[Music] so okay chapter four is kane and abel
but i have to tell you something i know this story but even before that i have to tell you something okay
so remember when i told you that translations matter and you were like whatever
yeah so um we are actually reaching the part where translation matters because
we're gonna get to the begats i be get the that's dumb
that is not proper use of the word beget but i will allow it how soon is the begetting it's actually in chapter five
so we're not quite there yet but i just wanted to be up front and prepare you because you were like that's boring well
yeah the gap begat the gap again yes but again here's where translation matters
this particular translation the nlt does not say begat
so i just thought i'd put that out there okay because i didn't know until i
slightly read ahead a little bit and i was like wait a minute all these people having all these sons and whatnot and i
don't see the word begat yet i thought the begetting was in leviticus yeah so did i this is why we're reading the
bible okay okay ready yeah sure okay chapter four cain and abel
now adam had sexual relations with oh [ __ ] found bow wow
they did the dirty with his wife eve does it actually say sexual relations this translation does
say now adam had sexual relations with his wife eve interesting and she became
preggers does not say prager's it doesn't it says pregnant okay but i like preggers better right or pregnoid
pragtoine yeah eve became pregnoid when she gave birth to cain she said with the
lord's help i have produced a man because you know she couldn't have done it by herself right did the lord
actually help i mean according to eve but it seems like a third wheel in the room or something or
it seems like adam did the heavy lifting i mean you would think yeah i don't know right well kind of nasty i mean no
judgment some people like that i guess god did create them so that's helping i
i don't know couldn't have had kids without making themselves okay
later she gave birth to his brother and named him abel how much later it didn't say just later later just later laters
when they grew up abel became a shepherd that was quick while kane cultivated the ground
he got the the boring jo wait no they're both boring right but i mean god was like you know you will work hard to toil
from the earth and blah blah blah but the other guy got to be the shepherd so that's true so one is toiling while the other's
doing life sounds like bs like one of them is a favorite kid so no wonder cain rose up right
when it was time for the harvest cain presented some of his crops as a gift to the lord abel also brought a gift see i told you
god was a vegan he wants his salads the best portion of the firstborn lambs
from his flock the lord accepted abel and his gift but he did not accept cain
and his gift i don't know why this made cain very angry and he looked
dejected i would be dejected too right he didn't accept just yet like dude i'm giving you
something you won't even take it maybe it was rotted like maybe he's like here's some [ __ ] potatoes i guess
look i'm just gonna tell you if somebody came up to me and was like here have some potatoes and cucumbers from my
garden i'd be like oh thanks right even if they were shriveled and nasty
to me it's the thought that counts and i'll be like they had extra and that was so nice yeah it's always been my theory
just based on the things that i have heard that god is kind of an [ __ ] i mean it seems that way let's read on
okay why are you so angry the lord asked cain why do you look so dejected you will be
accepted if you do what is right but if you refuse to do what is right then watch out watch out
vague much vague sin is crouching at the door eager to control you but you must
subdue it and be its master this sounds like um victim blaming so basically god
punched him in the feelings and then was like why are you crying bruh right yeah one day kane suggested to his
brother let's go out into the fields and while they were in the field kane attacked his
brother abel and killed him that was that escalated quickly yeah like what
yeah there was that was just just just walked out of no field and killed him huh and also misplaced anger like
according to what i'm reading it's not abel's fault that god's a dick right so his mom bit into the fruit of knowledge
and then he just walks out into the field and kills his brother yeah okay all right
this story is so convoluted i mean like where's the like there's no there's no story arc
here no no it's just and then that happened right and then that happened yeah there's no cause and effect really
right after the lord asked cain where is your brother where is abel
because again he can't keep track of the four human beings that are on his planet i think he knew otherwise why would he
ask but but why why should he ask why doesn't he just say it why like he doesn't tell
people what the sins are he doesn't tell people you know that they're actually not gonna die if they eat the fruit but
it's gonna cause a problem and that they're going to get like he doesn't tell people anything you have to figure it out and then if you don't figure it
out the way he wants you to he's like [ __ ] you i'm going to punish you because you're you're dumb and you didn't do
things the way i wanted you to do it i mean that tracks yeah
kane responded did he say uh he said i don't know but i like uh paraphrasing here yeah yeah
definitely i don't know kane responded am i my brother's guardian oh smart ass but the
lord said what have you done we've been here before
listen your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground see i told you he already knew yeah now you are cursed and
banished from the ground which has swallowed your brother's blood no longer will the ground yield good crops for you
no matter how hard you work from now on you will be a homeless wanderer on the earth hmm that seems i
don't know a bit extreme it does like there's no um
what's that thing called rehabilitation right yeah like just no [ __ ] you you're done these are
your first four humans and and one of them [ __ ] up because you didn't give clear instructions and
you're like you're done bro you're done yeah this leader sucks right
kane replied report kane replied to the lord my punishment is too great for me
to bear you have banished me from the land and from your presence you have made me a homeless wanderer anyone who
finds me will kill me anyone who are these anyone's anyone i didn't know
there were other peeps right that's they're the first two people other than their parents on earth
far as i knew this is very confusing it is very confusing the lord replied no
for i will give a seven-fold punishment to anyone who kills you then the lord put a mark on cain to warn
anyone who might try to kill him so i wonder if cain is still alive today so the mark is to warn people to not
kill him yeah i wonder if it like is clear instructions don't kill this boy
right yeah i mean we are watching the show lucifer and the mark of kane and there's keynes
keynes in there he's still alive yeah so yeah this is very interesting stuff right
so cain left the lord's presence and settled in the land of nod east of eden
cain had sexual relations with his wife wait his wife who the hell was his wife
and she became pregnant and gave gave birth to enoch but where where did his wife come from i
don't know this is so confusing maybe it was just like three seconds ago they were born and now
he's banished and having sex with his wife and having a kid named enoch hear me out so you know how in the bible mans
are like all the [ __ ] and woman's are just nothing right so maybe eve had a bunch of daughters that were not
mentioned and so maybe kane took a sister with him and married her ass
right but that's a stretch they don't you know they're not telling us this look there's no other people i can only
assume that eve had more children than what is mentioned in the record for all we know
there's other gods on the planet at this point and they created other people and he went and when he got banished he was
like oh look there's other people i'm gonna take this one as my wife cause i got banished from my god i'm gonna go
over this god i don't know how i feel about that considering i don't believe in any of the gods well i'm just saying like you
know it's as believable as this god you know what i'm saying there's all these other religions why couldn't it just be
another god like they don't they don't tell us so maybe maybe the bible's telling us that these
other religions are legit they just don't want to tell us they're legit okay um just a theory i am going
to go with my theory that he married his sister i mean that's probably more reasonable because i mean it's hard
enough to believe in one god much less money sick and also it means that there was a lot of incest when we were in our
early years it means that we're all in bread [ __ ] basically yeah yeah
okay so um kane had sexual relations with his mystery wife and she became pregnored
and gave birth to enoch then cain founded a city jesus christ
we're taking leaps and bounds here where did all these people come from which he named oh then kane founded a
city which he named enoch after his son enoch had a son named irad or erod now
we're in the next generation already yeah man okay here we go this is where we're getting into the gats iran became
the father of jail men who jail became the father of methuselah methuselah became the father
of lamech lamech married two women two women holy [ __ ] man the first was named
ada and the second was zilla a dog gave birth to j ball jabal who was the first
of those who raised livestock and live in tents i know he was not the first to raise his
livestock because abel that's right he was saying that right like that was the whole point he was the first to raise
livestock and live in tents oh okay
i guess i don't know this whole thing's a mess yeah his brother's name was jubal the
first of all who play the harp and flute hmm that's interesting that means that
they've invented harps and flutes now yeah we have progressed quite a ways right
lamech's other wife zilla gave birth to a son named tubal kane
he became an expert in forging tools of bronze and iron you know being that
these are some of the first human beings on the planet you would think there'd be a lot more like storyline here i would think i
would think too i am especially since they're inventing all this crap like they invented harps and all this i mean
they invented a lot of things there is no um character um creation here i i don't like this
book i don't either they're just like they're skipping they're skipping yeah they're like uh and then lots
a lot of people had sex yeah and then now we're here too much exposition right
tubal kane had a sister named nema one day lamech said to his wives ada and
zilla hear my voice listen to me you wives of laymak i have killed a man who
attacked me a young man who wounded me if someone who kills cain is punished seven times then the one who kills me
will be punished 77 times right what he just decided that of his own
agreement right that wasn't even god saying it he's just like my great great grandpa still walking the
earth isn't allowed to die and therefore therefore i'm not allowed to die either
yeah right and he's like bragging about it to his wives and they're probably like okay 77 times huh yeah i don't know
okay okay we're going back to adam now okay adam had sexual relations with his wife again
but wait we're like how many generations in now this has got to be like hundreds of years ago yeah yeah he lived a really
long time i don't know if you're aware okay okay hundreds of years got it
and she gave birth to another son she named him seth for she said god has granted me another son in place of abel
whom cain killed because that's how that works you lose a son and you just replace him with a new rainbow baby
hundreds of years later yeah hundreds of years later right when seth grew up he had a sauna named him enosh at that time
people first began to worship the lord by name and by people again i don't know
where all these folks came from well apparently they i they just materialize somewhere i'm not really
sure like a teleporter because like it was there was a city within the second generation what if they're like aliens
like what if um and according to the bible the only
the only offspring that adam and eve had were two men and then a third and then a third man
right so so what yeah i i don't get this at all
yeah okay chapter five the descendants of adam this is the written account of
the descendants of adam when god created human beings did you start on chapter five
no that was chapter four now i'm on chapter five right we're supposed to pause oh
i forgot nothing we'll be right back
[Music]
okay so can i start chapter five now go for it okay sorry i'm not very professional
chapter five the descendants of adam this is the written account of the descendants of adam when god created
human beings he made them to be like himself he created them male and female and he blessed them and called them human when adam was 130 years old
he became the father of a son who was just like him in his very image he named his son seth
after the birth of seth adam lived another 800 years oh my god and he had
other sons and daughters wow i don't know just others like we're not going to cover that other people they're just
others the others yeah adam lived 930 years and then he died
i wonder how good his brain was that's been good medical care back then
better than what we've got today clearly god lasik [Laughter]
okay so i think we're getting into the real begats now okay so i'm gonna just try to flash
through these as quickly as possible okay okay i'm gonna time you oh my god
ready i'm ready when seth was 105 years old he became the father of enosh after the birth of
enoch seth lived another 807 years and he had other sons and daughters
seth lived 912 years and then he died when enosh was 90 years old he became the father of kenan after the birth of
keenan enosh lived another 815 years and he had other sons and daughters enosh lived 905 years and then he died when
king was 70 years old he became the father of mahela after the birth of
kanan lived another 840 years and he had other sons and daughters keenan lived nine hundred ten years and then he died
when muhallallahu was 65 years old he became the father of jared after the birth of jared mahele
lived another 830 years and he had other sons and daughters when mahila lived 895 years and then he died when
jared was 162 years old he became the father of enoch after the birth of enoch jared lived another 800 years he had
other sons and daughters jared lived 962 years and then he died when enoch was 65
years old he became the father of methuselah after the birth of methuselah enoch lived in close fellowship with god
for another 300 years and he had other sons and daughters enoch lived 365 years
walking in close fellowship with god then one day he disappeared because god took him
when methuselah was 187 years old he became the father of lamech after the birth of lamech methuselah lived another
782 years and he had other sons and daughters methuselah lived 969 years and
then he died when lee mek was 182 years old he became the father of a son laymak named his son noah oh i know that name
for he said may he bring us relief from our work and the painful labor of farming this ground that the lord has
caused after the birth of noah lamech lived another 959 i'm sorry 595 years
and he had other sons and daughters lamech lived 777 years and then he died after noah was 500 years old he became
the father of shem ham and japheth holy cow that's the end of chapter five that
is a lot of exact dates and how long they lived exactly right and they lived
a really long time and not a lot of character development which is why i just tried to flash through it as well
like zero character development right that was what is what even happened why
the [ __ ] did i just read okay you think they'll make it clear probably not [ __ ] but at least we've
reached noah okay i want noah i mean at least we know that story yeah kind of i mean you know most people do i do i mean
kinda i think i know it i don't know [ __ ] flooded right i mean i think there was a flood and then he built an ark and two animals
but not the unicorns [ __ ] unicorns okay all right
[Music]
okay so chapter six the wickedness of mankind i'm glad we got through all those uh
right chapter six the wickedness of mankind then the people began to multiply on the
earth and daughters were born to them it's like they're just like one two three go
here is a lot of freaking people yeah that's basically the way it goes like that's like the whole point of the last
like couple of chapters yeah they [ __ ] like bunnies yeah
the sons of god saw the beautiful women and took any they wanted as their wives
took took took they took them as their wives okay any they wanted but only the beautiful ones
yeah [ __ ] ugly ones just got you know who knows and they got tossed to the
curb yeah right then the lord said my spirit will not put up with humans for such a long time
for they are only mortal flesh in the future their normal lifespan will be no more than 120 years so he's like he
created us in his own image and then he got tired of us so he's like you're gonna die quicker now yeah i just don't
i don't like you guys anymore yeah okay yeah basically again it kind of holds
true to my theory that he's an [ __ ] yeah because like that's definitely not how i feel about my kids right yeah
in those days and for some time after giant nephilites nephilites
lived on the earth for whenever the sons of god had intercourse with women they gave birth to children who became the
heroes and famous warriors of ancient times the lord observed the extent of human
wickedness on the earth and he saw that everything they thought or imagined was consistently and totally evil
hmm okay i don't get it but why why was it
like they had sex with women what were they imagining and conceiving of that was evil
i don't i think that they had sex okay i don't know i mean there was warriors too so i guess maybe they were
killing each other i don't know what a giant nephilites i don't know
i'll look that one up and get back to you next time i mean i'm imagining like some giant flying bug that's just what
it sounds like to me but i mean i know that it's like a beetle that can
knock over houses that's what i'm saying beetle that can knock over the flies yeah well nephilim are a type of angel i
think oh like nephilim and seraphim i don't know but what is a nephilite
it sounds kind of like nephilipicus
so the lord was sorry he had he ever made them and put them on the earth it broke his heart oh my god what a
i'm sorry i even made you you pieces of [ __ ] right right wow
and the lord said i will wipe this human race i have created from the face of the earth hold on hold on he is he is like
all-knowing and powerful and he can't control his [ __ ] humans and he made them in his image and he made them in
this image yeah like what the hell this guy's not i mean he he is the worst manager
in the face of the planet he is the worst manager on the face of the
planet yeah yeah yeah okay so he's gonna wipe them out yes i
will destroy every living thing all the people the large animals the small animals that scurry along the ground and
even the birds of the sky i am sorry i ever made them that is a temper tantrum right
that is like when you're playing a game of chess and you're losing and so you pick up the board and you throw it again
i i wonder why do we worship this thing i don't i mean i don't either but like he sounds
like really childish he sounds petulant yeah yeah but noah found favor with the lord
[Music] noah makes the ark this is the account of noah and his family this is the only
reason i know what a cubit is a cubit yeah is it a measurement yeah it's a measurement it's it's from the
tip of your um middle finger to your elbow oh there's a cupid yeah
so your cupid is bigger than my cupid
this is the account of noah and his family noah was a righteous man the only blameless person living on earth at the
time and he walked in close fellowship with god noah was the father of three sons as
we've already covered shem ham and japheth right now god saw that the earth had become
corrupt and was filled with violence oh you were right warriors fighting all the time yeah you called that
god observed all this corruption in the world for everyone on earth was corrupt maybe
don't you kind of wish that god would see all the corruption in our government and wipe them the [ __ ] out well the way
he acts he just wipe out the planet and pick one person to not kill because that's true he's you
know childish yeah okay he doesn't have time for us
yeah he's real busy with all of his projects we can't complain to hr we're just [ __ ]
so god said to noah i have decided to destroy all living creatures for they have filled the earth with violence yes
i will wipe them all out along with the earth build a large boat from cypress
wood and waterproof it with tar inside and out then construct decks and stalls
throughout its interior oh this is where we get the measurements make the boat 450 feet long 75 feet wide
and 45 feet high leave an 18-inch opening below the roof all the way around the boat see that must be where
they rewarded it too because it used to be that was cuba's cubits but they translated it to feet right got it
put the door on the side and build three decks inside the boat lower middle and
upper look i'm about to cover the earth with a flood that will destroy every living
thing that breathes everything on earth will die but i will confirm my covenant with you so enter the boat you and your
wife and your sons and their wives i wonder if they were allowed to bring their kiddos
did they have he doesn't say if they had kiddos i imagine that they did if they were [ __ ] like they say they're [ __ ] well but he was
in good with god and all that [ __ ] so maybe like i don't know would you get on a boat if you couldn't
bring your kids and grandkids no like let's say that it's noah's
um sons but and their wives but not your son's wives and their kids
right yeah that's i and that doesn't sound right that would be your grandkids right i wouldn't be okay with god at
that point no i would be like no my grandkids are getting on this [ __ ] boat but noah was the only one that was in like
cahoots with god yeah but he's still letting him bring his wife and his kids and their wives
and so technically isn't he setting them up self up for more failure
sounds like i mean i'm just saying sounds like because he started off this whole thing with just a couple people in the
beginning too yeah like and that's what makes them think this is gonna work better well clearly it doesn't because we're
alive today to see the messy left behind bring a pair of every kind of animal a
male and a female into the boat with you to keep them alive during the flood pairs of every kind of bird and every
kind of animal and every kind of small animal that scurries along the ground will come to you to be kept alive and be
sure to take on board enough food for your family and for all the animals so noah did everything exactly as god had
commanded him now i have a question like remember when we were reading
earlier on that adam named all the animals and you were like that can't possibly be true because he'd still be
naming them today right well now he's saying and
get all those animals on that boat so my theory is or my question is
there must have been were there fewer animals back then i mean
you got birds and serpents and sheep and livestock fish and birds but then that
would basically prove evolution how because there's more today than there
was then did god just continue creating new bugs no because [ __ ] him for mosquitoes i
mean yeah definitely that's nice that's not cool they serve no purpose in my world
yeah yeah i don't know that's the end of chapter six oh next comes the flood
all right [Music]
okay so chapter seven all right chapter blood [Music] when everything was ready the lord said
to noah go into the boat with all your family for among all the people on earth i can see that you alone are righteous
you alone you are not his family but him yeah even your wife is a piece of [ __ ] but i'll like bring her yeah and your
kids totally suck but i'll let you bring them right and their wives their wives are right out i mean they're women but
they're still good to come yeah but everybody else they just die they just die okay [ __ ] those guys yeah
take with you seven pairs male and female of each animal i have approved for eating and for sacrifice
and take one wait wait we were sacrificing [ __ ] to god back then apparently we were
holy [ __ ] i didn't know we did sacrifices yeah apparently we did christianity it sounds really paganish
yeah it really does okay and what i want to know is how does killing an animal and being like oh my
god with all this blood you so great wait i don't i don't really get all that like
i don't get and he wonders why they became more like right they're sacrificing animals to him yeah and
wondering why they're you know blood thirsty people yeah like you make
them kill animals and they pray at you and worship you that's it's
crazy that's childish it's so i just keep coming back to that right it's so childish and petulant yeah
okay so um i have a proof for eating and for sacrifice and take one pair of each of the others also take seven pairs of
every kind of bird seven seven pairs why um to eat and to worship i guess and to
feed the other animals okay there must be a male and a female in each pair to
ensure that all life will survive on the earth after the flood after all we know that just a man and a woman of each one
that will somehow create an entire population right we saw that happen once
yeah yeah and there won't be any inbreeding whatsoever and none of those that are on the ship died of sickness apparently i
don't know we're not there yet maybe they did i've never read this before i just kind of no hearsay
seven days from now i will make the rains pour down on the earth and it will rain for 40 days and 40 nights until i
have wiped from the earth all the living things i have created okay
okay so did you think a duck could live for like i mean i think a duck could probably live not on the boat right and
wait what about the the fish and the sea he's saying all life right it's not going to wipe out the fish in the sea
it's not going to wipe out the fish in the sea but again that might have been on purpose because they couldn't also
come on the boat right so he might have given them a pass right yeah maybe when he means all life he means
all life but sea creatures they're good right i guess he could have done like a fire
if he really wanted to like get everybody gone right
my cat meowing yeah meow so um did you know though that there
have been um things found that do prove that there was a giant flood back then
uh yeah but i mean it's also a localized thing it's not
like right right no it was in the area that they consider to be the entire planet right the entire planet being the
middle east that little continent section right yeah yeah i mean
okay so there was a flood there was a flood call me shocked no i mean i'm not
saying that that proves the entire bible i'm just saying it is interesting that there was a flood
sure as there might be there was also dinosaurs there was also dinosaurs and they did not make it onto the boat i
noticed so noah did everything as the lord commanded him noah was 600 years old
when the flood covered the earth he went on board the boat to escape the flood he and his wife and his sons and
their wives no more though right no grandkids with them were all the various kinds of
animals those approved for eating and for sacrifice and those that were not along with all the birds and the small
animals that scurry along the ground repetitive much they entered the boat in pairs male and
female just as god had commanded noah after seven days the waters of the flood came and covered the earth
good grief i thought that there was like this whole section of the bible where noah like argued with his neighbors and
stuff i mean i kind of recall that as well but maybe that's more like a side story or something is that either a
side story that we'll read about later or is that like a side something to do with the versions that we're reading or
maybe it's a side story that was made up that were confusing as biblical that
actually wasn't from the bible but was something that you know well you know how like u.s history books gloss over the fact that
you know slavery and civil rights and voting rights and you know and they call it states rights and then racism etc
yeah maybe the bible like because i know there's like children's versions out there and stuff maybe the bible has a
similar like rewriting of history like here's the happy fun version and it's more storyline like not that you know
killing everybody is fine i was gonna say could you imagine if this was the happy version what must the bad grown-up
version look like but but but in order to make it palatable you got to make sure you demonize those people in the
children's eye to make it worthy you can't just say and god just decided to kill everybody right that the end
although i mean that's kind of what this does right no he that's what it says in there i'm saying like the children's bible
though like there may there's other versions out there that might be like hey let's make this a little bit more
palatable and not you know um just straight up massacring all of humanity that the parts that we remember
with noah arguing with his neighbors and building the ark may be um some
uh creative license that was taken later possibly if anybody knows please reach out to us
and enlighten us well i mean we're going to keep reading so maybe well yeah we'll come across it but yeah um
i would love answers to all of our questions because like seriously we just don't believe in god and we this is our
first time reading through the bible so this is not convincing we did not research this ahead of time we're just kind of commenting on the way through
yeah and uh we're a little bit confused because we are a lot confused well we're confused though based on what we have
you know gleaned through our life versus what is being said here because it's just like one two three go kill all the
people right and the story like you and i have heard is more like all these
people were being really shitty and they were partying and killing people and war and blah blah blah blah and then they
spent time pleading to get on the ship and and he spent time arguing with them before the flood came
and you know there was all this whole thing there's this whole thing maybe there's stories to come maybe let's find
out all right when noah was 600 years old on the 17th day of the second month
all the underground waters erupted from the earth and the rain fell in mighty torrents from the sky
jack torrance jack torrance he's the guy from the shining yeah i know what does that have
to do with the bible the mighty torrance fell from the sky the mighty jack torrance were raining down got it
okay that was a reach but i can't hear the word torrent without thinking of the shining
the rain continued to fall for 40 days and 40 nights that very day noah had
gone into the boat with his wife and his sons shem ham and japheth and their wives with them in the boat were pairs
of every kind of animal domestic and wild large and small along with birds of every kind oh my god this is like the
fifth time we've had to cover this right they just want to make sure real good that we got those things on the boat got
this two by two they came into the boat representing every living thing that breathes a male and female of each kind
entered just as god had commanded noah then the lord closed the door behind them the lord closed the door the lord
closed the door damn that like that special treatment right there i know i didn't really service
right like he came down and he shut it himself he's like all right get going huh here
comes the rain [Music] for 40 days the flood waters grew deeper
covering the ground and lifting the boat high above the earth 40 days and 40 nights don't forget that part very
important but this just says 40 days on this particular verse as the waters rose higher and higher
above the ground the boat floated safely on the surface finally the water covered even the
highest mountains on the earth rising more than 22 feet above the highest peaks oh my gosh how did they measure
that do you think they got a stick out and we're like yep that's 22 feet only back then it would have been cubits so
he would had to use his elbow and his fingertip
that's pretty deep how do you think he survived that dive he swam down 22 feet
just to measure how and how do they know it was the highest mountain did they like were they traversing the entire earth
ain't no mountain high enough yeah i don't know i call [ __ ] on
this i call [ __ ] on this also finally the water covered even the highest mountains on the earth rising
more than 22 feet above the highest peaks all the living things on earth died birds domestic animals wild animals
small animals that scurry along the ground and all the people except for the ones on the ship that's
really sad everything that breathed and lived on dry land died god wiped out
every living thing on the earth people livestock small animals that scurry along the ground and the birds of the
sky all were destroyed the only people who survived were noah and those with him on
the boat and the flood waters covered the earth for 150 days and the sea creatures don't forget about the sea
creatures they live too but this is sad i know but you know this is stupid
though like he killed all the the furry animals the scream along the earth and the
birds and all this [ __ ] because they were on land with his human beings that he created right not because
they were bad right but because they were on land with the other humans right
but he let all the sea creatures live right because he didn't have a way to flood the things that are already in the
flood so he killed some animals but not all animals and he only killed him because
he wanted to kill us i'm sorry human beings yeah not me right
i wasn't there no we weren't there no that's the end of the chapter but i just
i hate leaving off on such a and he killed them all the end right mass murder our god okay see you next
