Re: Bible stories to be interpreted literally??

If Moses only saved the animals around him that he and his family needed to survive and the earth was covered entirely by water by whatever means, how then did all the other millions of species survive?

For that matter, why would a perfect God who could do whatever he wished not get it right to begin with and have to wipe the slate clean and start all over again?

Too many things don't make sense when you try to take too literal of an interpretation of the often changed and edited Bible.  It appears the message you are passing on from Moreless in (self-imposed) exile is saying as much.

And, hey, no fair pulling out the old "Who are we to question God" argument.  That is akin to the ol' "Miracle card".

Whatever may or may not have happened regarding the big flood, it sure is one rife for argument between literalists and questioners.  But it surely is hard to have a discussion or debate when one side trys to look at logic and science and the other just says "cause the Bible says so" or "God works in mysterious ways" and the like.

The Noah's ark scenario also lends itself to a bit of humor too. Given the futility of debate between the two sides, I vote for the humor.
