Zone1 Another question to ponder

[ding]

More of your feelz.

Nope. Objective truth.

I ask legitimate questions,

No, you don't.

you just cant answer

But I have. It was you that couldn't answer my answers. All you did was hit the funny button. You're a joke.

Ignorant cultures coming up with a flood story means nothing. Floods happen all around the world. And they just blamed gods, because they had no other option. They didnt understand natural phenomena

You can't tell me that the Chinese flood story is not connected to the Biblical one

It most certainly is.



Again, you would have to do some study on prehistoric archeology and ancient myths around the world to be able to understand what I am talking about to get the big picture.



There are common themes in the myths of ancient cultures around the world. For example, they speak of "beings" that come from above who gave mankind knowledge about mathematics and architecture and astronomy, etc. The Bible refers to them as the Nephilim, and Sumerians refer to them as the Anunnaki, and the Aztecs refer to them as the Quinametzin, etc. Then a global catastrophe occurred that they all refer to as the "Great Deluge" that destroyed almost all of them.

And if you study prehistoric archeology, what you will find is that prehistoric people were building things that modern day humans would have a very hard time replicating due to the complexity of the architecture and the massive blocks that they used. Then around 9,000 to 12,000 years ago, cataclysm stopped it all across the globe, as archeology is slowly discovering them around the world where they all stopped at about the same time and simply vanished.

Take the pyramids, for example. My guess is that they are far older than what is thought. I think most agree that the Sphynx if far older than the pyramids, with the head later modified from its ancient origins. But the interesting thing is, Egyptians tried to build later pyramids that are simply inferior to the Great pyramids that we are all familiar with, as if such ancient technology was lost to them. And you see this around the globe in places like South America as you see prehistoric constructions built with such technological precision, it defies explanation, as later constructions look like crap compared to them.

It simply makes no sense. In fact, many think that aliens came down to try and explain away the notion that prehistoric man was more sophisticated than mankind that came later. Take the temples of the Greek and Roman gods, for example. If you study them, you will find that the foundations of these constructions to not match the rest of the construction, with the foundation being built with massive blocks with highly technical precision. My guess is that people came across the foundations of these constructions, not knowing where they came from, and attributed it to "the gods" because it must have been built by superior intellects, so they build upon them and gave these "gods" a name as they used their temples to worship them.

But it is not just the myths that parallel themselves around the world, such as the giants and floods and beings that came from above, it is the prehistoric constructions themselves that parallel each other. For example, there are pyramids build all across the glove, with perhaps the most built in China of all places.

They simply share too many similarities to logically dismiss the notion that they are all tied together in some form or fashion.

Funny stuff arguing about fictions concerning one religion among so many. Face it folks, life is natural, enjoy it, you ain't gonna know your dead, so enjoy the now.

Why did god make a 600 year old man build the ark, instead of just popping one into existence, like he did everything else?
I get its about testing loyalty and obedience and such, or so I have seen explained. But then another question arises.
If god is omniscient, he didnt need to test Noah. He would have already known.

What makes you even believe that there was a Noah, etc. etc.?

The Bible aka OT and the Torah are a self-written book, by Hebrews over the course of ca. 500 years - who constructed a fake history (whilst taking known historic legends/accounts of other civilizations) to lend credence to their fictions novel - solely invented to lay a "religious based claim" on a fictions "holy land" promised to them - whilst robbing (conquering) it from the Canaanites.

You can't tell me that the Chinese flood story is not connected to the Biblical one

Which one? - since they got many flood stories - and they are ALL centered around the Chang Jiang and Huang Ho rivers - well known for their partial devastating effects - and they are regarded to be the cradles of Chinese civilization. So logically there are numerous flood legends - but none refers to a GLOBAL flood.

So god made him labor for decades so he could learn how to build a boat?

Noah dwelt on this EVERY DAY and he GOD'S Warning message to the world.
They had the OPPORTUNITY to repent, but they didn't. They were left without excuse, just as you are TODAY

Well ****, now you tell me.

It's a mystery. No stop your questioning and just obey.

If you obey eventually the mysteries will become clear to you.
