I take serious issue with this comparison. Jim, most Christian religions use the story of the great flood as a parable to teach, not as a historical fact or as a matter of canon. Yes, the fundies will believe in the ark as an historical fact, but you didn't specify that. You were indicting the entire religion on this belief. That's not right. -- If there's one thing in my life that's missing It's the time that I spend alone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:251280 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
