On the one hand you claim that the story of Noah is a myth because there is no such thing as a worldwide flood in which it rains for 40 days and nights. This logic is called "the present is the key to the past" and was a governing principle in Geology for a hundred years. It was the primary reason that the theory the Dinosaurs were wiped out by a meteor was rejected for years until the evidence was so overwhelming those that objected appeared as idiots.

One might argue that there has never been a flood that went over the tops of the highest mountains (Himalayans, etc) except that the biggest floods in recent history occurred at the end of the last ice age when ice dams in the mountains collapsed. Biggest was in India, but the US also had a huge one as well.

One might argue that even if there was a huge flood worldwide associated with these ice dams collapsing the idea that Noah built a boat to save all the animals is absurd. Of course that ignores the 200 cultures with this story, all independent of each other, and 80 of these stories including an account of all the animals being saved in a boat. It also ignores the fact that all the large ungulates went extinct on all 6 continents at about this time. The US had 200 different species go extinct. There are only 18 domesticated animals and except for Llamas and guinea pigs, they are all native to Mesopotamia. Those domesticated animals gave the European/Asian civilizations that had them a huge advantage over all other civilizations.

Of course, even if Noah did build a big boat, fill it with all these animals like a giant barn, and there was 40 days and nights of rain, and floods out of the mountains you would expect the flood to roll the boat over. Since when have you seen a flash flood that a large boat like this would have survived? Except of course, we also know that the Black sea was a lake below sea level during the last ice age and that it flooded like a bathtub being filled up. So, a large boat in the black sea area could have easily survived this flood.

So then who is the one who is blinded by their delusions and ignoring all the facts and evidence? Looks like Awareness has been victimized by group think again.

Well at least you put together coherent sentences. And got to pontificated about Noah.

Okay, cuz the Bible says so, the flood happened, and Noah and 7 of all the critters bobbed around like a cork. But why did Noah save the mosquitoes? And couldn't he have left the bacterium and viruses to drown? Or did they hitch a ride on the critters?

In the end, the flood did not wipe out evil ... nor even the Nephilim ... nor did it change the fact that : "the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually."

So what good did it do?

And are you saying by inference that when a million species go extinct it's a good thing? cuz it happened with the flood?
