I read the article at the blog too.
Thanks for posting in full as I wouldn’t have had the pleasure of reading it otherwise.
This is historic.
Thank you, Humblegunner.
The neat part is, pride is a sin. They are trying to co-opt a sin word. LOL on them.
Broke up a pair, did he.....hope he brought extras.
JUST kidding.....hold the rocks and rotten tomatoes.

LOL! No need for rocks when the facts will do: Those creatures were in pairs after all, and they were on the Ark a long time. Time enough to create their own extras!
"Broke up a pair, did he.....hope he brought extras."
The answer to your question is found in Genesis 7:1-2 (Emphasis added):
1. Then the LORD said to Noah, Enter the ark, you and all your household, for you alone I have seen to be righteous before Me in this time.
2. You shall take with you of every CLEAN ANIMAL BY SEVENS, a male and his female; and of the animals that are NOT CLEAN TWO two..."
The answer to your question is simple; Noah was instructed to take SEVEN pair of each of the animals that were denoted as "clean" into the ark and thus provision was made by God for an added number of clean animals necessary for sacrifice. So while one mating pair of animals was broken up, there was an abundant supply of "extras" as it were.
No stones... just biblically answering your question.
Plus, they were in the ark the better part of a year, so there were likely some “extras” born during that time.
Oh isn’t that nice. Jim’s pet came out to play
How about Global Thermonuclear War?
It's also pretty, colorful, and draws in the innocent children who don't understand the hijacking that has occurred, nor what it represents.
They've been using it as bait...
That’s a darned good point, Smokin’ Joe!
Out of the mouths of babes....”Look Papa! Pretty!”
Yep!
Great article and topic. Well deserved blog certification to boot.
Thank you, Servant of the Cross.
I appreciate Scott carrying my columns, as I do Renew America and my “home” website of American Clarion.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you for your kind words. Although every blogger likes hits, I’d rather see good discussion on topics that are of importance to us all, here on FR. I am glad to be a part of this site and feel welcomed by all.
Gina deserves much credit for writing some thought-provoking pieces...even after being removed from the airwaves by a liberal-fearing corporate management team. Keep upt he good work, Gina!!
Thank you too!
