"A helicopter made a precarious rescue at one of the camps down the mountain. It did not land on top."

I've seen pictures of one of the base camps used by those trekking up Everest. It has an airstrip.
Now, looking at pictures of that airstrip a few interesting things came to mind:
1. It had a very short runway--almost looked like Ultra-lights should be using it, rather than full size aircraft.
2. The runway sloped downward and ended on a cliff. The only way to take off was to go downhill off the cliff.
3. There was a *lot* of aircraft wreckage on either side of the runway ( probably decades worth ). Some of it looked like it was pushed off to the side.

'Precarious' is an interesting word to describe it, lol.
29,000 feet is an awfully high service ceiling for a helicopter, I would think.

A person like yourself that believes that we all came from a single celled organism should not label people of faith empty headed.

Most of us were something called a "zygote" at one time.

Really, what is on Mt.Ararat that would be considered "classified"? The only answer that comes to my mind is that there are scientists and archeologists that do not want Noah's Ark found.

A very good explanation comes to my mind for classifying any and all satellite reconnaissance pictures – attempting to keep secret the capability of the imaging.

[R. Scott]

Finding Noah's ark couldn't possibly do the theory of evolution any good.

How’s that? The Great flood happened only around 7,000 – 8,000 years ago according to Biblical scholars.

This pops up in the news every so often, it creates a small stir among some, then it rightly disappears. When I was out in that part of the world a Armenian Orthodox priest I befriended told me it was the ruin of a Byzantine church. A reasonable explanation from someone with better access to local data & lore then I will ever be.

[R. Scott]

Only if you can explain how Noah and his family kept two of every wild animal and 7 of every domesticated animal on a boat 450 feet long by 75 feet wide for 8 months.

The only explanation I have heard is that most were in suspended animation for the duration.

The Yetis know where it is.
But they're not allowed to say.

And that's just abominable.

Evolutionism requires gigantic spans of time, actually quadrillions and octillions of years if you figure population genetics and J.B.S. Haldane into it.

Back again dumb as a stump with a thing you couldn't defend on a previous thread. But I can't say you're doing creation science wrong. You seem to be doing about average.

"gigantic spans of time, actually quadrillions and octillions of years if you figure population genetics and J.B.S. Haldane "

not as gigantic as you might think. You forget the massive parallelism that is inherent in genetics

[dljordan]

I believe the Sumerians had the same exact story recorded on their clay tablets long before the old testament was written down.

LOL!

Quadrillion, Octillion, JBS Haldane Red Herring Alert

A post you forgot to answer earlier. Maybe do it on that thread to spare this one from becoming a later verion of that one?

That's the problem with creationist Back-Again-Dumb-As-A-Stump-ism: every thread becomes every previous thread.

Clever.

Has nothing to do with evolution.

You had a reptilian multipart jawbone and now you have a single mandible and multiple earbones.

Coincidence?

You had a tail.

Coincidence?

There just would seem to be no stopping your irrepressible enthusiasm.
