Religion

You keep talking trash about Silicians Lauren, Gundy and her Catholic mafia friends are gonna come round your house! 😱

It is REMARKABLY loose talk just to say the biblical flood took place just because many civilisations have legends about floods.

nono... there is nothing biblical about a flood, what I ment is that almost every civilization and almost every religion talks about a flood, because of that (they are situated in Asia, America, Europe etc.) you can say that a flood did take place

No, you can say that many early civilisations had experienced the problems of flooding. Very different thing.

they all said there was a big flood, not just a small one where they had troubles with, but one that was wiping out almost everything

They make mythological references to floods as global disasters. They say the same about volcanoes and earthquakes. Great natural disasters get exaggerated. There is no agreement on time scale either.

Like I say, loose talk.

almost all the dates match eachother (don't ask the date, I don't know it anymore), we're not talking about christian-muslim, but also Indians with the same date

How very weird; none of them even had an accurate way of measuring dates from so long ago for you to make such a statement.

the kings/emperors at the moment, the "year of ...", the "story of my fathers grandfather...", ...

it's indeed a difficult process of that, but they have menaged to find that out.
belief is that it came with the melting of the icecaps, if I remember correctly

All very vague and loose talk. Much mythological stuff- the provenance of which is very questioanable anyway- is just set in a dateless past.

There is nowhere near enough to come to a consensus on this.

indeed, there are people who think of one big flood and there are as many people who say it were little ones at a fast rate, others say it's not related, others say it's non-existing.

but myth can always have something historical correct

So Tex, you're saying all my friends have bent noses and wear pinstripe suits ?

Well, I'm not denying that yerss, just you seemed to have stated it as fact. Now you aren't, so all is well.

my apoligies for that, I was stating a theory I believe in while others are out there too

I saw something about a scientific explanation for the parting of the Red Sea. Had something to do with tides and an earthquake or something.....

I question the value of trying to find a scientific explanation for something like that. As I think I have said before, as these are things we hardly have great hostoric or archaelogical evidence about, trying to rationalise them is rather pointless. In the end, either you have faith or you don't but going around the Boible trying to prove if things in it could or could not have happened rather misses the point.

And Moses split the sea!

What's the Mormon religion about?

ToMacco should convert to a Mormonism!
