I heard two people talking about this the other night, and was wondering what you guys thought. Is being gay in your DNA, or is it 'acquired' through your life?

So yeh, enlighten me...

Of course not and I don't deny this.

What a curiously ambiguous statement.
Remember - : "And all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered. The waters rose and covered the mountains to depth of more than twenty feet."

Perhaps. But: "By the twenty-seventh day of the second month [after the year you mentioned[/I]] the earth was completely dry."

So in a year and nearly three month, all the flood waters - that went up twenty feet above the highest mountain - had gone.
No.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Yes, I have. I've also heard about that bit where the clouds condense back into water (ie. rain). I like how you ignored this when it was pointed out a few posts ago.

When water evaporates, it doesn't just cease to exist.

Forty days of continuous, very heavy rain, the first the world had ever seen would certainly build up a flood.

Not all of it would have been evaporated, but enough for it to be safe to leave the ark.

Do you have any idea how much water it would take to completely cover the land - up to the top of the tallest mountain? A lot.

And if the sun could evaporate all that away in a year, the earth would be completely dry. It makes no sense.

Sunlight does not absorb water, or cause it to simply vanish out of existence.
If you can't even grasp *that* simple concept, there is *no* hope for you.

I really, really would love to know your science exam results..........

Exactly. This is the story of the water cycle, which completely changed following the flood.

There you go, any water the ground did not absorb, the sunlight did, over about a year. Simple.

Christianity didn't even exists until centuries later! Noah and his family had many ancestors, the sheer number of them, means that not all of them decided to follow God.
