      Out of all the Bible things Noah’s ark sounds a lot like your run-of-the-mill fairy-tale so it’s hard to see it upsetting anyone

        Well, it is a story about God flooding the entire earth and sparing only one family because humanity was too sinful. A bit less Disney and a bit more brothers’ Grimm.

          It’s a make-believe genocide, so unless you think it truly happened then I’m not sure what there is to be upset about.

              I’m not sure it is upsetting to those who believe it. Christians seem to think of it as an uplifting story. I feel like you’d have to believe it happened but not be Christian (or other religion that includes it) to be upset about it. But that’d be a strange combo.
