Gawd Bless QI

Stephen Fry on QI tonight pointed out that in the tale of Genesis seven of each kind of "clean" animal was taken on the ark (under kosher law) and two of the "unclean".

Try pointing this out to the next Christian you meet and see what they say. Bet they didn't know it. Some may say its homosexual propaganda... so just tell them to look it up.

Oh, and I doubt this was three couples and an extra one... I would bet in the world of reproductive economies it was one male and six females to better propagate the species quickly.

I bet they won't admit it calls into question their entire belief structure, as does say, Dawkins pointing out that "virgin" in the sense of the virgin Mary should have been translated as "VirginAL".

Oh, and also that in the Bible it is Mary who is immaculately conceived rather than Jesus.

Now, seeing as how the entire belief system is based on a book that may well have been seriously mistranslated and has not been read by half the people who follow it... how does that make you feel?
