That's not exactly how Noah's Ark happened. It happened like this: The entire world was disobeying God, they were having homosexual relationships, %@*#s, pre-marital sex, all that jazz. Oh, and since when does Religion =/= Logic exactly?
Christianity is actually a very logical religion. Stop looking at it half empty.

And Noah was an alcoholic. That doesn't sound very saintly to me.
In any case, there wouldn't have been much of an "entire world," seeing as how Noah was only a few generations after Adam. What's the point of flooding the entire global sphere when everyone lived in the fertile crescent?
I think you misunderstand logic, let me explain:
Logic:
Illogic:
"Christianity is actually a very logical religion."
Actually, Confucianism and Buddhism make much more sense. In Confucianism, you try to lead as noble a life as you can for the sake of it and to set an example for others, and in Buddhism you're to practice tolerance, compassion, and to let go of materialism to end suffering for yourself and others.
In Christianity, you're supposed to worship a jealous, murderous god who claims he is loving because he let people eat fruit from a tree when he knew they would, and then made a covenant with people knowing they would break it, and then later sacrificed himself to himself to make himself change the covenant he made. ...It really doesn't make much sense at all.
Homosexuality and pre-marital sex and all that jazz are rampant now, what's God doing? Fuck all, that's what. Why? Because there is no such thing as God. He doesn't exist.
Christianity is full. Full of bullshit.
"The entire world was disobeying God, they were having homosexual relationships, %@*#s, pre-marital sex, all that jazz"
And God, being perfect, omnipotent and omniscient had to kill them all instead of reasoning with them and convincing them to change their ways?
I love the fundie xtian view of God - all powerful, can do literally anything...but always chooses murder and genocide as his solution to everything. Fucking brilliant.
"The entire world was disobeying God, they were having homosexual relationships, %@*#s, pre-marital sex, all that jazz."
Even the plants?
For thousands of years Christian theologians have tried to stick a veneer of logic onto their religion ,but ultimately they have to resort to "God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform ","Our minds are inadequate to fathom God's mind" and "Bugggered if I know, pal"
Christianity is actually a very logical religion.'
"Oh, and since when does Religion =/= Logic exactly? "
Do you think Fruscainte means "jazz" in the literal sense? Because I have to admit, I don't really like jazz, and I feel that if there were evil in the world, it would certainly find a home in musical improvisation.
So, after the flood, no one ever committed homosexual acts or engaged in pre-marital sex and "all that jazz" ever again? Obviously not; otherwise, the flood would have been a failure and we all know omni-max fundie god can do no wrong.
Then, WTF are you christaholics always bitching about?
The sex and jazz which scares you so much obviously cannot exist and is only a figment of your imagination. Or, it was put into your minds by Satan. Yep, that must be it.
"Oh, and since when does Religion =/= Logic exactly?"
Well, I don't know... might it be FROM THE FUCKING START?

And if I tried reading the Bible with half an empty mind, I'd lose SAN points more surely than the concept of a [i]cute[/i] Nyarlathotep.[/b]
Christianity is logical like Siberia in January is a tropical paradise. Furthermore, pre marital sex hasn't exactly disappeared since the (non-existent) flood, and I can speak from plenty of delightful personal experience here.
I'm not homosexual, but I'm pretty sure that is still with us. The way fundies keep ranting wildly against it is proof enough, as if we needed more proof.
"they were having homosexual relationships, %@*#s, pre-marital sex, all that jazz"
The Bible says they were 'wicked.' It doesn't specify HOW they were wicked, and whether it was thought, word or deed.
Your fantasies about jazz say more about you than about pre-Deluge mankind...
Twisting mythology for homophobia. Spamming a gaming forum with bigotry and threats. Hypocrisy too, because the Bible says what is supposed to happen to those who add/suppress/alter it. Including Jazz in it may be evidence of racism.
But since I know that it's only human tradition, I may as well parody the above.
"God saw that there was bigotry, including homophobia, so he destroyed most humans. Any excuse was good for his blood lust."
But to understand better the context of the original mythology, one should also look at the Epic of Gilgamesh. There was an evil god who wanted to destroy humanity and another who wanted to defend/rescue it. Then "Noah" (Utnapishtim) became like a demi-god, an immortal.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
