Close to Home by John McPherson for September 25, 2024

should have killed the two mosquitoes when they had the chance…

Who are they (who are saying that)? Where are they?

[Everyone who is not on the ark has drowned by now.]

Oh, that should make the story more believable. NOT!

It seems more likely they’ll get eighty days worth of rainfall in only one day.

But only close to the source waters. You could probably just build a compound a bit inland, away from the coastal cities where all the people of the world lived before roads were a thing.

Unless ‘they’ are the wise owls, I would just consider it a rumor and let everyone off at the next mountain.

You’ll notice that only the snakes are pairing together…

I think that is the smallest ark ever depicted.

It only rained in Mesopotamia anyway. Noah didn’t need to go to Africa to round up more animals.

That’s it then…

… flip a coin to see who feeds the lion!

Imagine the poop shoveling on that boat. It would be a full-time job for all humans on board.

Where are the mosquitoes and ticks?

It is always cooler when it rains, not warmer.

There’s no such thing as global warming. At least that’s what all my diehard Republican friends say.

Bleeb is safe on Noah’s shoulders.

That’s according to NOAH Weather Radio.

Is that Noah and another dude? How’s that going to work?

You can bet that when that forty days and forty nights of rain began the weatherman said it was going to be sunny and nice all day—which just proves that even back they they didn’t get it right. :-P

The bible is full of ridiculous stories.

You can believe that there is not God, and you can believe that there is no such thing as manmade global weather change.

You can be wrong, but just realize that at some point you will have to face the consequences of your decisions.

I mishit would start, the PNW is drying out.

There is only one Bleep on the ark.

Wanna take a rainy 80 day cruise? I Noah guy!

Gonna need the super duty pooper scooper.

The boss said 40 days, I think he knows what he is doing.

Noah’s Ark was just a low-budget Jaws prequel missing a shark.

Salivating at those 2 chickens….

The Bible says that there was an expanse of water below and one above Genesis 1:6-8. That was part of the water loosed during the flood. There was a torrential downpour for 40 days and 40 nights also and the water overwhelmed the earth for 150 days Genesis 7:24. Yes, the dead are conscious of nothing right now Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10 but awaiting resurrection to earth John 5:28, 29. Jesus showed his power over death when he raised several people from the dead and which he will do in the future. He would have had no need to resurrect any dead if they were in heaven.

Here’s a thought… for those that don’t believe, then, don’t believe. For those that do, keep on, keeping on, but, there should be respect for both points of view, and beliefs, without being bad-mouthed for anyone’s choice. This has been a public service announcement. We now return you to your regularly scheduled comics, thank you.
