Thread: Time beginning with the great flood

spockman, I didn't know you played World of Warcraft!

In before thread sodomization and .

No lock in sight.

I don't doubt giant floods, just look at what happened to those island nations recently...

Noah on the other hand, and the boat story I believe to be nothing but a nice story. And I highly doubt the WHOLE WORLD was one giant waterhole but... I don't doubt massive floods in certain areas of the world.

I think it's a disgusting story of mass murder and impossibility.

Yeah I was trying to be nice though -.-

I think a great flood did happen, because of how universal the story is. but at the same time, our oldest stories are the most symbolic stories because no one was writing in our most ancient history. our first cultures didn't have written language, they were an oral culture. just play a game of telephone. its not hard to see how the truth can stretch in a fable without written word.


the idea of a pair of each animal on a single boat, is just silly

but there is another theme in this story that persists today. and thats the idea that natural disasters are a punishment/or result because of our lifestyle. just look at the story of atlantis.

today there are many people who think the earth is conscious. and she's losing patience with humanity, 'again'.
