1 NOAH S FLOOD GENETICS DR. ROBERT CARTER

2 I would like to personally thank you for watching the Origins television program. This show was special, near to the heart of my parents, Russ and Norma Bixler. I trust that the information in this presentation will be helpful in your study of creation science. Thank you for your prayerful and financial support of Origins you re making the television production of this program possible! Also available now a legacy website dedicated to my parents at russandnormabixler.com. Paul R. Bixler Producer/Editor

4 THE BIBLE IS THE HISTORY BOOK OF THE UNIVERSE!

5 SIX DAYS OF CREATION (GENESIS 1) DAY 1 DAY 2 DAY 3 DAY 4 DAY 5 DAY 6

6 ADAM IS THE FATHER OF ALL PEOPLE Then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. Gen 2:7 (ESV)

7 EVE IS THE MOTHER OF ALL PEOPLE So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. Gen 2:21-22 (ESV)

8 NOAH S FLOOD

9 NOAH S FLOOD: WHEN? Noah was born about 1056 A.M. Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came upon the earth. Gen 7:6 HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN ALIVE AFTER 1,600 YEARS?

10 HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN ALIVE AFTER 1,600 YEARS? Carter R, Hardy C, Modelling biblical human population growth, Journal of Creation 29(1):72-79, 2015.

11 HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN ALIVE AFTER 1,600 YEARS?

12 SHEM, HAM, AND JAPHETH (+ WIVES) The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the people of the whole earth were dispersed. Gen 9:18-19 (ESV)

13 THE TOWER OF BABEL

14 THE TOWER OF BABEL Now the whole earth had one language and the same words Then they said, Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth. Gen 11:1-4 (ESV)

15 THE TOWER OF BABEL And the Lord said, Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech. Gen 11:6-7 (ESV)

16 THE TOWER OF BABEL So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. Gen 11:8 (ESV)

17 TOWER OF BABEL: WHEN? To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan. Gen 10:25 (ESV)

18 TOWER OF BABEL: WHEN? Patriarch Shem Arpachshad Shelah Eber Peleg Age at birth of son (lived 239 years) BETWEEN 101 AND 340 YEARS AFTER T

19 HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN ALIVE AFTER 1,600 YEARS? Carter R, Hardy C, Modelling biblical human population growth, Journal of Creation 29(1):72-79, Easily 1000 Perhap s 10-50,000

20 THE EXODUS The Bible says 70 people went to Egypt Exodus 12 says 600,000 fighting-age males left Population must have been ~2.7 million IS THIS POSSIBLE IN 480 YEARS?

21 EXODUS: LONG SOJOURN Carter R, Hardy C, Modelling biblical human population growth, Journal of Creation 29(1):72-79, 2015.

22 EXODUS: SHORT SOJOURN Carter R, Hardy C, Modelling biblical human population growth, Journal of Creation 29(1):72-79, 2015.

23 7 BILLION PEOPLE ALIVE TODAY!?

24 7 BILLION PEOPLE ALIVE TODAY!? Requir es % growth rate Or one doublin g

25 ADAM + EVE PREDICTIONS: Low genetic diversity 1 Y (male) ancestor 1 mtdna (female) ancestor Most genes in 2 versions THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE SEE

26 NOAH S FLOOD PREDICTIONS: All people closely related Only a few mtdna lines One Y chromosome line Evidence of rapid population growth THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE SEE

27 TOWER OF BABEL PREDICTIONS: Single dispersal of all people In the relatively recent past Traveling in small groups Into uninhabited territory Through the Middle East THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE SEE

31 1.1 MILLION ALLELES (HAPMAP) Carter R, Powell M, The Genetic Effects of the Population Bottleneck associated with Noah s Flood, Journal of Creation, in press, 2016.

32 COMPUTER MODEL: 1000 PEOPLE

33 THE GENOME IS DEGENERATING Every possible genetic mutation exists in YOU! new mutations per generation Every possible genetic mutation exists in the current human population, hundreds of times over

34 MUTATION ACCUMULATION IN HUMAN H1N1 Carter and Sanford (2012) A new look at an old virus: patterns of mutation accumulation in the human H1N1 influenza virus since 1918, Theor Biol and Med Modelling 9:42.

35 SUMMARY: All humans descend from Adam and Eve The Flood was not a genetic disaster Tower of Babel is in our genes 7 billion people? Easy! Mutation are driving us to extinction

36 1 PET 3:15! but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect
