April So you're going to claim that any animal which causes problems for the Noah's ark story just wasn't around 6000 years ago? How convenient. So if I dig up the evolutionary history of the polar bear, and show that it's been around longer than 6000 years, will you then tell me how he kept them cold enough? Do I have to give you the lineage of snakes, as well? I will get the information, but only if you promise me you will then deal with the cold/hot issue. Deal?
