intermarriage, and are affected by similar advantages and
disadvantages, making the comparison remarkably fair.

Also, the 25,000,000 descendants of Abraham must have doubled their
numbers every 162.275 years, during the 3,988 years since the birth of
his son Ishmael. These periods of doubling which tally so closely,
168.3 years for the whole race, 161.251 for the Jews, and 162.275
years for the descendants of Abraham, cannot be a mere coincidence,
but are a demonstration against the great age of man required by
evolution, and in favor of the 5,177 years since Noah. None of the
other various chronologies would make any material difference in these
calculations. The correspondence of these figures, 168.3, 161.251 and
162.275 is so remarkable that it must bring the conviction to every
serious student that the flood destroyed mankind and Noah became the
head of the race.

Now the evolutionists claim that the human race is 2,000,000 years
old. There is no good reason for believing that, during all these
years the developing dominant species would not increase as rapidly as
the Jews, or the human race in historic times, especially since the
restraints of civilization and marriage did not exist. But let us
generously suppose that these remote ancestors, beginning with one
pair, doubled their numbers in 1612.51 years, one-tenth as rapidly as
the Jews, or 1240 times in 2,000,000 years. If we raise 2 to the
1240th power, the result is 18,932,139,737,991 with 360 figures
following. The population of the world, therefore, would have been
18,932,139,737,991 decillion, decillion, decillion, decillion,
decillion, decillion, decillion, decillion, decillion, decillion; or
18,932,139,737,991 vigintillion, vigintillion, vigintillion,
vigintillion, vigintillion, vigintillion.
