Here's an interesting 3500+ year old quote:
Genesis 7
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, on the seventeenth day of the second month-on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.
In your best scientific opinion, what is happening in that passage?
NOTE: Organized religion sucks, but the bible is kind of interesting what with all it's crazy high tech events going on.
