Noah's Ark

[BabyDinosaur]

its like people say heaven is a reachable place. i believe its more of a mindset and helps people get through everyday life because they believe they have a higher power looking after them all day everyday. The only time people do turn to "god" is after a disaster, which we learn from teh bible is a cycle. They obey, they get prideful, god causes afflictions, they ask why me/us, and repeat since teh begining of man

The story of noah's ark claims the entire world was flooded, but back then the entirwe world consisted of only places you could get to, so maybe just the desert basin flooded. If that was the case, Noah wouldnt have needed to of every animal, just two of every animal living in the desert basin, which wouldnt have been AS many. Also, the boat wouldn't have had to have been as big. So we have a flooded desert basin in which a boat floated carrying two animals of say thirty different species. for 40 days. and 40 nights. at which time the flood waters had receded enough to let the animals free again.

It's a story, your not supposed to take it literally.

I guess expecting you to understand metaphors is a bit much though.

i never said it wasnt a story
that was directed at the people who take it as 100% fact

i agree, the bible is filled with stories. some people take it way to literally. the bible can be based off of facts but it is not all true. It is more of the oh how was the world created .... weeeellll.... like the tower of babel and so on

Its a simple book of teachings, with some of the actual Christian belief preserved within it.

You also have to consider the writers of the bible and the time period it was written in vs. our own time period. Also the biblical scrolls have been translated and retranslated and people have tried to simplify it for the lowest common denominator. What was written could been exaderations or just faulty assumptions because of their time. As for Noah's ark its actually been proven multiple times that there was a great flood. All cultures around the world have the same story of a great flood and great boat. But like i said the bible exaggerates the story to prove a point.
