some religious humans believe some pretty far-out things... especially if the religion frowns-upon critical thinking and punishes those who ask questions (sometimes shaming them as "non-believers"). after all, if you believe what i believe, why are you questioning the belief?
it is easy to understand how myths and stories arose from events that were not easy to explain. death, taxes, tornados, hurricanes, floods...
similar to the santa claus myth, some humans tend to (uh) 'create' other stories to explain the myth. we end-up with santa's helpers, chimney-delivery of toys, flying reindeer, etc., etc.
with that in mind, let's ask google or chat-gpt some questions about one of the most famous stories of all time: the great flood.
1. his-storically speaking, how many people were alive on earth at the time of the flood?
2. how many innocent women, children, babies and unborn babies died in the flood? even if it was only a few, it seems rather 'stern' to murder (even one) innocent human (or kitten, or puppy, or bambi).
3. how can two of each animal fit on a boat? if some animals eat other animals, wouldn't one meal (for one species) completely destroy another species?
4. can a species (e.g. wolves/dogs) be propagated by just two animals? what if one of them identified as asexual? :)
while many more questions could be asked about this his-story, it might be more important to listen to the human answers to the 4 questions above.
what are some of the answers that some humans believe-in (even though the answers seem preposterous)?
