The geneitc bottleneck can only appear if God did not change genetics after the flood.
...and went out of its way to make it look as if neither the flood nore his magical fiddling with genes ever happened so that it all looks like he did nothing and humans evolved.
Genesis 11:7 indicates he did, since linguistics and genetics are interlinked.
If he changed genetis one time, he did so many times perhaps... rendering it impossible to track a potential bottleneck.
And instead went out of its way to make it look as if all life can be tracked back to a common ancestor.
See, your "defense" here is ridiculous. You are literally asking to ignore ALL the evidence and go by the bronze age ramblings of ignorant sheep herders instead.
And in a rather silly attempt to "explain away" the actual evidence... your defense consists of "magic".
He created a ne but old looking house, maybe.
Uhu, uhu.
Or maybe, he created everything last thursday and infused us all with our memories of having lived our entire lives.
So did your god also amuse himself with putting all those fossils in the ground of creatures that never lived to give it the "appearance of age"?
when God created Adam, he made him look like adult.
He wanted an adult
The equivalent would be to then create adam as an adult with a scar on his arm to make it look like an injury he never sustained when he was a toddler, which he never was. This is the level of desception you are required to posit for your "defense" to make any sense.
This is why people like @Subduction Zone say that people like you believe in a lying, deceptive god.
So he created one. In other words; he created a human with the appearance of age
Not just with the appearance of age. With the appearance of history. This is deception pure sang.
And it is ridiculous to posit as a "defense". It is a silly excuse to ignore all evidence and go with bronze age myths that fly in the face of evidence.
This is the equivalent of Last Thursdayism.
Once you allow for magic, you open up a can of worms.
When God created Adam, he gave him and his muscles a history. He could walk. Newborns can't walk.
Muscles need a history to work.
So that's why God gave Adam a good history of working muscles. Right at the day of his creation, according to the Bible.
Same with earth, I think.
Earth would be the equivalent of an adam that has scars from injuries he never sustained.
It's deceptive and beyond absurd.
It's Last Thursdayism.
It's a silly attempt to ignore any and all evidence in favor of a bronze age religious creation myth.
