Good for your daughter to not have bought into that nonsense.
Yet is that not what you are saying? God let the hebrews remain deceived because he did not both to correct them.

Irony

No, that is not what I'm saying. But bothering to explain it to you (again) would be pointless. You simply wouldn't understand.

Then again, in 2 Chronicles 18:19-22 God really was a party to deception. And no, you can't explain it away, though I'm sure you'll try.

Her relationship with the church ended when she broke up with the son of a preacher man in college.

I'm sure there were dragons (what we now call dinosaurs) on the ark. Since the old world was destroyed with the Deluge, it's safe to assume many of them were unable to survive in the new conditions.

God's plan with the Deluge was not to save the dinosaurs. His plan was to judge the earth and destroy it with water. In His mercy, He allowed mankind and animal life to survive, to whatever extent possible.
