Oh dear.

Just two questions-

if the globe flooded,

The story of Moses is generally .

The origin can be looked for in Mesopotamia, where flooding was a regular occurence,



By the way, how are your bees?

if the globe flooded, where's the water now?

It was stolen by thirsty aliens visiting the earth.

and pissed then here


At least here it has rained down. Soil is full. Ditches are full. Lakes are full.

Impossible to say where is water now.

Flooding in Western Finland September 2012

we flood more or less every year somewhere in england. I was caught up in the Sheffied floods where a couple of people lost their lives. You soft southeners probably know nothing about that as there was barely any coverage on southern news as they were too busy covering a street in london that had a puddle bigger than usual.

Better than the Imprezza, IMO.

Last winter I read from forum that you must give water to bees because England is so dry.

In western Finland lanscape is special The ground is coming up still after Ice Age. So land is near to slant wrong direction. Water running is slow. But who obey to live in flooding area? It is not secret where floods exist.

I have heard that in England reason for flooding is that all landscape is full of ditches,. When rain comes, it runs quickly away via ditches and makes flood.

Oh dear.

Just two questions- if the globe flooded, where's the water now? And given that there are around 10,000,000 animal species in the world, many not found in the middle east, just how did Noah save all the world's animals, and in a boat less than 150m long?

The story of Moses is generally reckoned to be a re-hashing of the story of Utnapishtim in the epic of Gilgamesh, dating from around 2,000 BC, where the details of the ark are similar, but it is due to bickering between the gods- Enlil trying to destroy humanity, and Ea trying to frustrate him.

The origin can be looked for in Mesopotamia, where flooding was a regular occurence, and anyone with the resources would put their family and livestock (or at least breeding pairs) on a raft until the flood subsided.

By the way, how are your bees?

Thanks for asking, they are great masses of pollen coming in, making the most of this lovely weather, just finished feeding them and hives are feeling quite heavy, hows yours Skyhook hope their fine

Hi Tonybloke and Pbee (and others). Been around for a while but not written much yet. When I have a bit more experience with our first hive I may have more to say about bees.

Regarding evolution - something I am called on to teach on occasions - the 'gaps in the fossil record' are being closed all the time.

Apart from that I have a number of religious friends but none of them creationists. We discuss religion and creation etc. but manage to do so without falling out.

There are probably better things to fall out over on this forum?

Yes, if AMM are really better bees than other strains.

Hi Ray we don't fall out....... not very often we just exchange ideas and thoughts I am not a creationist or a evolutionist just thought where do honey bees come from, it all got a bit heated, all arguments have two sides but some have no endings.

Corr!! that will open a can of worms.......

Better is in the eye of the beholder

 

[PBee]

Keep left everyone ..... this may be it .....

.In one single event, the saved who are alive at Christ's coming will be caught up together with the resurrected to meet the Lord in the air. "Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord." —1 Thessalonians 4:17

What a coup for the forum!

Sprung back nicely from mite treatment, with some good late brood. Some are a bit lighter than I'd like so I'm going to close them down with a big lump of fondant each.

I'm a huge fan of Darwin, the man was a genius. To me evolution seems so obviously one of the great driving forces of the world around us, like gravity (except that I understand evolution!), and although I know there are people who don't believe in it, it comes as a shock to come across the reality.
