I have no problem keeping up with you; you’re the one who admitted having difficulties.

No, we just adhere to the Biblical account, so we’re not going to postulate a natural explanation for something the Biblical account already gave us an explanation for. Pretty simple really.

No, it’s a natural tendency for people to ridicule positions they otherwise have no logical defense against.
Quote: I mean, it's cute when a six-year-old tells a story and has a magic butterfly swoop down from nowhere to save the plot from crashing; but a grown adult? For shame!
That’s an irrelevant analogy. We live in a Universe governed by the Creator, you cannot avoid His involvement.

Why do you insist on misrepresenting my position? The Biblical account (which is what I am arguing for) clearly states that God was miraculously involved in several aspects of the ark account. I hate to break it to you, but Donkeys don’t naturally talk either lol.

In your next post? Most likely, if you bother actually responding that is.
