This is not true, there's not any scientific evidence to support a global flood. In fact, there's scientific evidence in opposition of the Bible event.

The mountains used to be underwater, the Rockies were once a seabed south of the equator. That's why there are fossils. Image
There's no fossil record indicating any great migration of species to the Middle East. Many Australian species have never left Australia, they evolved and stayed there. There's no water marks on Great Pyramids indicative of a flood event. The Noah Flood story is a myth. 100%.
I could do this with a good number of species, but my favorite example to disprove this myth is the Koala. The oldest known koala fossil is approximately 20 million years old and belongs to the extinct genus Nimiokoala. That predates the flood...
So for the Koala to exist, it would have to leave Australia and travel to the Middle East, likely the Sinai Peninsula. Here's where the fun math kicks in. A koala has to sleep about 20 hours per day, and only moves at a meager 0.2 mph. This is an 8,000 mile trip. See it yet?
They live about 12 years. So assuming the oceans dried up so they could walk (that's the only way they're getting to Egypt), it would take about 30 years if they put 100% of their energy to this goal. So we're talking 4 to 5 generations of Koalas here to make a 30 year trip.
And since other animals eat and hunt, many koalas would had to have left Australia in order for two to make the boat. And then, there's the whole trip back. They would have had to repopulate into the thousands to make it back and of course the oceans would have to dry up again.
All of this would leave fossil records all over Middle East and other parts of the world. But there are none. And of course, if the oceans had dried up, that kills off marine life and that certainly didn't happen. So forget polar bears and penguins, et al., koalas prove its myth!

Before I start this long day, I think I want to respond to this "Trump - Purple Heart" BS. I want to wait a bit before saying something because I was so livid that whatever I would have wrote would probably put a black sedan in my driveway. But, I have a few words.
I have a Purple Heart, in fact a few. My brother lost half his face in Iraq. I'm at a guy's house now who had a round pierce his lung. None of us want these medals, but there's more to it than having just been injured. There's showing up. We volunteered for combat.
Combat is not the same as running for office and getting shot at. Combat is understanding you're going to be shot at and going anyway. Something Donald Trump didn't do. And somebody else had to go in his place. Donald Trump is a coward. I've earned my place to call him that.

I'll start a new thread, hopefully a short one, but it's more of a rant. I'm a hay producer. We hire seasonally, and prefer to hire local teens on their summer break. We can get them outside, teach them about work, and even mentor. But for past 6 yrs, we've hired more migrants.
The mentality has changed. Kids used to show up excited to work and earn money. Many were even competitive and tried to outwork each other. We'd invite moms and dads at the end of the season to the ranch for a big cook out to celebrate. But that happens less now.
Whatever changed, we'd hire some kids and many would leave us hanging by not showing up, or showing up at 1 pm and acted like we should be blessed by their presence. I've got more important things to deal with. What's important to me is getting hay cut, baled and stacked!

How many of you have ever been inside a major steel foundry? These places build America, they make the wheels needed for our tractors used to grow our food and more. The plants are hot, and the air quality is often dangerous. Shifts are often 12 hours and many are in small towns. Image
It's not fun work. It's hard, back breaking work and plants are having a hard time finding labor to meet production demands. When they can't find workers, should they just close and we import cast iron from China? Or, is it better to bring in immigrants? We should be thankful. Image
Such foundries make anything cast iron from saw tops to bomb casings, but I use ag as an example because I'm familiar with it. This photo is the CASE IH factory in Grand Island, NE. Another small town having difficulty finding workers. But see that wheel? It's made in Pryor, OK. Image

So, something isn't right with what we are hearing in the news re: polls. First, I'm in Florida. A ship owner with a problem child needs it to pass an inspection, and this is one of the areas I specialize in so I flew into Fort Myers yesterday. My 1st Mate had to fly to Orlando.
I have a friend in Punta Gorda and needed to pick up some equipment, which is why I flew into Fort Myers. Then I drove all the way to Orlando to pick up my 1st at the airport there. I traveled the highways, not the interstate. I was curious how many Trump signs I would see.
I went up Highway 17 to Winter Haven, over to Haines City and then up into Orlando area and over to airport. That route goes through (I think) five deeply red counties that have had permanent Trump signs proudly displayed since 2016. They went up and never really came down.

I don't know who needs to know this, but there's still some who failed middle school science, so let's talk about what vaccines do and don't do.

Vaccines do not put up a shield around your body that prevents a virus from entering your body. Once virus is in, you're infected!
What a vaccine does is give your body's immune system the "advanced knowledge" of how to attack a virus. It's very similar to programming. The virus doesn't have to waste time trying different things and failing, some of those things can lead to even worse situations.
But your body doesn't know this, it's just trying to learn. Unfortunately, it can basically self-destruct in the process of trying to learn. This is why vaccines are so important. It allows your body to skip all this trial and error and go straight to what does work.

When I was growing up, my mother had a friend who had an abortion. This what changed my parent's views on abortion and even tho I haven't seen this lady in 30 years or know if she's still alive, I thought I'd tell you about it because it busts the myth Republican men are pushing.
My mother's friend was married to a lineman in Oklahoma. They had two boys, at the time 8 and 13. They wanted a girl and were having trouble getting pregnant, so they went to a clinic to try IVF. The day that he "donated", he ended up getting killed (electrocuted) at work.
That of course put everything on hold for a while, but she ultimately decided to carry on with the plans they had made together and carry his child and she got pregnant via IVF. Three months later, a problem developed. The fetus wasn't healthy.
