Noah seemed like a chill dude. Man liked his drink, for sure. Loved animals...

[-] 768@sh.itjust.works 38 points 2 years ago

Noah would've been a genocide-complicit, doomsday cult prepper, similar to those who build private libertarian cities on the ocean or some planet as a climate adaptation strategy.

Noah was the original Joe Exotic, except with every single exotic pet in existence

Noah brought along mosquitos, the guy is filled with hate

Not sure he could have kept them off the boat.

Not sure if you read your history book (the Bible), but he only brought 2 of everything. Including mosquitoes, flies, tardigrades, etc. Everything else died.

Not sure if you read your history book (the Bible), but he brought seven pairs of clean animals and birds (Gen 7:2-3).

Yeah, not sure if you’re intending to be combative, but not every Christian believes that flood narrative is literal historical account.

I was just being a little silly.

I was just joshing

Wasn't he the one that banged his daughters? Idk there was a few of those types in the bible.

[-] SlikPikker@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago

Lot.

And actually, to be "fair" to him, his daughters raped him.

As written it's not strictly his fault. Even if his parenting skills clearly lack.

[-] brisk@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago

As written the only person who could have communicated that story is Lot himself. Coming out of the desert with only your two daughters and two babies seems like it might be good motivation to embellish

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

If you are here asking: "Is this a science meme?"

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn't need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn't a filing cabinet of facts, it's a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what's under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.

See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.
