Adam’s Blog [stardate 23,234.316] - We’ll Make It Go!

Every decade my love for Eva [Eve] grows stronger and richer.  I think of her love, virtue and beauty day and night.  Two weeks ago during a soft breezy evening I was in a deep dream [Really Entertaining Movies] and I saw Eva’s wondrous eyes:

I imagined that they were spinning around like so:

The very next day a few of my grandchildren, Hugim, Yuren and Jiyanz came to me with a conundrum.  They had a large toy box and wanted to take it to the other side of Lake Noeg.  I promised them “We’ll make it go!”  I was inspired by my dream and Hugim, Yuren and Jiyanz made flat washer shapes from wood and I connected them with a bamboo pole.  We made two sets of these donut-like devices and attached a rope to the front of the box and my grandkids delivered the toys to their friends on the other side of the lake‼  Yuren shouted, “Ruu-Mei-Ow!” in a joyful manner.

I think I will name this device a WHEEL since this whole episode started off with “We’ll make it go!”  The next time you have a deep dream [REM], don’t take it lightly [Gen. 37:5-10].

In 2011 a small stone car was discovered in Turkey.  Archaeologist Mesut Alp said that the toy car is about 7,500 years old.

Adam’s Lost Dream

Was Adam super-smart, a hyper-polymath and mega-Mensan?  Adam and Eve were created perfect (Ge 1:31), but had to suffer the dreadful consequences of the Fall (Ge 3:16-19).  Solomon Veniaminovich “S” Shereshevsky (d. 1958) remembered virtually everything – even long meaningless math formulas.  He could even recite them years later.    

Kim “Rain Man” Peek (d. 2009) had a phenomenal memory.  Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise starred in the film.*  Peek could accurately remember the material in 12,000 books!  John vonNeumann, who was instrumental in the development of the digital computer, had a superb memory.  He could recall everything he read and even translate it into English without hesitating.  Zerah Colburn (age 8) could calculate 8^16 in just a few seconds (281,474,976,710,656)!     

Calculating prodigy, George Parker Bidder (d. 1878) had a brother who memorized the Bible.  Steve Clinton (Ph.D. Systematic Theology) knows two people who have memorized the whole Bible.  It has been estimated that millions have memorized the Qur’an.  There is even a special term for someone who has done so, hafiz:

Did Adam recall his dreams?  Why do we dream?  Some dreams are disturbing (Job 4:13, 7:14).  Dreams often aid our creativity.  Otto Loewi (d. 1961) won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1936 for his research on the chemical transmission of nerve impulses.  His inspiration for a critical experiment came from a dream!  Friedrich August Kekulé von Stradonitz discovered the structure of benzene through a dream (a snake biting its tail).  Madame C.J. Walker (d. 1919) was the first female American self-made millionaire. She founded an African-American cosmetic company that was started by a dream!  Elias Howe, who invented the sewing machine in 1845, got the idea of putting the hole at the tip of the needle from a dream.  Louis Agassiz (d. 1883) saw the shape of a fossil fish he had been puzzling over in a dream!

Did Adam and Eve, the first tellurians, dream of being chrononauts observing life kiloyears in the future?  Did Adam think about creating a dino hologram, skyscraper or Dyson sphere because of a dream?  Did Adam dream of memorizing 67,890 digits of π (like Chao Lu)?    

One idea that came from a recent dream of mine was putting murals on NYC skyscrapers, somewhat like how they use murals in Hollywood.

The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.” (Ge 11:6, NIV)

Behold, in this you are not right. I will answer you, for God is greater than man. Why do you contend against him, saying, “He will answer none of man's words?”  For God speaks in one way, and in two, though man does not perceive it.  In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, while they slumber on their beds, then he opens the ears of men and terrifies them with warnings, that he may turn man aside from his deed and conceal pride from a man; he keeps back his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword (Job 33:12-18, ESV).

Chris Langan has an IQ of 195, so he’s a genius. He made a perfect score on the SAT exam. Chris competed on the game show “One Versus One Hundred” hosted by Bob Saget and won $250,000. [1]
Chris gets ideas from his dreams, “I found if I go to bed with a question on my mind, all I have to do is concentrate on the question before I go to sleep and I virtually always have the answer in the morning. Sometimes I realize what the answer is because I dreamt the answer and I can remember it.” [2] Imagine what wonderfully creative ideas Adam, the initial human, gained from his dreams!
Chris Langan claims that, “Harvard is basically a glorified corporation, operating with a profit incentive. That’s what makes it tick. It has an endowment in the billions of dollars. The people running it are not necessarily searching for truth and knowledge. … When you’re there, they got a thumb right on you. They are out to make sure you don’t step out of line.” [3] Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers and Blink, disagrees: “… university life gives them [professors] the freedom to do what they want to do and what they feel is right.” unless, of course, you are showing the weaknesses of evolution. [4] Apparently, Gladwell has not seen Ben Stein’s film “EXPELLED.” Jerry Bergman has written a 477 page book, Slaughter of the Dissidents, documenting the academic persecution of Darwin Doubters. For example, Norbert Smith has a Ph.D. in zoology from Texas Tech University. After Francis Rose, a biology prof at Tech, learned of Smith’s rejection of Darwinism, he formed a committee to annul Smith’s doctorate! This was not successful. [5] One creationist with a Ph.D. in biology from Harvard has been fired several times from teaching positions because of his views on origins. [6]

Dr. Philip Bishop, a physiology professor at the University of Alabama, was persecuted for offering an optional lecture on the evidence for God seen in human physiology. [7] Nancy Bryson (Ph.D. chemistry) was the Science Department Head at Mississippi University for Women (MUW). After she gave a talk critical of Darwinism, she was demoted and was eventually forced to leave MUW. [8] Dr. Caroline Crocker taught biology at George Mason University for several years. After a student complained, she was told not to present the evidence for Intelligent Design (ID) and ultimately lost her job. She was also let go from a community college because of her doubts about Darwinism. [9]
Intolerance towards questioning amoeba-to-Adam evolution is pervasive. Just consider the case of Raymond Damadian, inventor of the MRI. The probable reason why he did not receive the 2003 Nobel Prize in Medicine was because he is a creationist. [10]
In 2004, Guillermo Gonzalez, astronomer at Iowa State University (ISU), wrote The Privileged Planet: How Our Place in the Cosmos is Designed for Discovery. Gonzalez also appeared in the film by the same name. For taking such a strong stand for design, he was denied tenure and was fired from ISU in 2007 despite the fact that he had published almost 70 peer-reviewed scientific papers! [11]  If ID is true, who is the Intelligent Designer?

Maybe the genius was right after all.

“For dreams result from much work and a fool's voice from many words” (Eccl. 5:3, Holman)

Adam to Abraham (A2A): The Dating Game

Orthodox Protestants who take Genesis as Historical Narrative (OPGHN, “opgane”) believe the Genesis record gives us a clear chronology from Adam to Abraham. There is no evidence of gaps. [1] Seth named Enosh (Ge 4:26) so he was his direct descendant and not a distant relative. In Jude 14 we are told that Enoch was the seventh from Adam, so no gaps are possible there. Lamech named Noah (Ge 5:29) so he was his biological father and not his great great grandfather. Arphaxad must be the son of Shem and not his grandson since he was born just two years after the flood. Methuselah’s name means “when he dies it shall be sent” and the year of his death is when the Global Flood started. This shows how accurate and tight the historical chronology from Genesis is - Methuselah could not have died after the Flood!

Adam and Eve lived at the beginning of creation not millions of years later (Mk 10:6). Since the beginning of creation man has been able to see God’s eternal power and divine nature through observing creation (Rom 1:20) – man has existed since the beginning and is not a latecomer in cosmic history. If millions of years really existed before the Flood, scripture could have made that plain. Second Chronicles 14:9 refers to a million man fighting force.

Jacob told Pharaoh that his life so far was short (130 years) compared to his forefathers (Ge 47:9), thus confirming the long ages of the antediluvians (900’s). The Sumerian King List also documents long ages before the Global Flood and a drastic reduction in life spans afterward. The Sumerian King List shows eight kings before the flood and if we don’t include Adam and Noah, this matches the historical chronology from Genesis. The Sumerian system of math was based on 60 instead of the decimal system (base 10). If we convert the life spans of the line of Seth from decimal to base 60 we can see that the Sumerian King List is somewhat close to the actual values from Genesis. For Mahalalel we have 8*3600=28,800 and 9*60=540. The totals for all eight differ by only 5%.














To many, long life spans seem incredible. Just think of the number of dreams Adam had in 930 years. One way to live longer is to avoid disease. A group of dwarfs in southern Ecuador get neither cancer nor diabetes due to their unique genetic makeup.

We can see from this chart by Walt Brown (click to see larger image) that Adam lived at the same time as Methuselah, Methuselah lived at the same time as Shem and Shem lived at the same time as Isaac! So Isaac could have verified Shem’s first hand knowledge of the genealogy, Shem could have done the same with Methuselah and Methuselah could have checked his facts from Adam himself! A chronology you can trust from the man made from dust. Adam and Eve had plenty of practice with number theory when they counted the thousands of stars at night. Bookkeeping the “begats” would be no problem for the first Edenite.

From Adam to the Flood is 1656 years. For hundreds of years people could chat with the perfect couple (initially) who once lived in a utopia named Paradise. Both Genesis and Josephus agree that Abraham was born 290 years after the Flood. [2] Abraham could have compared his genealogy with Shem, who was still alive in his time. Abraham is generally considered to be living around 2000 BC. Therefore, the traditional date of creation of around 4000 BC seems correct. The Mayan calendar places creation at 3114 BC which is not that far from the date of 4004 BC given by Ussher.

Some reply that radiometric dating forces a lengthening of the Genesis chronology. The book and DVD “Thousands not Billions” provide decisive evidence that radioactive dating actually supports the Young Earth Science (YES) position. This book, which summarizes the findings of the RATE project includes both scientific and biblical evidence.

All the men named in these genealogies were sinners: “Here’s a word you can take to heart and depend on: Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners. I’m proof—Public Sinner Number One” (1 Tim. 1:15, Message).

“Palmettos and Recurrence Dreams”

  Do you enjoy braiding you daughters’ hair?  I was pondering the trunk of a palmetto tree and admired the braided pattern the Intelligent Designer gave this plant.  I could imitate this design to make rope!  I invented a small version of the palmetto trunk and if you put your fingers in each end it’s difficult to escape.  My children love this toy! I named it an HTU for Holistic Tube of Unity.

  I had a strange dream the other strange day.  In the dream I was sleeping, as I woke up I said, “MADAM, IN EDEN I’M ADAM.”  Next, I went to the garden and noticed that three fourths of my tulips were missing.  A funny thing about ¾ is that it’s NEVER ODD OR EVEN.  A while later Dennis and Edna were caught fighting, so I gave my verdict: DENNIS AND EDNA SINNED.  This series of events repeated itself over and over and over.  By the way, aren’t groundhogs cute?

  The Intelligent Designer made the world during the first six days of history.  Unlike my adorable offspring, I never said “goo-goo gah-gah.”  I had no mom or dad to hug or kiss me.   Some call me “Dusty” for that is what the Creator made me from and where my destiny lies [~ Ge 2:7, 3:19].  Since Eve was taken from my rib, some have nicknamed her “Reeba.”  Before the day I ate the bad fruit, my dreams had no animal deaths and none of my children had fatal accidents.  Our sinless, deathless paradise is gone, but our loving Creator has promised a coming Savior [~ Ge 3:15, 1 Jn 3:8, Rev 22:3].  I love to eat radishes and squash.  I am the first Adam.   Deep time? What’s that?  I have been stuck by thorns, but I have never Ben Stein…
