fucking exhausted. so im gonna fill most of this shit with scriptures and what not. man o man do i hate monday's, i go to sleep after work friday and wake up monday... not really but it sure does seem like it. got off at 420 this lovely morning and it's supposed to snow tomorrow. this weather sucks fat nutts. it has been brought to my attention that my blogs have a lot of profanity in them and i'd like to apologize to anyone who reads them and takes offense to all of the vulgarity. seriously though i don't care the least if it pisses you off. don't fucking read it. the use of the "f" word is sort of similar to "really" for you. if someone said hey buddy your fired, some people may say really, i'd say fuck! or god dammit! or COCK SHIT BALLS! i've been ranting all this shit to write for 4 hours on the road tonight, i got home and had a total brain queef.
17 For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and as the waters increased they lifted the ark high above the earth. 18 The waters rose and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. 19 They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered. 20 The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than twenty feet. [b] , [c] 21 Every living thing that moved on the earth perished—birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. 22 Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died. 23 Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; men and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds of the air were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.
24 The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days.
so.... turtles, alligators, ducks, snakes, frogs, fish... they all died? creatures that live and breathe on both land and water, or at least in water. not to mention many others I'm sure. is it possible that 40 consecutive days of rain could cover a mountain? kind of seems like seattle and london should be under water as well. this is one of those scriptures that i have to scratch my head over. lucky for noah he was the only man on the planet earth that owned a flotation device such as a boat.

Wednesday marked the 24th straight day of measurable rain in Seattle, tying it for the third-longest streak ever. The Dec. 19 start to the streak also means that, true to Seattle form, it rained on every day during the winter holiday break for the area's schools -- but then it kept right on going after school resumed, so "winter break" is no answer to our riddle.
And this hasn't been just the usual Seattle drizzle, we've had some pretty impressive rainfall through the streak -- 14 of the 24 days have been greater than 0.25", and seven of those days were over a half inch. Now, the official record for consecutive days of rain is 33 days set in 1953
so, in 1953 it rained for 33 days. with no serious threat of losing all of the land or lands creatures in seattle. depressing and miserable? i'm sure but it didn't wipe out all but 2 people, and i don't believe any of them were in an ark. bartender please fill my glass for me.
why do i love this song??

seeing as you're married to a RAIN ENGINEER, i think i can speak accurately in saying that this flood is a crock of shit. the probable maximum flood in austin for instance, is approx. 53.4 inches in 72 hours. although rain is not distribuated linearly, if it was and rained for 30 days, you'd have about 1602 inches of rain, or 133.5 feet. if this happened in every single part of the world, you STILL wouldn't have enough rain to cover mount everest.
ReplyDeletealso there is absolutely not geologic evidence of a universal flood. if it had really happened, there would be evidence. some layer of strata consistent aaaall over the world. but there isn't. because again, noah's ark/flood didn't happen. sometimes i think the bible is a test of stupidity. like someone wrote the most absurd things he could think of in a book and wants to see how many people are idiotic enough to believe it. how many people are weak enough to be brainwashed into believing every little thing it says.
but here's the clincher with noah's ark. if he brought 2 of everything with him, did he bring 2 of like, 15 million species of everything? if not, and he just brought maybe 5000 breeds, how do people explain new species? did god simply create these new species at a later date? no, it would've been the hand of evolution.
you can't have your cake and eat it too, you crazy ass christians.
I have to say I really like this post. I like your thoughts on it. Its funny hearing your perspective and at the same time its so true.
ReplyDeleteAfter thinking about it now, I feel like it wasn't supposed to be taken literally (although its funny when you look at it literally because so many other people DO live by this kind of crap). We read the bible for one of my religion classes and there was a similar book created BEFORE the bible that was actually meant to be fictional. Weird how someone then basically created a story very similar and hundreds of years later its "the word of God"? Someone took it a little far. Its kind of like the game telephone when you whisper something into the person next to you's ear and by the end of the circle the word or phrase is completely different. Word of mouth just doesn't cut it anymore. The bible is like a .com site. You can read it and believe everything it says, but unless its a .org or a .gov its not reputable enough to be referenced in a research paper. So like Jill said, where is this evidence? How can we have records of EVERYTHING else, but no reference of these hundreds of stories in the bible?
My big question though is...how did the bible get written the way it was, when this supposedly all happened way back when nobody could even write? We have proof of evolution and we know that cavemen used to write in symbols and pictures and stuff. Who translated this crap anyway? How did it ever get this far?
