If God can create anything, or the universe, who is to say that there is anything God can’t do!
I also agree with you about the faith thing. Even if there is something in the Bible that isn’t explainable easily with science, I still believe it as truth or historical fact.
But one thing I noticed, you said you think the tower of babel was a myth. The bible really doesn’t indicate it as a parable, and I believe it was true.
Think about this, when they people had one language, there was no stopping them. They actually were smart back then too (look at stone hedge or these other buildings), except for the fact that the reason they built babel was to worship a false God.
So God scattered them on the earth, and confused the language because of it.
This is true, and proves true today. We are becoming the new babel. Language is no longer a barrier issue, even right now I can type something and go to altavista babel and translate it into almost any language I want. People can communicate with anyone all over the world.
Anytime you have some incredible communication like this, look at what happens. technology and information starts to EXPLODE! Cloning, computers, GPS, electronic banking…
Babel was the one time in history when a large group of people came together to worship a false God & build a tower reaching into the sky in his honor. And now, the same thing is happening with our technology. There is no stopping us brilliant humans now. Kinda makes you think the antichrist & end is coming within the next few hundred years or so huh!
