@Judahxulu What Are You Talking About No Internets & Airplanes Back Then, What Made You Say that Goofy Shit?

Far as Explaining The Floods Scientifically, Why I Thought I Address This Flood stories are quite common in ancient mythologies around the world. Each of these myths arise in areas where independent local floods occurred. You Explain Why They are Similar to The Bible & Some of Them Pre Date the Bible! Let's Deal with the One You Seem to Believe & Work From There! Don't Think it Skipped me That You're Ignoring My Questions.

You Sound Angry...Would You Like To Call me More Names Pussy! Just to Help You out about the Flood, Since You Seem so Frustrated Flood stories are quite common in ancient mythologies around the world. Each of these myths arise in areas where independent local floods occurred. A world wide flood as described in Genesis never happened but like all myths it contains a small bit of truth. The flood that inspired the Babylonian story which later inspired the Bible's story was actually just a localized flood. Several ancient floods could have been the inspiration, such as rise of sea level after the ice age, but the flooding of the Nile is most likely the origin for the Mesopotamian area. Every year the Nile would flood causing destruction. The water would strip away the land but when the water receded a layer of black mud was left making it the only soil in Egypt fertile enough to plant crops, thus allowing life to begin again. Ancients referred to it as the "Gift of the Nile."

Never Meeting Norse People Has Nothing to do With Them Knowing The Stories or Hearing a Variation of the Same Story or How do You Explain The Similarities of the 20 Stories Before Jesus.....Please Read a Book

And Thanks for Giving me The Most Asshole Answer... You Only Get Mad , or Sad when Something is Revealed to You (Like You seem to be) Your God Being All Knowing & All Seeing, Wouldn't Experience the same Feeling as You, Cause Nothing would Could be Revealed to Him.....Common Sense Dickhead!

Very true, localized floods. But they were floods of big proportions, just not "world wide", but to the people it would seem like it was a world wide flood.

i accept ALL of them. u cant box me into your damn concept. the similarities are not just that there was a flood and its plain as day in the text i.e. animals, a patriarch with sons and wives, evil on the earth being the cause etc.

@Judahuxulu The Story of Jesus

Horus

"the Way, the Truth, the Life"

Of all the savior-gods worshiped Horus may have contributed more to the story of Christ than any other figure. Inscribed about 3,500 years ago [1500 years before Jesus' alleged advent] on the walls of the Temple at Luxor were images of the Annunciation, Immaculate Conception, and Adoration of Horus. It tells of Thoth announcing to the virgin Isis that she will conceive Horus; with Kneph the "Holy Ghost" impregnating the virgin; and with the birth being attended by three kings, or magi, bearing gifts. Countless parallels can be found when comparing stories of Horus to the stories of Jesus.

in the catacombs at Rome are pictures of the baby Horus being held by the virgin mother Isis - the original "Madonna and Child."

You Also Don't Seem to Know who Odin is..Other Than the Father of Favorite Comic Book Character Odin is a Norse god, the father of Balder, and Wednesday is named after him (Wodan). He was apparently hung on a tree and pierced with a spear, as Jesus was.

Peep The Similarities Between Buddah & Jesus Both went to their temples at the age of twelve, where they are said to have astonished all with their wisdom. Both supposedly fasted in solitude for a long time: Buddha for forty–seven days and Jesus for forty. Both wandered to a fig tree at the conclusion of their fasts. Both were about the same age when they began their public ministry:

“When he [Buddha] went again to the garden he saw a monk who was calm, tranquil, self–possessed, serene, and dignified. The prince, determined to become such a monk, was led to make the great renunciation. At the time he was twenty–nine years of age… “Jesus, when he began his ministry, was about thirty years of age.” (Luke 3:23). Both were tempted by the “devil” at the beginning of their ministry: To Buddha, he said: “Go not forth to adopt a religious life but return to your kingdom, and in seven days you shall become emperor of the world, riding over the four continents.” To Jesus, he said: “All these [kingdoms of the world] I will give you, if you fall down and worship me” (Matthew 4:9). Buddha answered the “devil”: “Get you away from me.”

Jesus responded: “…begone, Satan!” (Matthew 4:10). Both strove to establish a kingdom of heaven on earth. According to the Somadeva (a Buddhist holy book), a Buddhist ascetic’s eye once offended him, so he plucked it out and cast it away. Jesus said: “If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out, and throw it away;.” (Matthew 5:29).

You Have Krishna According to Bhagavata Purana some believe that Krishna was born without a sexual union, by “mental transmission” from the mind of Vasudeva into the womb of Devaki, his mother. Christ and Krishna were called both God and the Son of God. Both were sent from heaven to earth in the form of a man. Both were called Savior, and the second person of the Trinity. Krishna’s adoptive human father was also a carpenter. A spirit or ghost was their actual father. Krishna and Jesus were of royal descent. Both were visited at birth by wise men and shepherds, guided by a star. Angels in both cases issued a warning that the local dictator planned to kill the baby and had issued a decree for his assassination. The parents fled. Mary and Joseph stayed in Muturea; Krishna’s parents stayed in Mathura. Both Christ and Krishna withdrew to the wilderness as adults, and fasted. Both were identified as “the seed of the woman bruising the serpent’s head.” Jesus was called “the lion of the tribe of Judah.” Krishna was called “the lion of the tribe of Saki.” Both claimed: “I am the Resurrection.” Both were “without sin.” Both were god-men: being considered both human and divine. Both performed many miracles, including the healing of disease. One of the first miracles that both performed was to make a leper whole. Each cured “all manner of diseases.” Both cast out indwelling demons, and raised the dead. Both selected disciples to spread his teachings. Both were meek, and merciful. Both were criticized for associating with sinners. Both celebrated a last supper. Both forgave his enemies. Both were crucified and both were resurrected.

There's about 9 More, But Somehow The Story of Jesus is The Real one & I'm The Arrogant One

these stories all arose independent of one another is the point. u only have proof of similarities NOT DERIVATION!

You Are a Fool To Accept Anything You Have No Proof or Evidence of & I Wouldn't Waste my Time Trying To Disprove Each Flood Story to You, They Could Very well Be True or Have some Truth to It, But The Similarities Being what They are. You Should of Figured it Out You're Convinced of Some Bullshit & Calling Yourself Intelligent

Proof of Similarities Makes the Point That it's Highly Unlikely it is True! In Fact Some Are Stories That WE KNOW AREN'T True...

Dionysus was born of a virgin on December 25 and, as the Holy Child, was placed in a manger. He was a traveling teacher who performed miracles. He “rode in a triumphal procession on an ass.” He was a sacred king killed and eaten in an eucharistic ritual for fecundity and purification. Dionysus rose from the dead on March 25. He was the God of the Vine, and turned water into wine. He was called “King of Kings” and “God of Gods.” He was considered the “Only Begotten Son,” Savior,” “Redeemer,” “Sin Bearer,” Anointed One,” and the “Alpha and Omega.” He was identified with the Ram or Lamb. His sacrificial title of “Dendrites” or “Young Man of the Tree” intimates he was hung on a tree or crucified.

No one can Have 100% Truth, The Same Reason You Can Disprove or Prove with a 100% there is a God! You can Only go with the Most Likely After Carefully Looking at The Solid Evidence

You say no one can have 100% truth, and yet in defense of the non-existence of God, you have an "absoluteness" about your claim. Sure, you can say the same for the religious, but you can't have it both ways. I would like to think that if someone wants to know that God exists, they would want to know absolutely and not just most likely...not even 99.99%.

People are going to be right and people are going to be wrong...and people are not going to know. However, the existence of God is not depended on our understanding.

Do people have some outlandish perceptions on God? Yes. Do people do bad things in the name of God? Sure. Are there many books out there that claim to be from God? Yeah. But if you want the truth about all these things, you need to do more than just running tests.

Well, I would suggest you do the same and re-examine. As important as those questions that you asked are, those are not the questions I would concern myself with. The introduction of science has helped us with that for the most part. My question are more on who are we, what are we suppose to do with our lives, what is right and wrong, why we do more wrong than right, what can be done about it. So far, science has come up short in dealing with those questions as much as it has advanced. There are people still searching for an identity, don't know what to do with themselves, living their lives with no regard for what is right and wrong and compromising how others their lives. And as governments of the world no longer have the authority or respect that it once had, it makes it that much harder to appreciate life for we don't have anybody looking out for us..or anybody we can trust to look out for us. It's just us. You might as well die these days...or eat, drink and be marry doing it. I believe God has answered those questions through the Bible and that's why I believe He exist.

You Still Have Yet to Give me a Good Reason Why You Think a God Exist?

He doesn't have one.

Does it matter that I have one? That comment suggests to me that you don't quite know how to desensitize yourself from the matters of the world yet from what your beliefs are about life. This "God" business really gets you fired up especially when you have a companion who you think feels the same way. Don't get too attached to avatars in this place. Computers can't replace interaction with people...something I may need to consider myself.

I Do Constantly Re Examine . Why are They Not questions You;d Concern Yourself With? Do You Not Care if What you Believe is True? What you Pose to do with Your Life is Your Own Choice that's The Beauty. The dangers of Letting the Bible or Any Religious Text make the Choice is Too Numerous to Name & Far as Right & Wrong (Morality) That's Subjective. One: There’s an increasing body of evidence supporting the theory that human morality is, to a great extent, genetically hard-wired. (No, this isn’t a tangent — stay with me.) There is, of course, tremendous variation in how that morality plays out in specific ethical systems, from person to person and from culture to culture. But there are certain core moral concepts that seem to exist cross-culturally, and which seem to be part of the human brain’s hard-wiring — a wiring that’s evolved over millions of years, just like the rest of our neurological hard-wiring has evolved. (And before you ask: Yes, there is so an evolutionary advantage to morality — or there is in a social species, anyway.) Even If Science Can't Answer your questions Yet. It's No Reason to Install a God on How You Make Decisions, Especially when it can & Has Influenced so Many Bad Decisions. I'm not Gonna Get into all The Judgmental Christian Type shit with You on People Searching for Identity or not Knowing What to Do With Themselves, Cause it's Not True & It's a Blanket Statement that Your Religion makes you Think is True. I Suggest you Re Examine Life Godlessness is not something that one should be afraid of embracing. All the beauty in the world, all of the moral people, and all that brings you joy in life exists despite the lack of gods. This awe inspiring universe is exactly the type of universe one would expect to see if there were no gods.
