Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for May 31, 2016

He could’ve at least thrown them a couple of life jackets.

On the other hand, Rat and Pig don’t have to survive for 40 days on a boat with every carnivore in the world.

What good is it to be holier-than-thou if you can’t rub their faces in it?

Woah, what that Noah guy said was true? Better build myself an ark!

How fast is that ark moving? And who knew that Noah enjoyed water-skiing?How long can you guys swim and float, Rat and Pig?

I have the old Bill Crosby “Noah” going in my mind. "How long can you tread water ? "…………

That’s not Noah, it’s Kevin Costner.

Unfortunately, the only way to move the water from the seas to inland fresh water reserves is by warming the seas, and that will probably result in a new ice age in ten or fifteen thousand years.See ya! Wouldn’t want to be ya!

Smell ya later!

LOVE Ricky Gervais’s take on the book of Noah from his childhood. YouTube if you have never seen it – makes me laugh so loud my dog starts howling!

The Ark myth was borrowed from the Sumerians. Ziusudra is the Sumerian Noah.

That ark looks pretty empty…so who’s steering the ark if noah’s water-skiing? his dog?

If this happens, the price of waterfront properties will go down.

Forget Rat. SAVE THE BACON!!!

For the ark to travel that fast, it must be pulled by the Lock Ness Monster.

Just read The Rocks Don’t Lie recently, which gives the history of various cultural flood myths. The book answers a lot of questions raised by posters here over the past two days. Forget Bill Nye, I would have liked to see Ken Ham debate the author of this book.

I always liked the fact that the protagonist of the Aztec flood story was also named “Noah.”

All over the world there are shells in sandstone and other rocks on top of mountains. How did they get there? Well if you are like Nebbuk, exoticdoc2 and other Bible thumpers who don’t know squat about geology (or lived in ancient times), you’re going to guess there was a big flood at one time and one of your ancestors evidently built a boat to save themselves and other land animals.

Loved the ark story when I was a child, but then I put away childish things…..

Never knew Noah was such a jerk! I can understand wanting to leave Rat behind but Pig?

Noah? Didn’t he marry Elsie Tanner?

At least the crocs are going to be okay.

Wow! God created Global Warming. Good thing there was no New York city to flood.

What do you know, and PBS arc with an ark
