      My guess is: “if evolution was real then why didn’t they evolve to survive like everything else? God drowned them all because they were evil”

        No it’s stupider and more complicated than that.

        There’s too much proof evolution exists, so they had to pretend that is part of God’s plan too, but it doesn’t work like science says it does.

        The Bible says Noah got 2 of every “kind” of animal. So they made up a new label for the animal Kingdom. Animals fall into different “kinds.”

        Instead of getting 2 spider monkeys, 2 capuchin monkeys, two marmosets, etc, Noah got two chimpanzees. God killed every other primate species in the world with a flood. Then all the monkeys and apes we see today evolved in the 10,000 years (6,000? I forget) since they got off the ark.

        So all the fossils from the flood are the species whose “kinds” were accounted for elsewhere.

          Only somewhat related, but can you imagine what the smell must have been like from the trillions of human and animal corpses after that flood? I’ve thought about that plot point for years, but no one else seems to.

            Biology has shown that the dying during mass extinctions has caused water to become inundated with nutrients which saw sponge populations explode. That global meat and vegetable stew is sitting out for thousands or millions of years and the odor is plastered on every available surface - what if the world still smells like death but we are all used to it?

          One of the go-to talking points is to try to differentiate “macro-evolution” and “micro-evolution.” So they can claim to be okay with things like wolves becoming domesticated dog breeds, etc…while still opposing “the lie” of evil-lution.

            That’s always a fun one. Any observable examples of transitional species is “micro-evolution” and anything they can handwave away is “macro-evolution.”

          So what animals that are alive today belong to this kind?

      Looks like it’s still for sale in some capacity on Amazon (looked it up by the ISBN). First print was 1979, so it dates itself. The sample pages are… interesting.
