If Peter took it to be literally true (he describes the Flood as being God's judgment...are you saying it was just a story??...then what judgment is he talking about if it never happened???...a judgment that never happened is not a judgment lol), and he was a disciple of Jesus, why wouldn't Jesus also? Three years together, and Peter thought it was literal and Jesus didn't??? You really believe Jesus would let Peter labor under that illusion?? Wouldn't he be misleading his disciples to do that? I can just see Jesus now, "That's right, you just go and preach the Flood as God's judgment" while thinking, "oops the Flood never happened...oh well"!!!! Sorry, but that sounds pretty insane!
Well, since there is no evidence that the Flood ever happened-----
Sorry, but that sounds pretty insane
Now you`re getting the picture.
