. The point is to have faith and keep searching for answers. You will find God in it.

When one believes in an all powerful Lord, there is nothing beyond him. If he wants to create a new bird, he can. If he wants to create a new planet, he can. If he wants to create a new galaxy, he can.
Evolution doesn't explain a new species popping up out of no where. What did it evolve from?

I like how Noah could round all these up in Palestine but we are still finding things today. Man they were smart. and there is an old book to prove it...
LOL, the biggest thumper didn't catch it.

God is the only Creator, therefore it was in God's master plan to create that bird. Modern day scientists are grasping at straws, trying to "prove" evolution.

Aside from the Moses-Noah mixup, you have a very good point.

Newspapers can say anything.
Many times they don't pay too much attention to proper English.
Newspapers are not the best source to quote.
