Where did all the bacteria and insects come from after the flood?

Question

There is ZERO indication that god made more creation, so where did that bacteria and insects come from? Perhaps EVOLUTION? Creationists usually say that evolution violates the law of biogenesis (false, but lets assume it does), so then creationism would too after the flood.

Answer 1

Well..the larvae would have survived and been stuck to all those dead carcasses that were floating on the surface...wasn't so much evolution as it was survival of the fittest...it's hard to kill all those bugs....and their larvae...and bacteria...hey...what a breeding grounds...whewee...

Answer 2

Evolution DOES violate not only biogenesis, but the first 2 laws of thermodynamics. Not to mention all laws of mathmatical probablity.
That said, I have to say that's a good question. There's no mention of it that I am aware of. But for that matter, not a heck of a lot mentioned about micoorganisms at large. Remember 2 of every kind of animal, it's not a stretch to imagine some of them carried bacteria. It's also been theorized that a lot of the decaying of things began after the flood as well.

Answer 3

This is interesting because in a way it is proof of a God. Why did God tell the Israelites to wash their hands in RUNNING water? Germs and bacteria are invisible so if you couldn't see them there wouldn't have been any reason to make sure the water was running away from you and the camp unless a higher intellect was involved and knew about the bacteria and germs!!

Answer 4

That is a good question. My personal opinion is that God created all living things and then allowed for evolution of some species to come about as a way of adapting to the changes in environment and such that was caused by the fall of man and his subsequent misuse of the earth.

Answer 5

Maybe they came from what remained on the Ark.
