In your Post # 42, you wrote to me:

Does it not occur to you that it is a fable, and that much of the bible is fables, not to be taken literally>

So, tell me how all the animals of the world were on the ark? Or do you only want to be selective in you literal interpretation of the bible?

Keep believing fables, I only wish I was telling them to you and got you to tithe to me because you will believe anything without doing any thinking.

Take a DEEP breath.

May I respectfully suggest you do some reading before you froth-off?

from my post # 15: Does it not occur to people that the Bible was written by people who knew nothing of the existence of of other continents? That the 'all the world' flood covered their known part of the world...therefore, it was "all the world" to them?...

and further: my post# 25: The "WHOLE WORLD" to the people who wrote Genesis was a whole lot smaller than the Whole World -

They hadn't an inkling about most of the other continents, After all, if you sailed too far to sea, you would fall off the edge...there was no North/Central/South America to them, nor Australia - as far as they were concerned. They probably had no idea there was a land that would become England...etc In other words, their WHOLE WORLD could flood without it affecting the Whole World

and in your post #49 you wrote:

Do you believe in the 5,000 year old earth story too? What about Jonah spending time inside a whale? Or are you a literalist only part-time?

Take THREE deep breaths. It would seem you read my posts without comprehension...or you have such an abhorrence of the BIBLE that your anger overrides reasonable discussion. I have reread my posts and cannot see anything that should create such ire. I respond to your posts not to answer you nor try to convince you of anything - I value my time - but for the benefit of others who may have read your little fits and wonder what the heck I wrote.

You accuse me of believing anything without doing any thinking - pretty broad brush. I could write a book about all the reading and research and 'thinking' I have done over the past 5+ decades about the Ark. This forum, however, provides room only for snippits.

But one does wonder - even think - about why you are so frothy about something you don't even believe in...one wonders, but not enough to care.
