    I am almost willing to bet aguest is in sales for a living...

    Lordy, NO, Mr. M... I couldn't sell water to desert dwellers. Actually, I just recently went back to work, part-time... because, well, my kids are grown... and sitting here posting to you all just doesn't take up enough of my time - LOL! I got 'bored', so I took a job as the Director of Operations for a non-profit organization in my city.

    Shelby in sales... sure. Right.

    Peace to you!

    I wasn't offended, dear one... I was 'tickled'. Me? 'Sell' something? I promise you, a man could be lost in the desert, almost dead from thirst, and I couldn't GIVE him a glass of water. Why? Because I would most probably tell him what's IN the water. He'd most likely... what was it Naeblis said?... 'pass'.

    Peace to you, dear Mr. Moe... and may JAH bless!

    I am not trying to 'convince' you of anything, Naeb. You and every else here are 'free will' agents. I simply relate what I am told... as I am told to. Whether YOU 'hear'... or 'refrain'... is not my concern. I can't 'save' you; I can only point you to the One that can. If, therefore, you 'wish' it... cool. If not... cool.

    My peace remains.

    I haven't read every post in this thread but I don't think the Bible really speaks about a flood in Noah's day that covered the whole earth.

    The account in Genesis was probably written by Noah and was a eye witness account as it apeared to Noah eyes.

    Hey for that matter did Noah even know the world was a spere?

    MrMoe,

    I very much respect your right to believe what you want to about the Bible or God. Before you get too wrapped up in trying to defend your belief in the Bible with science, you might want to read a little from those who have opposing views when it comes to things such as the flood. Try http://www.talkorigins.org/origins/faqs-flood.html

    I'm not saying you have to believe in evolution. I'm not saying that you have to give up faith in the Bible. But there are alternatives (logical ones) to a literalist interpretation of the Bible.

    Have you ever read the thought that the flood may have be a local (but very catastrophic) event? Try here: http://www.religioustolerance.org/ev_noah.htm

    One of the most quoted books on the subject can be purchased through amazon. The reviews are good and can be read here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0684810522/ref=ase_ontarioconsultanA/104-2613002-3926331

    By the way, I do believe in God.
