The story of Noah (in the Bible) is so infuriating...

RE: The story of Noah (in the Bible) is so infuriating...
(April 25, 2015 at 4:16 am)Wyrd of Gawd Wrote: (1) The flood story is a metaphor for a military invasion of the region.  If you read the story you will see that it uses a lot of war metaphors. (2) The Bible even says that the idea of a water flood is BS since Assyria, Persia, Ethiopia, and Arabia existed when Adam & Eve were running around naked if the Garden of Eden and those same places with their same people existed after the Noah's flood.  

(3) Noah was able to survive the enemy invasion and his grandson Nimrod went on to become the big wig in the area, including taking over Assyria and buiding a number of cities there including Nineveh.

(4) The Mount Ararat part indicates that Noah had some positive links to the Hittite kingdom.  

I noted 4 assertions.
And 0 demonstrations.
