I'm sure you have a great answer to this Genesis only fact WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE! Except, "well , they're here aren't they?"
Truth is, not even modern man could exist, at that time, without that garden! Or, even now!
Don't they teach about this in the US. Seriously this is basic stuff.
That you guys have access to nuclear weapons is scary.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.

Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”
Wiser words were never spoken.

I am not a Christian or a Jew. My argument was about evolution, commensurability and nature(angiosperms, bees)--not God! You guys brought up God.
My girlfriend thinks I'm a stalker. Well...she's not my girlfriend "yet".
I discovered a new vitamin that fights cancer. I call it ...B9
I also invented a diet pill. It works great but had to quit taking it because of the side effects. Turns out my penis is larger and my hair grew back. And whoa! If you think my hair is nice!
When does size truly matter? When it's TOO big!
I'm currently working on a new pill I call "Destenze". However...now my shoes don't fit.

Were you referring to the Peter Gabriel or Phil Collins Genesis then?

So unless you're talking about the band or The Wrath of Khan you clearly brought Gawd up.
Your "argument" reads like:
Pilots are useless without airplanes,
And airplanes useless without pilots,
Thus Gawd must have Created both.
Go self-pollinate.

Yeah, and I'm not a killer, I just like firing .50s into the tree line.

Yes. Though most modern flowers use bees, there are and were ones that don't. Some use birds, some use wind, some use other methods.

First trees = 385 myo
First flowers = 140 myo
First bees = 130 myo
First "modern birds"/avian dinosaurs = 60 myo
First non-avian dinosaur = 160 myo
Obviously no where near "the same time".

You forgot to round up to the nearest make-believe, lost.
