But then, you can call me the worlds biggest sceptic anyway.

Not a believer in the ark myself but am willing to believe there was a flood way back in history.

I see some religious apologist's are appearing on the site. Using personal attacks does not help you your cause. I make no apolgy in using rationale thinking when is comes to myth debunking. Below is a site that may help some here 'move on'.

Hey Chris,

I have my beliefs and others have theirs and I reckon that is perfectly fine. I will defend their right to their beliefs and opinions, always, just as much as I will defend my right to have my beliefs and opinions. Any comments I make are not intended to change anyone's beliefs, as only they can do that, and are made in the spirit of free and open discussion, which this forum is for, at least, that is what I thought it was. Nor are any comments, in any way, are a personal attack on anyone's beliefs, I would never do that, at least, not intentionally. Besides, it would be a very dull world if we all had the same ideas and would make for very short discussions on this type of forum.

Through discussing ideas, if we are lucky, we grow as individuals, as we expand our horizons and consider new ideas and concepts.

At least, we are allowed to have an opinion in this country, and for that I am truly thankful. Furthermore, we are also very lucky indeed to be able to have a forum where we can express different ideas, without fear.

Cheers Peter
