[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quiz for the Bible thumper, which version of the Bible (or gospel) was this translated from?

One day, a righteous man, performing his morning ritual by the water, found a tiny fish in his hands. The fish, surprisingly, spoke and pleaded for protection from the larger creatures in the river. Taking pity, the man cared for the fish, moving it from a small vessel to a larger one as it rapidly grew. Soon, the fish became too enormous for any container and eventually even the river itself.

As the man released the colossal fish into the ocean, the wondrous creature revealed its divine nature and warned of a devastating flood. It instructed the man to build a great ark, gather the seeds of all plants, and take pairs of all animals to preserve life. The wise one diligently followed these instructions.

When the rains came, the waters rose and consumed the world. The divine fish reappeared, its horn guiding the ark through the turbulent waves, eventually anchoring it on the highest mountain peak. After the waters receded, the man and the surviving creatures emerged to a new world. To repopulate the earth, the man performed a sacrifice, and, in some versions of the story, a woman appeared from the waters. Together, they became the ancestors of the new human race, signifying a fresh start and the cyclical nature of existence.[/quote]The Great Flood of Noah from the book of Genesis  was not translated from an earlier work.

When Noah and family left the ark, their descendants repeated orally what happened.

Throughout the world, many cultures describe a great flood but with details deviating from the truth written in Genesis.

The true account is found in Genesis. All other accounts are variations derived from this account.

Ken Ham and AnswersInGenesis can give you more detail.

There was indeed a global flood. The evidence is clear that there was. You can visit AnswersInGenesis or Christian-Evolution Headlines (crev.info) for more information.

What it comes down to is authority: are you going to believe Jesus and the scriptures he quoted or are you going to believe myths of geology (no global flood) masquerading as science?[/quote]

lol this is too funny.

Damn the evidence, they took it from us.

Again, you are not a real poster, just an above average troll.  But I am enjoying it regardless![/quote] I am not a troll but the “Bible thumper” our beloved Atheist requested a response from.

[i]Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts…For this they [b]willingly are ignorant of[/b], that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished…[/i] —II Peter 3:3

My authority is the Bible. If “science” contradicts the Bible then that science—so called, is erroneous, as is the case of ignorant geologists flapping their arms squawking, “No flood! squaaaaaawk, No flood!”

That is how stupid the geologists look to me, pontificating from their ignorance. I admit I do get some belly laughs reading the otherwise intelligent people natter on about their so-called science, some of which contradicts the Bible. [/quote]

Science often contradicts the Bible because modern science didn't start to unfold until long after the Bible was written.  The Bible is not science and is not meant to be science.  It is a group of stories written long ago, before modern science existed.

Do you also get belly laughs when your doctor diagnoses you or a loved one with a serious disease and tells you how it can be cured?  That is the result of science - not the Bible.[/quote]

She might be one of those Christians who don't take any meds or medical intervention and believe God will heal her. [/quote]

Maybe so -- or they're the type of Christian who prays for scientists to develop a  cure

Please tell us PP -- what type of Christian are you when it comes to medicine??[/quote]
