Well..taking the bible literally per fundamentalist view..would be ridiculous per the authors that wrote that book..

So seriously per that original intent..of a book that was truly in effect a coded piece of poetry..

That video is no more convincing..than fundamentalist folks that try to reduce that amazing thousands of years old super kool book of coded poetry.....

Into something simplistic...

And well who knows..that flood could still be coming..

Ever heard of meteors friend...

Perhaps it hasn't happened yet....

The bible kinda works that way..with no definitive time or place for poetic coded thoughts in metaphors....

If a big enough meteor hits the earth..there will not be any ark big enough to save the human race..

But yah..some animals will survive..

HUMANS AIN'T THAT SPECIAL compared to really super species like porpoises and whales and such....

Collective intelligence is just an illusion..

Porpoises kNow..those 'folks' are reALLy where IT's@

The spiritual high thing..

if one wills..with ONE

And porpoises got that s**t done..sister..or brother..
sorry haven't checked yOUr gender friend..
but nah..that stuff don't matter to me..

as i am simply androgynous friend...

I have many different reasons for accepting the Bible as history rather than fantasy, but you'd have to point to a specific example for me to elaborate.


I am guessing you don't want your assertion that the bible is "history rather than fantasy" challenged any further. Shame I would have thought you had m fortitude than that. But then your assertion is very easy to disprove so I should not be surprised.
