The fable of Noah
It looks like the fable of Noah has been explained and debunked by science as this schema of the Mediterannean basin being broached at the Gates of Hercules (Gibraltar) explains.
Ah, the majestic power of science over magical belief....

my, arent you well named...
Perhaps there is a long lost / drowned branch of the Wee Frees who had a little church in the (then-dry) basin and took the view that THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN ...
I didn't realise that we had aerial photography on those days. Here's a "schema" of me throwing an apple in the air and thereby debunking the fable of gravity.
1:11 here again, well said 2:23. Of all the silly (and there are many) arguments for evolution - this strikes me as perhaps one of the oddest "No there is noevidence of a flood", "oops yes there is, but it was definately localised" (abscence of proof is not proof!)
just to attack evolutionists (for a change!) how did a creature like the bombardier beetle come about? (the bombardier beetle contains i think 3 chemicals, any two of which would kill the beetle if they were accidentally mixed - evolutionary advantage - i think not!)

I don't know anything about the bombadier beetle but it will be a good bit easier to justify than a chap with a beard on a cloud saying ok, now how about a beetle with three chemicals and if two of them mix, kablooey, and by the way, day after tomorrow is the sabbath so don't you be on any ferries but it's okay to drive your cars, when you invent them. And no prawns! Definitely no prawns. Until you decide you can scrap that one... but no gays! Definitely no gays!
Give me a break.

Did you not know, as every unwashed child of crofting stock in the Southern Isles is aware, that the bombardier beetle evolved in this manner directly as a result over a dispute about a boundary fence. The matter was further complicated by there being a right of way through the fence which gave access to the illegal cutting of peat.
To add insult to injury, the aggrieved beetle decided to sub let part of his common grazing to a former english lesser beetle who wanted to set up a an artists studio. The studio was, of course given a grant by some worms.
So, in order to arm himself properly against any adversary smaller than himself, your man - the beetle - ingested experimental marags rejected by Charley Barley and the rest as they say is history.
Away you 1:11 and your creationist nonsense, the evolutionary answer is all around you.

If there is a great power that supposedly made this world in 6 days, cannot this same great power resolve global warming and save us all from having to put up with wall to wall Copenhagen Conference on every News program?
6:19 that actually is very funny!
by the way - why do we, along with most countries world wide, have seven days in our week? it doesn't fit well into a year (or even a month) Just a point to ponder...(1:11)
