Explain. What do the animals represent? And why does everything die except Noah and his three sons?
It's supposed to be about rebirth and water washing away the impurities for a fresh start. I don't think every single detail of the story represents something.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
