An interesting poem, written by the ancient Chinese tribe of Miaho tribe. This was written long before Christian missionaries every reached them. Compare it to the account written in the Bible and you'll find striking similarities. This is only part of the poem, (it must be very long)
"On the earth He created a man from the dirt. Of the man thus created, a woman He formed. Then the Patriarch Dirt made a balance of stones. Estimated the weight of the earth to the bottom. Calculated the bulk of the heavenly bodies. And pondered the ways of the Diety, God. The Patrirch Dirt begat Patriarch Se-teh (Seth?). The Patriarch Seteh, begat a son Lusu (Lamech?). The Patriarch Lama Begat the man Nuah (Noah?).
His wife was the Matriarch Gaw Bo-lu-en.
Ther sons were Lo Han (Ham?), Lo Shen (Shem), and Jah-hu (Japheth?).

So the earth began filling with tribes and with families. Creation was shared by the clans and the peoples.
These did not God's will nor returned His affection. But fought with each other defying the Godhead. Their leaders shook fists in the face of the Mighty. Then the earth was convulsed to the depth of three strata.
Rending the air to the uttermost heaven. God's anger arose till His Being was changed; His wrath flaring up filled His eyes and His face. Until He must come and demolish humanity. Come and destroy a whole world full of people.

So it poured forty days in sheets and in torrents. Then fifty five days of misting and drizzle. The waters surmounted the mountains and ranges. The deludge ascending leapt valley and hollow. An earth with no earth upon which to take refuge! A world with no foothold where one might subside."
skipping a head a little, it says how Nuah proceded to let out a dove, and there was land. They offered a offering to God. Then this.
"Their offspring begotten became tribes and people. Their descendants established encampmens and cities. Their singing was all with the same tunes, and ther speaking was all with same words and language.
Then they said let us build us a very big city; let us raise unto heaven a very high tower. This was wrong but they reached this decision. Not right, but they rashly persisted. God struck at them then, changed their language and accent.
Descending in wrath, He confused tones and voices. One's speech to the others who hear him has no meaning;
He's speaking in words, but the can't understand him.
So the city they built was never completed; The tower they wrought has to stand thus unfinished. In despair then they separate under all heaven/ They parted and circled the world-ball. The arrive at six corners and the six languages."
Isn't it amazing how even without Christian 'influences' they taught this as their history? Could it be that they knew the truth taught from generation down? This was found in the book "The Global Flood" by John D. Morris.

One of the 'problems' of a worldwide flood, such as is described in the Bible as the flood of Noah's time is the lack of human fossils. If there was a flood, and the earth had been well populated before it, why aren't there human fossils? There are dinosaurs, birds, plants, and sea creatures, but no humans? Let's take a look at that this.

First of all how many human fossils should we be finding?

~95% of all fossils are shallow marine organisms, such as corals and shellfish.

~95% of the remaining 5% are algae and plants.

~95% of the remaining 0.25% are invertebrates, including insects.

The remaining 0.0125% are vertebrates, mostly fish. (95% of land vertebrates consist of less than one bone, and 95% of mammal fossils are from the Ice Age after the Flood.)

(above info found on answersingenesis.org)
That means there would be very few human fossils. They count in the remaining 0.0125% of vertebrates.

Why are the land animals fossils so much less than marine? Well, when land animals die in water, they bloat, and eventually come apart. It is VERY difficult to trap a bloated animal underwater to become buried, and fossilized. If you've ever tried to push a beach ball underwater, you know how hard it is, though a bloated animal is much different from a beach ball, that gives a picture of how it would float. Even if it didn't float, scavengers destroy flesh & bone.
When the flood happened, there was lots of pressure and strength in the water. The ability of underwater flows, would be able to grind bone to powder!

But have there been no evidence or fossils of humans before the flood? Carl Bough, a creationist, found footprints alongside dinosaur tracks. He also found a human finger. (picture>>)

There is also no reason that we wouldn't have found lots of the human fossils yet. Many of them may be together, as the humans would have gathered together to get to higher ground. We also do not know how many human fossils have been found, but we have not been told about.

Now, if evolution is true, and humans have lived on the earth for three million years of so, many of them would have died. Where are their fossils? Evolution says there was no flood, thus there isn't a reason they couldn't have been found.

Just tonight I watched an excellent documentary called 'Flight: The Genius of Birds'. Since we just posted about the hummingbird earlier, I thought this would go well with the bird theme!

As we mentioned earlier, humming birds can fly forward, backward, and hover. How do they do this though? For flying forward they beat their winds up and down very quickly. Hovering they moved their wings in a figure eight pattern, and backward flying they move their winds in a circular pattern above their heads. Did you know that can rotate their wings 180 degrees? Amazing little birds they are indeed.
Starlings are quite amazing birds too. Even though farmers may not like them so much, many people including Dylan Winter, a cinematographer find them fascinating. On their way back to their chosen roosts they fly in amazing formations, often called 'ballet of the air'. Groups of thousands of birds twist and turn moving gracefully through the sky, never running into each other. How do they do it? Well, it has only been partially explained so far. Studies show that they estimate the distance between them, and 6-7 other birds around them. Every time a bird moves up or down, it makes a chain reaction throughout all the other birds. This is much more complicated than the tricks airplanes can do.
The Arctic Tern, is a bird many of you may have heard of. It has the farthest migration patterns than any other bird. They fly almost constantly for nine months, traveling around three hundred miles a day! They also live for about 20 years, and the total distance they travel would be the same as traveling to the moon and back three times in their lifetime. They are surely amazing, with their built in GPS'.

Evolution would say that birds evolved from dinosaurs. Small dinosaurs evolved feathers and wings, and leapt from branch to branch, and flapped their arms to catch flying insects.
Look at an airplane. It's very complicated with all its machinery, and systems! Would you have any trouble believing that it was created? Birds, are so much more complex than airplanes, and much more efficient. Why do people have trouble believing that they are created? Could it be because they don't want to?
