I note those living in Queensland Australia are calling their floods "biblical."

Now, that's interesting. Aborigines have been there longer than the ark fairy stories, so factoring that into the equation you get..

Even more bollocks.

Biblical eh? A useful word, meaning extraordinary or beyond comprehension. Says it all really. It isn't the first (or last) time that fairy stories can impact on reality. There is (or was) a Sherlock Holmes exhibition on Baker St in London.

No problem with people saying "I believe" as I believe in Sheffield Wednesday despite results that test the faith.

What I do have a problem with however is the tedium of superstitious people thrusting their delusions on others in the belief that they are relevant to non members. Pretending that all things were on the ark is nice, in the same way that Santa coming down the chimney is nice. Trying to relate in in the real world though is where I stop nodding sagely and start pointing and laughing. Sorry, but that's how it is.
