Ain\'t nature wonderful (Introduction)
Anyone who tries to argue in favour of the story of Noah's Fludde being a reality is not a skeptic but a propagandist for creationism. I hesitate to correspond with people who hide behind pen-names, but it seems to me that "Balance_Maintained" is just a "troll" who argues for the sake of stirring up argument where none is needed. Anyone who says of the truth: "In my experience, it is some where in the middle in just about any argument" is just a sophist not worthy of being taken seriously.-George, my name is Tony Vaught, or if you prefer my full name Richard Anthony Vaught, I have no reason to hide it other than the fact that it is just generally a good idea not to put too much out there when you are online. .. As for arguing in favor of Noah's flood, I kind of had that thrust at me (can't remember if it was this thread or another). Frankly speaking, what I mean by "it is some where in the middle in just about any argument" is that we often discount things because we don't want them to be true. They don't fit within our world view for whatever reason. Whether you like it or not, there are civilizations all over the globe that write about a major flood. The name Noah, or the local variant also pops up throughout various cultures. This has been discussed in many books, but the one that pops to my head straight away is 'The Secret Teachings of All Ages' by Manly P. Hall 1928, who does an in depth encyclopedic style discussion on certain strange historical figures that crop up around the globe with the same or similar name and general description, as well as some discussion on ancient mythology, Pythagoras, different esoteric sects and so on. Secondly, as I start seeing things crop up in geology that lend some support, of course I am going to re-examine the myth and argue my way through it. If you can't argue both sides of the coin, then you don't understand the issue to begin with. So, no, I am not a troll, but if it helps you in some way to think of me in that light then by all means, feel free.
