@moonbus saidAnother embarrassing fact is that the earth is billions of years old. God had lots of time to put different creations that lasted a few hundred thousand years, then kill them off with a meteor or two, or a flood, and start over.
Embarrassing facts such as where Neandertals and Denisovans came from. We find their fossil remains and their tools and cave paintings; we must assume that they really lived--they were not created fossils.
The most interesting fact [for me] is that there there is life, created by God, in every single galaxy, and there are billions of them. Each galaxy has billions of stars and planets. There is no point in creating a galaxy without life.
@divegeester saidThere [so spelled] are no fairies in the fairy story of Hänsel und Gretl either. 😛
It’s not a “fairy story”, their are no fairies, pixies, elves in it.
@moonbus saidThis one is an old one. They missed the boat?
We know very well what happened to dinosaurs: they died out after a rogue asteroid struck the Earth, which sent up a plume of dust and ash which darkened the planet for several years and interrupted photosynthesis, about 66 million years ago.

PS there was no Noah's Ark either. It's a fairy story.

However, my sources tell me that the unicorns were actually on the boat, but because of the close quarters and not much room to move around, they kept poking the other animals in the rear with their long horn. The ones that were being poked consistently, reported it to Noah. Since the poking did not stop, Noah finally got fed up with the complaints, and threw the 2 unicorns overboard. Evolution took pity on the poor creatures and tuned them into whales, to assure their survival.

@divegeester saidSo now you're gonna rag on people for not answering your stupid question? This is what people in the Debates Forum do.
The only theist (so far) to offer an explanation is rajk999. Quite an interesting one too.
