"I also get a bit chafed at punishing trillions of bunnies with terror and violent death for the momentary disobedience of a couple of -- what amounts to -- children. I have trouble with these stories even as parables."

I really have trouble figuring out what spiritual lesson we should draw from the Noah tale. It reminds me of a German Stuble-Peter story.

At it's most fundamental, the Noah myth basically says, "listen to God and everything will turn out all right."
