i believe their flood control was a 40 day limit. ...ill get back to you on that.

my take:

personally? im not too sure on religion. id love to believe in it. i've just had trouble, specifically recently.

i can be pretty argumentative. i enjoy debates. and, i guess, im just looking for more of a "proof" sorta thing when it comes to religion. i have so many questions about it, and no one can really gimme an answer. its frustrating, cuz, id honestly LIKE to know the questions -- im not looking to make people who believe look foolish cuz they dont know the answers... thats not any part of me. rather, i'd like to strive for the answers to help better myself and perhaps find a stronger committment to religion. unfortunately, i've yet to find that.

however, were i given some magical final answer, proving once and for all that god was man's creation... would i share it? certainly not.

there are a few things in this world that are just bigger than us.

for starters, i'd have billions (literally) of people on my ass, ridiculing me, some making assassination attempts, etc, etc. id be worse than hitler, as far as the world was concerned. so, for self-preservation reasons, i DEFINITELY would not share my findings.

however, even if looked at in a more "beneficial" light -- as if to say my sharing this information may benefit people... i still dont think id tell people.

remember your first christmas (not you, roy), when you found out about santa? that shit sucked!! it was like "oooh... presents... and clothes, i guess..." but, just 1 year prior, it was THE most important day in the history of your life. the only difference was whether or not you had that faith.

no way would i wanna ruin that feeling for anyone, let alone everyone.
