Ok, so this is completely random because I don't feel like writing about stuff that is actually happening in my life.


I thought of this while shaving. Makes logical sense to me. If the bible is word for word true, then noah must have put two of each species of animal on a boat. Given that there are 10 million species of land animal, and assuming a generous 1/1000 of them are mate recognition species (a more general classification meaning they will recognize one another as mates, as with dogs, cats, cows, etc.), there would still be more than 10,000 species for him to collect, and that's ignoring birds, fish and insects. No boat could hold this, no person could collect this.

Logically, there are two possible options:

Bible=False -- Couldn't have been done, therefore the bible isn't quite level
Bible=True -- Noah did it because there were fewer species, hence, evolution=true and creationism=false, hence bible=false. At least, word-for-word-bible=false.

Uhh...

Thing 1: The Bible was constrained to a pretty small geographic area, if you recall. There's no mention of China in the Bible, or of the New World, or Australia, so the flood could've not been the whole of the earth, and that way Noah's biological expeditionary vessel couldve worked...NOT!

There werent fewer species, cmon, who are you kidding? there were just different ones.

IT WAS A REALLY BIG BOAT, REALLY BIG, AND NOAH HAD THE MOST POWERFUL BROADSPECTRUM ANIMAL BAIT KNOWN TO MAN
