"And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is
come before me; for the earth is filled with violence
through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with
the earth. Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms
shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it
within and without with pitch."
       Genesis 6:13-14

It will flood.

Hm.

Fancy yourself an Enoch?

[rlyahero]

Hardly.

[hellblazingly]

I think you just proved why those fuckers really needed an editor.

[rlyahero]

Come on now, this was from the earliest of man's written works.

[hellblazingly]

Doesn't mean I'm gonna forgive the wording of "pitch with pitch". Especially when they manage to write coherently in other parts.

[exchevalier]

You can only do so much with translations, especially coming from a language with relatively few words. At least the vowels were different in the original.

[albionwhite]

And do you suppose we should build some sort of shelter akin to the ark?

[rlyahero]

I think perhaps if we stay away from the river, we will at least be able to not suffer destruction.
