There are parallel stories the Genesis flood narrative matches that in Gilgamesh so closely that "few doubt" that it derives from a Mesopotamian account.[24] What is particularly noticeable is the way the Genesis flood story follows the Gilgamesh flood tale "point by point and in the same order", even when the story permits other alternatives.

i know..so long as we can crack on together..these things are always going to be there to cause debate. Got the capitalist part...from thin air bro, if i am to be honest.
Like Adam and Eve. Would mean the 3rd generation was the product of incest if literally true. The stories are allegorical, only simple minded yanks think there is any literal truth in old testament stories
Would that be because you talk bollocks you pretentious self righteous prick, please don't put me on ignore please pretty please Typical chav....
Awww would that be because I pick up the **** you talk and you don't like it because I don't massage your chavvy ego.... If twats like you are the moral norm then **** it...are you too stupid to even realise why you put someone on ignore? I know the reason because I stood up to a **** like you belittling people with beliefs thinking you have some superior intelligence, when in fact you have **** all to go on apart from rants at people with belief like your earlier posts.....
Absolutely. Here in the US a lot of people think the Bible is literal and 100% true and happened. They use the ark story (and the fact that many cultures have flood myths) as "proof" that the Bible is literally true.
You're doing a pretty good impression then. As for my point about the surviving victims - you can put your emotional energy into moaning on the internet or you can use that same energy and do some good with it. The first way helps nobody, including yourself. The second way can help raise money or get retailers to donate food, clothes etc. for those who need them with the added bonus it may prove to be a cathartic exercise for you.
Really, ok clever chav do provide these evidence that this is the case, instead of talking bollocks... Same as you believe in your bat **** idea of there being no God, exist by chance right.... Twats like you will be long gone and religion will still exist like it or not...again your opinion and I don't that has any place on Earth either! Should have realised earlier you depend on the popularity to see whether something is right or not, oh well some people just cant use their own brain..
He doesn't even have clue what he believes inn Atheism is the new religion the likes of Dawkins are the new prophets for people like the chavvy twat...as if any of these lot have found something to disprove existence of God.... Probably doesn't even know Bible well enough let alone Qur'an and here is giving lectures about how wrong it all is according to the world view of the Chav! He doesn't like challenges, just wants people to high five him and agree...guy has issues with anger and specifically with believers of any faith it seems...
We are averaging a terrorist attack In western Europe on a weekly basis now. Someone said it was the same in the 80s and 90s that's simply not true. Almost all of them were carried out by followers of one particular Ideology but it's rude to point that out ? We are so British that if a few bearded lunatics drive over people and run down the street screaming "This is for Allah " we should apologise for staring at them as it may offend them. If we can get through the end of Ramadan without any more terrorist attacks it would be a miracle but we won't. I hate Ideologies that trigger these morons to murder, not Muslims can you understand that? You think me turning up to a grieving family in Manchester with a picnic basket and happy rainbow T shirt is going to stop the mother having nightmares about brown people blowing themselves up and ripping their little girl's head off with old nuts and bolts ? I would doubt that very much and just because it's not politically correct to point fingers at the ones that keep on doing this ,not talking about it is even more dangerous. Now pop back to your safe space and carry on making your United against terrorism posters .
Religion debates on here always end up the same way.... People should show a bit of respect for each others views, and that works both ways. People who have faith must be able to accept that non believers will pick holes in their scripture, equally non believers should respect that people have 'faith' and it overrides any seemingly obvious anomalies in the text of their scripture.
I don't really get into arguments with people in real life about it anymore. Only on here, and only when I get a little soap boxy (which I tend to do from time to time). My views haven't changed. I will always respect people. But I can never respect religious views, purely because I feel they are a burden to the advancement of the human race.
So is Love Island but the ****ing thing is still on every night and getting 1.6 million viewers. We're ****ed mate just give in and drink lots.
So your affiliation is now to western world not just UK and you question why Muslims have affiliation with other Muslims, but think aren't you... Why don't you go ask the Iraq's, Libyan's, Palestinian's and others what ideology destroyed their infrastructure and left them to ruins, a hot bed for terrorists created, helped and funded the Western Europe and US and then left the people to rot.. They are so Muslims that if they get a few bombs dropped on them from unmanned aircraft and then be told its done for democracy and few collateral damage is worth it they shouldn't question it may offend the bombers! Same can be said from the other side but you only see your side of the story... Again same can be said of Palestinians and others where it has been happening for decades but that's not an issue...just thinking about and caring one side of the story will never resolve the issues.. Again one side of the story...
Mate you really need to study your facts. While Christianity is on the decline in Europe and the US, it is growing rapidly in S America, Asia and Africa with the number of Christians around the world nearly quadrupled in the last 100 years, from about 600 million in 1910 to more than 2 billion in 2010. Muslim numbers are growing even faster.
Who gives a **** about South America? And thats people who claim to be Christians, not practicing Christians.
I don't have a problem with people having debates and questioning peoples belief with their reasoning and vice versa....I respect others as they respect me but I don't turn the other cheek... This wasn't a debate though if people are honest with themselves, this was a rant at people with belief from the Chav, change those rants and say it was from a believer Christian/Muslim whatever and aimed at people with no belief, would the people be high fiving and making light of the rants or would they be challenging those rants and saying its extreme views? people like him are keyboard warriors and hide their inherent hatred well, the mask slips here and there and I have challenged him in the past and he didn't like it put me on ignore same as now, do I care no but I will speak out for the truth regardless how popular the person is to others.
