I love to discuss it,, I learned alot when people in my past said things I could not answer, and had to research it.. It is why I changed my vies on some things.
Sadly, discussing prophesy/earths age, and flood are the most heated topics in cc. thats why I do nto go in them to much. usually after a few days, they are so destroyed they are not worth it any more.. we will see what happens with this one.

I'm sure the Pharisees had a hand in destroying things as well, it doesn't forbid learning of history and it doesn't forbid learning science either.
The ark is a prime example, it takes engineering to build a ship that can float properly, a properly designed and laid keel is very important to it construction. Yet scripture only mentions a short detail account.

I believe it was worldwide - it covered the face of the earth - and the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the "face of the earth" both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; . . . Gen. 6:7
And all "flesh" died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth, and every man: ALL in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. Gen 7:21-22
. . . at the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated. And the ark rested in the seventh month on the seventeenth day of the month upon the mountains of Ararat. And the water decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month on the first day of the month were the tops of mountains seen. Gen 8:3b-5
And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth. Gen. 8:11
And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth . . . and in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried. Gen. 8:13
The thing that amazes me is that Noah and his family with all those animals were on that ark for 1 year and 10 days!!!!

Yea I just read on it, the Russians call it Noah's water, though the only I'd say somewhat misleading is the claim that scienctist think the earths deep crust is dry and rocky and has no water, now that maybe true years ago but today's science no longer supports the dry and waterless theory. Science says the whole universe is made up of around 70% hydrogen. would make since to me that the earth is hydrogen as well in various forms on top of and within it. rain drops and evaporation is still water but in different forms.
