These atheists are right, no, it is not trolling.

Once again my well intended liberals don't get the difference between bigotry and criticism.
This time, the flood myth and Ken Ham's theme park.

1. The flood never happened and scientists unfortunately constantly have to say "No it did NOT happen as that book claims it did." It isn't just this atheist group saying the story didn't happen. REAL scientists agree.
2. But even if one want's to call it metaphor, it is still a vile story.
Now here is why.
In real life, no sane parent would punish their kid by drowning them, not even if they were in the wrong. And even with death row inmates, we would not take them to an Olympic sized pool and chain them with cement and or rocks and drown them in the deep end. And even if you want to claim it is the fault of humanity, that would have included humans, women, children and babies and men, whose only crime would have picking the wrong god. When the cruise ship sank in the Mediterranean the Captain and the company were held responsible for those deaths. Now, if God didn't want humans to die in that flood, who set up the game in the first place? Who was the captain of the entire planet in that story? No, this is blaming the victim.
And any doctor or ME can tell you that drowning is one of the most painful ways to die. Now, again, if they want to claim this story is true, this isn't corrective punishment, it is an act of revenge, and not just on one individual, but millions. If that is not genocide, then I don't know what is.
3. But one lucky family survived. Ok fine. But it still scientifically remains that if one wants to claim that the gene pool would be severely limited.
There is no polite way to say, that this story is not only flat out scientifically wrong, it is 100% immoral on top of that. I agree that it does offend Christians to have it put like that, but we don't do that out of hate, we do that to get more people to consider that their logic is flawed. The truth can be ugly, but if you are brave enough to face it, that is where one grows and learns.
