wolfbiblemoonLots of begatting and an out of proportion flood from an ever vengeful God:
* Adam and Eve had two sons, Cain and Abel. Cain killed Abel and was cursed by God but lived on to have his own family, with a mysterious wife who came from where? And then lots of sons were born and had children with other women that appear from nowhere, hmm...
* Biblical people had ridiculously long life-spans, I'm talking 700-950 years or so, even those cursed to die (like Adam who ate from the tree of knowledge)
* God brings the flood because the Nephalim were causing the humans to be immoral and he regretted making humans, so he killed every living thing that wasn't in the 600 year old Noah's ark. Seems like a bit of an over reaction...
