Antisemitism?
is that your problem? You were the one that denied that the Hebrews were not God's people. I do wish that you were not so inconsistent.

Antisemitism?
I try to avoid the bad ones. You sound as if you binge on them.There are good and bad spirits. Not like I'd ask you which is which.
Let's recap your position then..correct if there is some error.I try to avoid the bad ones. You sound as if you binge on them.

You think Mary got pregnant by a man and that the bible is wrong.
You think Paul was mentally ill to some degree.
You think bible prophecy was not reaaalllly prophesy but fraudulently written after the fact.
You think if we believe Genesis, that makes God a liar..
Now you say you avoid the bad spirits.
OK.
You are claiming that God is a liar when you believe the myths of Genesis[/QUOTE]No, that is inaccurate and more than a bit dishonest.
You are the one claiming some of the verses written as prophecy are fraud.
God's word is not to be believed as truth then according to you.
If they were written after the fact that is what they would be.
What do you mean? You are very confused. You are making the blasphemous mistake of thinking that the Bible is the "word of God".
Since all of the evidence out there tells us that the stories of Genesis are myth then you have only two possibilities. That they are a myth and the Bible is not meant to be taken literally. Of if you want to claim that they really happened then you are saying that God planted false evidence.
That would make God a liar. You are claiming that God is a liar by insisting that the myths of Genesis are true.
No. The lie was in interpreting what we see by your beliefs.You can't have it both ways. If those myths are really true then your God lied by trying to hide the fact that they happened.
Let's add that to your list then. You say that it is Blasphemy to say that Scripture is from God!
Nothing planted of false at all. Your problem is how you look at the evidence through your beliefs.
So Jesus, who referred to Genesis, and the apostles and writers of the New Testament who believed it are all liars. OK. We'll add that to your list.
No. The lie was in interpreting what we see by your beliefs.
Nonsence. I´m just questioning your lack of religious understanding and the "hatred" part is your very own when being questioned on the historic and logical facts in the natural creational proces.So now we see some sort of historical revisionism coupled with some weird gender agenda underpinned by the usual hatred of God. Whatever...
Jesus used all sorts of literary tools.
I have never shown contempt for God. Not once. I have contempt for your false version of God, but any sane person would feel the same way.As an unbeliever and person who has demonstrated a contempt for God and His people and word, it is not hard to see why you would call whatever you like a literary tool.
Except no one is 'questioning' me on some 'natural creational' processes! I would think adaptation is something that created creatures do, rather than some creation process.Nonsence.

Jesus never asked me to. Why would I care about every little Tom, Dick, and Harry of a god some people worship?Obviously you have NO other religious informations but the biblical dogmas in the religious and mind-limited patriarchal heritage in western culture
. Even native people all over the world have a better and natural understanding of these issues.
The topic of this thread is the mythical magical Ark. Your belief in that myth is where you clearly call your God a liar. Why do you show contempt for your own God?Except no one is 'questioning' me on some 'natural creational' processes!

Then they are free to demonstrate that here.
Even though the Bible is not literal history there is a basis in history for may of the events of history. Even though the flood as described in the Bible did not happen there was likely a catastrophic event that the account was based on,
Based on the archaeological and geology evidence, and earliest flood accounts, I believe it is related to memories of catastrophic flooding of the Tigris Euphrates River Valley. Because of the potential of wide spread catastrophic flooding in these valleys up to hundreds of square miles can be flooded particularly in the lower flood plain and delta, it could appear to the people in the valley as the world was indeed mostly covered in water.
I will provide archaeological and geology (geomorphology) references to support this.
Many cultures live along navigable waterways. Or on flood plains where the best crops grow. The tend to flood at times. A strong flood will leave a story behind it, regardless of where it occurred.How does that account for all of the flood myths from other cultures?

I agree and may have misunderstood your post. Sorry.Which was the point of my question. Flood stories are not unique.
