All creatures great and small.
All things wise and wonderful
The Lord God drowned them all.
(Genesis 6-9)
Except Satan and his demons. He let them carry on to wreak havoc. Strange God that Christians have...

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The flood is quite interesting insofar as, in doing what he (allegedly) did, God was admitting he wasn't omniscient - or perfect. I love these little bits that give you a logical insight into the errors that religion somehow manages to overlook. The Abraham and Isaac story - and the story of Job - offer similar. God wasn't very nice at all.
On a series note (as serious as I can be when im drunk as a skunk😂) This story ....when I was a teenage Christian...really bothered me and I never got a satisfatory explanation.
So God was so brassed of with mankind that he decided to drown it. Not only mankind (including babies and children) but animals as well. What the hell had puppies and kittens done to upset God???
So apart from a floating zoo and 8 incestuous people to repopulate the earth, he allowed the most horrific beings (Satan and demons) to continue to exist???
Its weird naomi. When you are in the grip of religon, you can rationalise anything away. Always wondered how the angel with the flaming sword guarding the garden of Eden fared when the flood came. Is he still there?
And what about the Nephilim. Wernt they destroyed in the flood? And yet they pop up again in the book of Numbers?
God regretted making mankind (so much for been all knowing) and decides to destroy it. And yet no mention of regretting making Satan/demons???
What a load of old pony!
😂😂
Think about it (the religious won't)
An elderly couple, 3 sons and 3 daughters in law.
Got to repopulate the entire earth in a couple of thousand years,
They must have been humping each other left, right and centre (sideways, backways and upside down as well) to get the population where it is today.
No wonder theres so many STD's about...
//just like the Adam and Eve story.//
Another story with more questions than answers naomi.
So God created every animal male and female. Male and female created he him!! Except for Adam? No mate for Adam. God then had to bring every animal before him but no helpmate was found. What did God think? That he might have chosen a goat or something? It was only then that God put adam to sleep and made a magical rib woman from him.
It baffles me now, 40 yrs later, that I ever believed in this rubbish!
