Glenn Morton hypothesis: The Flood could ONLY have happened 5 million+ years ago

I was wondering about that jar...Are you a Christian?I know you used the label, "the Christian Cult of Ignorance," so I wasn't sure. If you are a Christian, are you saying that those who believe Genesis 1-11 is meant to be understood literally are ignorant?If so, I guess that means you believe those who read those chapters as allegory are much wiser?I participated in a few debates on this at TheologyWeb. Because of the literal, historical, biographical nature of the text, I believe it is intellectually dishonest to read the text as anything but literal. To me, the genealogies rule out allegory. I believe some of the language used could be non-literal, but not the entire narrative. That just seems absurd.I'm working on a new site CreationCrisis.com, and have the first page draft up here: OriginScience.com is for sale | HugeDomains where I'm trying to cover the various options that Christians have in interpreting Genesis 1-11.(Anyone can feel free to e-mail any thoughts on the page, since it would be off-topic here. My e-mail is on the page above. A new thread on a related topic is in the "Proposed Topics" category now.)-

I know the admins will stop us from going any further in this direction on this particular thread, but I see it as an overview and then a more detailed story. If the stories appear to be mutually exclusive, then I realize they could have come from different source material or that there could have been errors in the manuscript copying. But your view seems extreme. I DO get your point though. It's worth looking into further, and I will do just that, at some point, anyway... -
