Again, my point isn't that we should be using the Bible as the source of governmental workings, my point is that, by definition, Obama is not a Christian.

Futhermore, you contradict yourself by saying that a person should follow the society's feeling of what is moral and by saying that previous majority's beliefs were immoral.  I gave the example of majority choices that you would disagree with (and would rebel against, I imagine) then say we should follow the majority anyway.  And why should they follow the majority, anyway?  Who decided that, the majority?

Finally, no, the Bible doesn't equate pi to be 3 (yes, I know what passage you're referring to), why would a parasite take up much romm on the ark, and it wasn't a pair of every species, it was a pair of every kind (but that's a different argument).

So then how do we have all the species of insects that we do have right now?  Did they all evolve between now and when the original insects left the Ark?  Or was Noah just like, "Awww fuck it, God's not gonna check and see if I got EVERY one out there."  Meanwhile Noah and his family had to be infected with every human parasite in exist for the sake of preserving the animals.

I am going to let you in on a little secret, the flood never happened.  Go read the Sumerian/Akkadian flood myth and then read the Judeo-Christian one.  And that's not even getting into the factual inconsistencies which have always plagued the flood story when comparing it to the actual fossil record.

But you seem to be a religious fundamentalist, so you're not going to listen what I have to say anyways.

And who are you to determine who is and who isn't a Christian?  You are seriously opening yourself up to a Pandora's Box of judgment proclaiming that you understand the will of God so well.  If Obama isn't a Christian based off his beliefs, you are not one based off your judgmental actions, or are at least are one who is going straight to hell.

 

I have read The Epic of Gilgamesh (Akkadian Flood Account) and it is clearly based off the same event as the Genesis flood. However, the EoG is was more skewed and obviously the story had been muddled over time by the time it was written down. (it sounds very Mythic)

As far as the Parasite argument, you do realize that there was million of rotting corpeses floating in the sea, certain organism would not have to be in the Ark to survive... such as fish...
