Joshua stopping the sun?
Hebrews able to multiply from 70 to 3 million in 215 years,
requiring each woman to have about 66 children each?
Unicorns, Dragons, or fiery serpents?
Surviving in a whale for three days?
etc............................................... ..

Well being fruifull and multiplying from 20 to 3 million in only 215 years was more than matched by a boatload of Englishmen who set foot in Jamestown in 1609 by 1824 there were only 15 million Americans in a nation that stretched to the Rockies and had its first permanant outposts on the Pacific Ocean. Yes this wasn't due to prodigious sex but an even greater miracle getting non-British Europeans, Africans and even Asians to learn the english language.

Considering the moronic question of this thread you're clearly showing your bias. You have the gall to accuse conservatives of making ridiculous claims in this thread? That's rich (and not the rich you profess to hate so much).

Religion is a mental illnesses. It gets proven time and time again.
I too believe(d) in evolution. So I went down the evolution trail...I found a hole.

A Draft Sequence of the Neandertal Genome -- Green et al. 328 (5979): 710 -- Science

See if you can find that hole, too. I may have to retract a recent post. As for as religion as a mental illness, my response to that, will keep for now.

It would seem logical to conclude so from the OP's question, wouldn't it?
