No, I actually think you guys are quite smart, but my point is the way Genesis describes how ALL the earth was just at its lowest point. Literally NO ONE except Noah and his family were good. Any of us, if we created something beautiful that turned on us and completely corrupted our original design, would destroy it. God, being infinitely holy, has a very different sense of what corruption looks like, but the corruption and awfulness in Genesis right before the flood makes out a world that was as bad as possible. Think of the most disgusting stuff people can do, and imagine EVERYONE doing those things, ALL THE TIME. Wouldn't you just be done with the whole thing? Doesn't God seem more merciful, actually wanting to wipe the slate clean despite having ZERO obligation to do so?
On a completely unrelated note, I know we obviously have our disagreements, but I hope you guys all have lovely Thanksgivings with your families and/or friends wherever you may be.
I accidentally added this at the end of another post, BUT I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving with family and/or loved ones.
And yet here again you're treating us like we're idiots.
Aside from how psychopathic your post is, you also make up shit that's not in the Bible. Where in the Bible does it say the world was at its most evil ever and, therefore, the flood? And that everything they did was the most disgusting ever? It doesn't say that. It says rather that the world was evil and that people thought only evil things all the time. Subtle differences in meaning and in reason as for why God flooded the earth.
