A Massive Migration?

The Bible says that, after the global flood, the ark landed in the Middle East. So how did people get to the Americas or Australia?

Well, after the flood, Noah’s descendants disobeyed God. So he confused their language, forcing them to spread out. This got people moving.

Now the flood was also followed by an ice age. This dramatically lowered ocean levels, exposing land bridges, including a bridge between what’s now Russia and Alaska. This allowed people to walk to the Americas.

Also, island-hopping may’ve allowed people to get to Australia or they could’ve taken boats to explore the new world.

Starting with the Bible’s history, we can explain human migration.
