Sorry, but that's how I was taught the story.
At a recent family reunion one of my cousins told a group of us that, God is judging America, because we aren't keeping God's order in the Bible, established by Noah, that, blacks are to be slaves. In other words, God is angry at us for not keeping the blacks as slaves. Don't you love how some Christians interpret the Bible to support their bigotry.
