In reply to The Heretic's Bible - Genesis 6: God gets pissed (again)

In the Bible, sexual differentiation is presented as a creation by God and not part of the inherent nature of divinity itself. So, in your question, you were asking how God created without a consort, however, God created gender apart from himself. The Christian God, Yahweh, unlike other pagan gods in literature, did not procreate with goddesses, He simply created mankind (male and female) from the dust of the ground.

God is, of course, spirit, so God does not possess gender, per se.

However, Jesus Christ, took on humanity (specifically, becoming male,) but the Father and Spirit do not possess gender.

Ja. I was looking for the accompanying image, but it appears to have been purged from the internets.

Or the six spare animals from each "clean" species. That should have lasted them 40 days.

I should not have questioned our resident Creationism expert.

According to this site, http://www.angelfire.com/mi/dinosaurs/dino_ark.html, there were baby dinosaurs on the ark, and all animals were vegetarians until after they disembarked, so there was no fear of dinosaurs eating anyone. (Scriptural note: This is speculation. According to the Bible, people didn't eat meat until after the flood, but there is no word on when animals became carnivorous. The Bible is also notably silent on the question of dinosaurs in the ark.)

Don't give me that. I saw proof that dinosaurs were on the ark when I went to the Creation Museum. There were model dinosaurs on their model ark. And there was a movie. But they never said what they ate.

Yeah, I just gave away ch. 7.

I had to read your previous link to understand the whole "sacrifice" bit. While doing so, I explored a bit further and found this veritable trove of scientific treasure.
