when God promised he won't destroy mankind by flood again?

PhilX

No, he only destroyed all of it except one family. That's not much use to the dead ones. They must have been vegetarian for a while. If they had eaten any of the animals before they had a chance to breed they would have become extinct. Then there's the problem of inbreeding and an almost non-existent gene pool. I am sure the ancient Greeks wouldn't have come up with such a logistically stupid story, and expected it to be taken as a real event.

You forgot the Hebrew bible. And I understand other faiths have their own version.

I didn't 'forget' anything. I just happen to come from a culture that rams bible stories down children's throats. Religious tomes of any persuasion are of little or no interest to me.

I'm not concerned.

Caught in your own lies. And what does being a veggie have to do with drowning?

Can't tell the difference between your lies and the truth. And when you resort to name calling, others will think you don't have any good arguments.

No, I think Veggi. just resorts to name calling because she likes to. It makes her feel macho.

You are both retarded. Philex refuses to say where this 'lie' is. Is he saying that I HAVE read every religious book? That they really DO interest me? I don't see anything that could be called a 'lie'. He's just trying to be a fuckwit as usual. Why would I need to lie on here anyway? I'm hated on here because I'm honest.

I don't hate you veg, if it's any consolation.

Ahem, I don't think you're hated on here for that reason.
