Genesis 7:10-16 (The Living Bible)
« on: June 04, 2012, 11:49:34 pm »
One week later, when Noah was 600 years, two months, and seventeen days old, the rain came down in mighty torrents from the sky, and the subterranean waters burst forth upon the earth for forty days and nights. But Noah had gone into the boat that very day with his wife and his sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and their wives. With them in the boat were pairs of every kind of animal - domestic and wild - and reptiles and birds of every sort. Two by two they came, male and female, just as God had commanded. Then the Lord God closed the door and shut them in.

One week later, when Noah was 600 years, two months, and seventeen days old ...
                                         
Surely claims for such an advanced age can be verified other than by "faith"/"belief", (otherwise, such claims are specious due to the lack of evidence since 'bible-thumpings' do not constitute a valid evidential reference)?

"Religion is based ... mainly upon fear ... fear of the mysterious, fear of defeat, fear of death. Fear is the parent of cruelty, and therefore it is no wonder if cruelty and religion have gone hand in hand ... My own view on religion is that of Lucretius. I regard it as a disease born of fear and as a source of untold misery to the human race."
-- Bertrand Russell

         1Samuel 17:23

         David and Goliath
       
            David said moreover, " The LORD
         that delivered  me out of the paw of the
         lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he
         will deliver me out of the hand of this
         Phillistine. And Saul said unto David, Go,
         and the lord be with thee.
       
            And Saul armed David with his
         armour, and he put a helmet of brass
         upon his head; also he armed him with a
         coat of mail.

            And David girded his sword upon
         his armour, and he assayed to go; for he
         had not proved it. and David said unto
         Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have
         not proved them. And David put them
         off him.

            And he took his staff in his hand,
         and chose him five smooth stones out of
         the brook, and put them in a shepard's
         bag which he had, even in a scrip; and
         his sling was in his hand; and he drew
         near to the Philistine.
 
            And the Phillistine came on and
         drew near unto David; and the man that
         bear the shield went before him.

            And when the Phillistine looked
         About, and saw David, he disdained
         him: for he was but a youth. and rud-
         dy, and of a fair countenance.

            And the Phillistine said unto David,
         come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto
         the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of
         the field.
 
            Then said David to the Phillistine,
          Thou comest to me with a sword, and
          with a spear, and with a shield: but I
          come to thee in the name of the LORD of
          hosts, the God of the armies of Israel,
          whom thou hast defied.

            This day will the LORD deliver thee
           into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and
           I will take thine head from thee; and I will give
           the carcasses of the host of the Phillis-
           tines this day unto the fowls of the air,
           and to the wild beasts of the earth; that
           all the earth, may know that their is a
           God in Israel.

         1Samuel 17:23

"The foundation of morality should not be made dependent on myth nor tied to any authority lest doubt about the myth
 or about the legitimacy of the authority imperil the foundation of sound judgment and action."
