So wait, I do the very simple math to prove how much rainfall it would take to cover Mt. Ararat in 40 days/nights, per the story, and we're talking about bird blood, instead?!
Anyone who thinks a storm over fifty times more powerful than Super Typhoon Haiyan is plausible has never been in a hurricane, or even a strong south Louisiana thunderstorm.
It's really simple. Figure out how many inches tall Mt. Ararat is (if you want to exclude Everest, somehow), then divide by the number of hours in 40 days/nights. It's fifth grader math, at most. Or, alternatively, you could just cover your eyes and hum loudly, like you didn't see it.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
