    Chuck Todd calling us out.

    CHUCK TODD ATTACKS TRUMP SUPPORTERS WHO BELIEVE BIBLE

    On NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday, host Chuck Todd used a Letter to the Editor published 11 months ago in the Lexington HeraldLeader to attack supporters of President Trump who believe the Bible.

    “Show me a person who believes in Noah’s ark and I will show you a Trump voter,” Todd read from the letter, written by David Bowles of Lexington, Kentucky, and published on January 15, 2019 to set up his questioning of New York Times editor Dean Baquet and Washington Post editor Martin Baron.

    With that, I recommend Ark Encounter. Bring friends and family.

    Also visit the nearby Creation Museum.

    Apparently these kick out Trump voters by the thousands! :Thumbsup

    The account of Noah and the ark is accepted by Jews, Christians, and Muslims (it's in the Quran, too).

    Sometimes, they display their ignorance with such brazen arrogance it is breathtaking to behold.

    They have been conspiratorially, ceaselessly hyping fairytales of Trump treason, collusion, obstruction, etc., for years, and then they have the gall to refer to an incident recorded in the Bible and repeated in the Quran as a fairytale, thereby insulting millions of Christians, Jews, and Muslims, not just in America but around the world.

    Never say the Dems and their MSM cannot get any lower, because they will certainly prove you wrong.

    Ignorance mixed with arrogance. Usually never a good combo.

    Yeah, I mean global flood legends, remarkably similar to the biblical account, exist all over the world in every ancient culture. The smart skeptic has to wonder why.

    The Noah of the Bible is not the same Noah of the Quran nor is it the same story.

    I am not seeing the ads. But, what ads you see is due to the ad server the site uses. For example, a real popular one is Google Analytics. The ad server uses the cookies installed on your computer as you browse the web and based on your history, you will see certain ads and see less of other ads due to their formulas of what ads would be effective to someone with your browsing history. If you are not seeing appropriate ads it is because the ad server believes someone with your browsing history would want to see ads from those sellers. To correct this use a non tracking search engine such as DuckDuckGo, or clear your browser cache including browsing history and cookies.

    That might not help you see the ads you really want to see, but at least it will reset what ads it serves to you, thus getting rid of those particular soft core porno ads.

    Only a very small minority are young earth creationists. Pew says only a quarter believe Scripture is literally true.

    In spite of scientific mathematical impossibility, the overwhelming majority still believe in evolution. And Deep Time or millions and millions of years is still going strong. And many postulate a uniformitarianist peaceful tranquil flood that goes back over 200 years ago and has been left behind by secular science long ago.

    So, few Jews vote GOP but many might believe that there was a Noah. I know a JW who believes in Noah but he is not a Trump voter or any kind of voter. I don't think Noah is a political indicator. Many Trump voters are atheists or non-Christians and a fifth of Evangelicals voted for Hillary.

    The curious thing is that Morris & Whitcomb & many others led to an Australian building a full- sized museum shaped like Noah's Ark in Williamstown, Kentucky, and now the USA is talking about Noah. Ark Encounter is wildly successful & a blessing to everyone. Wait till AiG starts the Tower of Babel in Williamstown!

    Not sure I agree about evolution as even Norm Geisler before he died berated AiG for not looking at things scientifically. Of course, in May 2019, a couple of American scientists pulled the plug on evolution but I imagine that seminary professors are a stronghold of evolution and deep time, just saying.

    Christians who see the Bible as inspired and infallible are very inconsistent if also holding to evolution. Still can be saved, but very confused!

    Yeah, it goes back 100 years or more. Higher education considered evolution & deep time as scientific & the older generation accepted it. I was educated in Texas & one prof told us that some were against evolution but to speak out would cost them their jobs. Those were the days of publish or perish. The federal government controls the universities with grants of money so that the science department gets so much money but the evolutionist in charge enforces conformity.

    Ken Ham took a lot of flack during the building phase. Apparently many "concerned Christians" thought it was a waste of money and resources. Thank God he didn't listen. The Church, in particular, needs to be reminded about the past wrath of God, and trust what Scripture says about it.

    I was being a bit tongue n cheeky regarding the Trump voting. Just funny how leftists think. Though if someone is smart enough to trust God's word about the Flood, makes sense they'd be smart enough not to trust leftist candidates.

    What is interesting to me is that many in astronomy and biology moving away from it, yet some still set in stone for it, as they will not even consider God exists as Creator!

    Of all the biblical stories, the Noah tale is by far the easiest to refute.
    Anyone who still takes the Noah tale literally in the 21st century has NOT bothered to conduct any research on the subject.
    The idea of a "global flood" 4400 years ago is refuted by so many independent lines of evidence that its impossible to take seriously in a modern world.

    For you to make this statement, you'd have to know every man on earth, and have to pretend that all creation scientists don't really exist. Are you sure you have the faith to believe that?

    I've read the claims of "creation scientists".. I find them absurd.
    They don't conduct science at all, they instead conduct apologetics.
    They spend all their time trying to mold the evidence to fit their pre conceived narrative, rather than simply accepting what the evidence demonstrates.
