Could 2 People Populate a Planet to 7 Billion People?

"In a few thousand years, we expect only seven billion humans. But calculating how many humans there should be in tens of thousands of years doesn't add up—or rather adds up quite a bit too much!" Learn more in this feedback article from AiG's Bodie Hodge:

Could 2 People Populate a Planet to 7 Billion People?

Did your study take cognisance of the high mortality rates from diseases, pestilences, wars and natural disasters till the last 100 years? What, apart from evolution, can explain the stunning diversity in peoples, cultures and languages?

Even if evolution is wrong the bible is a very very poor alternative story of how human beings were created.

Do the Maths and see that all that has been taken care of.

let's do the maths together......let's assume the growth rate and the average number of birth that can make it possible. Suggest one

Let's hope you will not break loose and run when you become stuck.

Let's see how biblical knowledge is verified by mathematics.

John Heffner, a mathematics professor, puts The theory of evolution to the test, using the human population formula based on the claim that an average birth rate of 2.5 children per family yields and exponential population growth rate.

Watch him put both the Creation and Evolution Models to the test and see how each would fare under the unbiased scrutiny of Mathematics. Which one is correct, Biblical Creation or Evolution?

The Evolution Model
About 15 billion years ago the universe exploded into existence.
About 4.6 billion years ago the earth evolved
About 3.5 billion years ago life evolved
About 0.5-1.0 billion years ago humans evolved from ape-like creatures

(By time, chance and natural processes).

Creation Model
God created the universe and everything in it in 6 (24hr) days, 6,000 years ago
Sin was the cause of death
God destroyed the world by a worldwide flood
Man was created in the image of God

John Heffner put these two theories to test by using the formula; Growth rate = birth rate - death rate.

According to biblical knowledge;

Noah's flood happened about 4,500 years ago, and with 4 couples at the rate of 2.5 children per family will result in 6.5 billion people in the world. (6.5 x 10⁹)

Creation hits the bulls eye

According to the Theory of Evolution

"The evolutionary journey to modern humans ends with the appearance about 500,000 years ago of Homo Sapiens" Biology, Raven and Johnson p.525

That means about 500,000 years of man, at the rate of 2.5 children per family will produce 2.45 x 10⁹⁹⁰ people. This is more than the number of electrons in the universe!!!, which is in the 10¹³⁰

what a mumbo jumbo. At what rate or growth where the first creature giving birth?. you can not dig up or take out fallacious claim from your butt and present it as fact. if we are going to deal with the subject mathematically. we need to work with some parameter like the growth rate and the number of children averagely assign to each first couples for billions of years science claim life started on earth, then after that, we can now test our answer using the same model assuming such a scenario really want to occur again. that is evidence based test.

When it says at the rate of 2.5 children per family that takes care of all scenarios. Do the maths and stop whining.

Earth's population refutes evolution.

This is what Grant R. Jeffery had to say in his book, The Signature of God:

"The evolutionary scientists who believe that man existed for over a million years have an almost insurmountable problem. Using the assumption of forty-three years for an average human generation, the population growth over a million years would produce 23,256 consecutive generations. We calculate the expected population by starting with one couple one million years ago and use the same assumptions of a forty-three-year generation and 2.5 children per family. . . The evolutionary theory of a million years of growth would produce trillions x trillions x trillions x trillions of people that should be alive today on our planet. To put this in perspective, this number is vastly greater than the total number of atoms in our vast universe. If mankind had lived on earth for a million years, we would all be standing on enormously high mountains of bones from the trillions of skeletions of those who had died in past generations. However, despite the tremendous archaeological and scientific investigation in the last two centuries, the scientists have not found a fraction of the trillions of skeletons predicted by the theory of evolutionary scientists."

Could they?

Such unbelievable stupidity. This stupid post completely forgets there is such a thing as human history and just sprouts some nonsensical figures as evidence of the dumb story of all of human kind coming from Noah and his children.

This is a clear example of dumbasses ignoring real evidence in favour of fairytales. LMFAO!

As usual diversion.

There is no evidence of the assumed population growth. History has shown that the world population did not grow this way.

Tell us how life began. How did life on earth originate, and then proceed to tell us how the earth got populated?

Population stats as recorded didn't grow the way you say it did. Hard facts are available not conjectures from an ancient book of mythology.

I will rather go with the bible scholars who believe that millions of years passed between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.

malvisguy212:

That is a diversion. How life began has nothing to do with population growth.

CodeTemplar:


I will rather go with the bible scholars who believe that millions of years passed between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.

"Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned" (Romans 5:12).

Questions for you to answer according to the verse above:

i) Who was that man through whom sin entered into the world?
ii) How did sin enter the world?
iii) Was there sin in the world before this man?
iv) Was there death in the world before this man?
v) How did bible scholars you believe in explain how population grew?
vi) How do you arrive at the population we have today?

LordReed:


That is a diversion. How life began has nothing to do with population growth.

If you don't know how life began how will you know where to start your calculations from?

You don't need to. Pick any part of our recorded human history and let's see if reality matches your assumptions.
