ELF    Please provide dates for the flood and the Egyptian plagues.

    Please provide explanations for the two cases of divine Alzheimer's (in re
Adam and Balaam) already posted.

    Think of the flood and the Egyptian plagues vs. evidence this way:

    If you tell me my house has just been destroyed by a tornado during a
thunderstorm (about as likely as hen's teeth in San Diego, but this is just a
thought experiment), and I rush home -- and not a shingle is out of place, was
my house destroyed by the tornado?
    There's no "affirmative" proof after all, merely the lack of the evidence
that there ought to be.
    Ergo, if you can't provide evidence for the first two, or an explanation for
the second two, well then, checkmate.

¡Salud!

Mike, aka Elfish Chimera
