About the Flood really being tsunami resulting from the collapse of the cone of the volcano Mount Etna (in Sicily?). So he goes to Israel and they find some bones at an underwater site that would have been above water at the time in question. He interviews some expert (in Cyprus, IIRC) who told him that prehistoric people were capable of building ships that could carry animals. And suddenly we've got Noah's Ark. Ole Josh was flying a bit loose and furious with the logic on that one.

(sigh) It's a wonder we're not back living in caves already. :roll:
the Flood might be based on the Gilgamesh saga.

(Oh ... is that dissin' Moshe and da Torah? :roll: )

(I don't, really. ;) Hey, I have my own set of irrational and idiotic fantasies and delusions, why should I begrudge others theirs? :D )

(And I mistyped above; should have been "M-she" and "T-rah". :P )
