In reference to my thread on Flood stories, the following was posted.
This is a science forum, not a Bible Study. It is not about whether the Christian Flood story is right, wrong, or where it came from. It is looking at the commonalities of universal flood stories. Not earthquakes, not forest fires, and not power outages.
(1) I think that Faith has asked a very good question. If I had thought of it, I would, in fact, have put it in my original post. It is irrelevant to know how common flood stories are unless we also have a context in which to put this data. I should have thought of that. As the guy who started the thread, could I ask you to regard this as on topic?
(2) I should like to point out that my post on stealing fire from heaven was not posted in disregard of the moderator's comments: I was putting it together while that warning was being posted.

If Rob wishes to start a thread on Lewis's more egregious philosophical fallacies, I'll be happy to kick them to pieces.
I admire Lewis as a moralist, but he was a lousy philosopher.
