And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them,
Be fruitful, and multiply,
Genesis 9:1
"It is estimated by all mainstream sources that there are 7,000,000,000 people on the earth today, If the human race was repopulated after the Great Flood starting with the survivors from the Ark at a population growth rate of only 0.5% , we would be at the current population we have today. Most of the mainstream science community would say that the population explosion is recent due to advancesin nutrition and medicine, but those places that have the least of both - Third World countries - have the highest population growth rate, as high as a full 3%.
However if you take the number of years back only 100,000 years, as demanded by the mainstream scientific community otherwise demands you must, by implication, you would have today a current population of many trillions of people." DavidWilson
