People actually believe the utter BS lifespans present in the OT? Like, really? Really really?
Man, I can only imagine the diseases these people had, what with livestock and the rodents they attract, and other water-and-airborne diseases they must've been exposed to, not to mention no vaccines, fluctuating food and water supplies....
I mean... if people still believe the earth is flat...
I don't know why, but I still get floored when segments of humanity prove themselves to be this dumb. I'm guessing the actual average lifespan for these people was somewhere around 30-45 years. Which explains a lot of the rules about sex... gotta work fast to increase your tribe's numbers, and women having sex for fun (and risking pregnancy, which could lead to death) could be detrimental to the cause.
