You have said a lot about how the bible has mathematic and scientific parts to it. Can you please supply some examples? |
You need to get past the Spaghetti Monster example lusta'.
You also need to stop trying to argue about a subject that you have absolutely no knowlege of.
Example Combining Mathematics and Science:
The specifications to build Noah's Ark.
Nautical science assumed Noah's ark to be an insane myth. For centuries, it was considered fact that one couldn't possibly build a wooden ship exceeding 300feet in length - it just wouldn't be able to take the stress of the open sea. There where a few clippers built as long as 330 - but that's still dwarfed by the over 400 foot ark. This perception remained the decided ruling - until someone built a scale ark and tested its seaworthyness.
Since then dozens of scale arks have been built by assorted groups and tested in wave pools (the same way they test a modern ship's capability).
The results showed that the Ark's design was 13 times more stable than the current safety rules require - many modern ships can't make that claim. The ark's structural safety ratings where off the charts - it would have been able to withstand down forces from well over 200 foot waves.
If you'd like more details on the study look for: "Noah's Ark: A Feasibility Study" In this particular study - they used 13 hull variations to test all possible versions - all but 1 met or exceeded expectations.
