Opinions of non-biblical evidence of the Noah Flood?

[Xon]

Here's a hint. There's no evidence presented there.

Here is the thing, early agrarian cultures needed to farm on flood planes because of the fertile nature of the planes and the primitive tools and (lack of) knowledge of crops.

No shit there are lots of flood myths, because early humans lived on fucking flood planes.

The unfortunate reality is that if you state a lie emphatically enough, a sizable proportion of the population will assume it must be true. Especially if it just so happens to fit with what they want to believe. And the Internet has a tendency to make lies viral in nature, ie- they spread. And the more websites confirm something, the more reliable people assume it is. As Steve Colbert pointed out, we live in the era of truth by democracy.

Yes, . . . . this is an unfortunate truth. Unless you are well versed in science, people (including me) can fall for such things because they sound good/scientific. One day, at church, I was talking to the pastor when a girl (in her 30's) came up and said that "we need to have Kent Hovind come to our church for a seminar. I just went to one at another church, and it was so neat, . . . . . blah blah blah.. . . "

The thing that . . . kinda worries me about people like that is that either they are truly unable to understand the scientific method, they believe that erroneous data is viable, . . . . or they are openly trying to decieve. . . . . . because, as you said, it is sometimes easy to sway the "less than educated" masses to simply believe what you say.

At least I came to those who are well verse in science to check such "evidences" rather than blindling believing.

The phrase "Trust No One!" rings true. . . . .even with those who are supposed to be "good christians".
