No one has ever told me how the reptiles made it back home, or how the monkeys swam back to S. America.
Noah's Ark was a fable.
Bush's fault, silly!
40 days and nights of rain doesn't cause the world to flood. We've been having that in Boston, and it hasn't hardly flooded the streets.
But you're asking for people to think about the reality of a fairy tale story. I respect those who believe in God, though I don't share that belief, but it's when they expect me to swallow this stuff without question when I think about how many of them laugh at Muslim beliefs here. OK, like two of each animal surviving, including those from the Americas which hadn't been discovered and wouldn't be for centuries, plus a handful of people (their children apparently marrying their cousins to perpetuate the human race, and then somehow founding all of the ethnic types we know) and they somehow got all the animals to the various locations they needed to be in...
Ack, look what happens when you start thinking about it...
Yep. The Bible was written by man, not by God. Humans make mistakes, wrong assumptions, they invent stories. The fairy tale of Adam and Eve is another one - a nice explanation how human life was created. Today, we know (ok, most of us know it) that evolution brought us human life, but that doesn´t exclude the possbility that God gave life and the rules how it evolved (survival of the fittest, etc).
