The Red Sea? (Or "sea of reeds" depending on your interpretation, ofc.) Okay...I didn't realize I was talking to a literalist here...
Do you know what I have learned from this thread? That theists are capable of rationalizing ANYTHING when it comes to God. No matter how ridiculous.
I AM a literalist - which means that I look for the intended meaning of the author. (It's raining cats and dogs means it is raining very hard.)
What you probably meant to say is that I take the scriptures literally. (It's raining cats and dogs means cats and dogs are falling from the sky.)
And you would be wrong about me.
Yes, that is what I meant. Wow, queen of snark on the forum?! I'm not sure how I feel about that title!
