    From your previous post it is apparent that your blindness has persisted for more than just a few mere moments.

    Heh, nice one.

    You're wrong, and you were talking about probabilities...but good come back. I'll give you that.
    Man is a marvelous curiosity … he thinks he is the Creator's pet … he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn't it a quaint idea.

    I haven't really given this much thought. But upon reflection, I think what must have happened was that there was a big-ass flood in the region where the Bible writer guys lived, and they just assumed the whole earth was covered by water. (Is that even possible?)

    You guys can believe whatever you want. I'm just glad my belief system isn't tied to a literal acceptance of what's in the Bible.

    Thank you, Lord.

    This was the third choice in the poll and this is also what I think happened.

    But he didn't.... he also promised to never send a flood like that again - hence the Rainbow...

    This means he would've broke that promise countless times sense regional floods happen all the time, all over the world...

    What kind of post is this that ofers no proof or explaination?

    He hasn't done a flood of that magnitude, regional or not.
