Hear me out guys. And this is no where near a sound complete theory/thought,so please don't nitpick too much XD I'm sure you will understand the concept(some of you) First, the parting of the dead sea [quote] Volzinger and Androsov calculated that a wind blowing at the speed of 67 miles per hour sustained overnight could have exposed a reef that existed close below the ocean surface. The Israelites could have then fled over the passage before the wind died down and waters rose again, blocking the way for pursuing Egyptian soldiers in their wheeled chariots. Volzinger explains that some 3,500 years ago, the reef would have been closer to the water's surface so it would have been exposed for just the right amount of time.

Likely both.. But in a world before the sciences have been invented to explain this "miracle", how do you explain this phenomena without defaulting to out being "divine intervention"? The description in the bible describes the night having proper weather conditions to make this happen, the evidence for the natural occurrence is there it seems [b]And now, what made me make this post[/b] A great thought I pondered upon last night. Weigh in with your opinions people(don't be too brutal) The story of Adam and eve. It seems to be a great story of cellular formation and the autogenous formation of mitochondria(only one theory but still) Adam is among the first prokaryotic cells But isn't a perfectly happy person in garden of Eden, so God (the underlying natural forces) broke off one of the males ribs,(dna strands which created y chromosomes) to create eve, or mitochondria, the mate that every single cell we have requires,. Thee forbidden fruit? ATP that mitochondria provide It's not compete by any means, but I like to look at religious text as the explanations we had before science, not as oppositional to science
