Just another blow to you religious believers. Science has once again proven another "MIRACLE" that isn't so miraculous. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-11383620 "63mph winds from the east could have pushed the water back at an ancient river bend"

Were they there when it happened? That's what I thought. Not "another blow."

Is Basil's past time attempting to attack religion and eating a bowl of arrogance?

If you believe God created everything, then it's natural that He created science too. This means he could have commanded the winds to part the Red Sea. I don't see this as a "another blow". Good try though.

I saw that this morning on Discovery Canada. Interesting.

The only thing that blows is you trying to be right. Even if it was science, powerful winds just HAPPENED to have parted the Red Sea RIGHT at that moment? Too much of a coincidence. And this is coming from a agnostic person.

[/quote] Well maybe one day when science gets smart enough to make time travel machines, we can both go back and see who can say "I told ya so." Until then, you guys can keep on guessing. The rules of logic indicate that either scenario is equally plausible. Both parties have no actual evidence to completely support their case.

The Red Sea explains the first 6 plagues by Moses. Correct me if I'm wrong. 1. Bacteria in the sea turns it red. Water into blood 2. Bacteria forces frogs out of the sea. Frog invasion 3. Bacteria kills the frogs on land. Gnats invade due to dead froggies 4. Same as 3. Flies are the of springs of the gnats 5. Insects attack the animauxs. 6. Boils. People acquire this disease from ingest infected animals Things just got real. dawg

I hate how catholics only responses are irrelevant paradoxes or completely backwards statements. Religion and Science can coexist, but it's the religions that won't allow it. And if you're following "the rules of logic" is it not more logical to believe in something that has a viable explanation, with evidence to back it up (we see the insane things weather can do everyday, just turn on the news) or is it more logical to believe in something just because. Obviously the first choice.

63mph winds parted the sea over the long time it took for all the people to cross? On top of that, it's a pretty huge sea. Doubt that this is true = 100%

The odds that it happened at the exact time they were crossing the river isn't too high though, now is it?

Then how did Moses know when exactly to part the Red Sea? Prove that with science. :<
