“NOAH!”
“Is that you Lord?”
I may still have that album around, somewhere…
Funny Stuff! 😀
We have the story as being recorded at least a thousand years later.
The floating saucer concept
Looks like the bottom half of a muffuletta.
Now I’m getting hungry.
“It seems that if it were floating with outdoor open areas, there would’ve been no need to send birds out to bring back branches/leaves. Noah could’ve seen that with his own eyes.”
If this means that, and up means down, then it was the shape of a pretzel.
This article is dumb. What a waste of time.
I’ve walked through the ark in Kentucky and it didn’t look like that.
Which no Middle Ages scholastics or theologians ever argued about, by the way. It was an anti-religious slur invented by Enlightenment skeptics. Same as the myth that before the so-called “Age of Reason” everyone thought the world was flat, which is nonsense.
Or a bowl of Crispy Critters:
and inhabit it with 2 of every animal,
= = =
Genesis 7
1Then the Lord said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation.
2You shall take with you seven each of every clean animal, a male and his female; two each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female;
3also seven each of birds of the air, male and female, to keep [a]the species alive on the face of all the earth.
Some extras it seems, to eat, and for sacrifices.
Actually, it being nearby to those getting off of it and much later (opportunistically) confusing where you are with where people got actually off the boat can explain that. There’s a reason why the like from Star Trek about never having really heard Shakespeare till you’ve heard it in the original Klingon worked ... placing famous and stories doings in your local context is a very old habit of men.
To Russell My Brother was one of my favorites. I could relate to THE BELT. After my dad removed his a few times, all he had to do was reach for the buckle and I was was both apocalyptic & apologetic.
“Maaa, Dad is watching Gunsmoke, and on Gunsmoke they are drownding little baby kittens.”
“So now I’m watching Froo-Froo-Froofie The Dog.”
My guess, they would say, we were speculating, roll with it.
I’ll take “Outdoor Sun Deck During a 40 Day Flood” for $500, Alex.
And also walking zones would not work. One couldn’t have, say, elephants on one side, with lighter critters on the other. My hunch: sedatives were involved. Or dna samples, who knows.
Most of the water came from below. It didn’t flood via rain it flooded because god left the soaker hose running.
Uh, yeah... Nope!!
Or baby animals that have been weened. (I’m not going to search - but I’m guessing a weened elephant is still pretty large?) Okay - I looked - about 2,000 lbs!
Had one last week. Good stuff!😛
